Description:

Outstanding 1861 Seated Dollar, PR66 Cameo

1861 $1 PR66 Cameo NGC. The 1,000-coin proof mintage of the 1861 Seated dollar was the second highest annual total of the No Motto type. The proof dollar was originally offered as part of proof sets, but both Bowers (2006) and Breen (1988) estimate than only 300-350 coins were sold, and the rest melted. This coin exhibits a sharp strike and clean surfaces, except for a few minor marks on and around Liberty's knees. Rings of iridescent copper and electric-blue on both sides frame pinkish-golden centers. Over 200 proof coins have been certified for the date by both NGC and PCGS, 29 receiving the Cameo designation. NGC has graded two as PR66 Cameo, with none finer from either service (8/08). (#87004)
