1844 $1 PR64 NGC. As one would expect, the 1844 Seated dollar is a rare coin in proof format. Mintage estimates vary between 15 and 30 pieces with Bowers coming down (as usual) on the higher end of this range. Many, if not most, Seated dollars from the 1840s were struck with a semi-prooflike finish in the fields. Usually there is little confusion between business strikes and proofs, but in case there is a question about the status of any 1844 dollar, it can be quickly determined. Business strikes of this date have four elements in the vertical stripes on the obverse shield, whereas proofs display three elements. In the November 1977 Gobrecht Journal there was a report of almost two dozen three-element 1844 dollars, all grading Fine or less. This, of course, brings up the question of whether these pieces may have been circulated proofs. This report has not been confirmed since.

One does not need to count the number of elements on the obverse shield to know that this is an unquestioned proof. The fields display the deep reflectivity that only a proof coin possesses. Additionally, the design shows pinpoint striking definition in all areas. Close examination shows light hairlining, but the effects are greatly minimized by the rich golden-brown and blue toning seen on both obverse and reverse. Another very rare opportunity to acquire an early proof Seated dollar. Census: 2 in 64, 1 finer (11/06). (PCGS# 6985)

Auction 190 | Lot 8191 » Silver and Related Dollars » Seated Dollars
1844 PR 64. Of the greatest rarity and importance, an unknown but obviously very small number of proofs were struck this year. The only reasonable estimate about the number believed extant today was Breen (1977) who believed 8-10 pieces may still exist. This is the first proof we have handled in at least six years (and probably much longer).
Proofs of 1844 all have a common characteristic: the vertical shield stripes have the normal three lines. Business strikes, on the other hand, have four. The fields are deeply reflective and a partial wire rim encircles each side. A few small abrasions can be located which account for the grade, the most obvious being a small cluster above the eagle's head. Lightly toned over each side. From the extraordinary Riverly Collection.

1844 $1--Cleaned--ANACS. Net PR60. An elusive early proof striking from an unknown, but obviously very small number of specimens produced this year. The only reasonable estimate about the number believed extant today was Breen (1977) who believed 8-10 pieces may still exist. Proofs of 1844 can easily be distinguished from business strikes by the vertical shield stripes, each has three lines on proofs whereas business strikes display four. The gunmetal surfaces have subdued reflectivity and are noticeably mishandled, with a few scattered scratches and contact marks in the fields. (PCGS# 6985)
