Description
1858 Seated Dollar, Original PR64
Series Key, Proof-Only Issue
1858 $1 PR64 CACG. OC-P1, Low R.4. Osburn-Cushing Die State
a/a. As a proof-only issue, the 1858 Seated dollar is one of the
most-sought dates in the Seated dollar series. The
seateddollarvarieties.com website estimates 275 original proofs and
35 restrike proofs were struck. The original proofs and the
restrikes share the same obverse die, with the original proofs
having the reverse used to strike 1856 and 1857 original proofs as
well as the 1859 regular issue proofs. Diagnostic die lumps exist
on the L of DOL. and the first S of STATES. This reverse was later
used for restrike proofs dated 1851, 1852, and 1854. A few 1858
restrike proofs exist employing an 1859 reverse die -- the
Osburn-Cushing website estimates five restrike proofs from the
OC-P2 die pair survive. The overwhelming majority of 1858 proofs
are from the original proof dies, although it is possible some
OC-P1 proofs could have been struck at a later date. The unfinished
are beneath Liberty's chin is key to determining when the proofs
were struck. This OC-P1 example has a wide unfinished area beneath
the chin confirming its status as an original proof. Boldly
reflective fields surround lightly frosted central motifs on this
near-Gem proof. Sharply struck as expected, the coin is richly
toned in blue and gray shades, with ivory-gold obverse accents and
additional amber-gold and reddish hues on the reverse. This
attractive Choice proof example is housed in a new CACG
holder.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 252C, PCGS# 7001, Greysheet# 7298)
