Description
1846 Seated Liberty Dollar, PR58
Lightly Toned, Rare Early Proof Survivor
1846 $1 PR58 PCGS. OC-P1, Low R.6. Ex: Dick Osburn and the
Osburn-Cushing Reference Collections. OC Die State a/a. Plated in
the OC reference, A Register of Die Varieties. This is a
briefly circulated original proof that displays the entire date
widely mispunched south, most visibly on the 846. It is recorded as
a Top-30 Variety, and the reverse of this coin was used to
illustrate the well-known reverse die from 1840 in the
Osburn-Cushing reference, used to strike most original proofs from
1840 through 1854. The proof mintage for 1846 is estimated at 35
pieces, of which about 25 examples survive -- to date, all from the
OC-P1 die pair. This is a mirrored and flashy coin, with light rub
and/or cabinet friction on Liberty's leg and scattered, tiny field
abrasions. A razor-sharp strike accompanies light golden-gray
toning. Population: 1 in 58, 8 finer (6/18).From The Dick Osburn Collection. (Registry values: N1)
