Description
1851 Seated Dollar Restrike, PR62 Cameo
Strong Contrast and Eye Appeal
1851 $1 Restrike PR62 Cameo NGC. Restrikes, such as this
piece, as distinguished from the original strike examples due to
the centered date as opposed to the high date present on the
originals. The consensus is that all 1851 Original dollars were
produced as business strikes, while all 1851 Restrike dollars were
coined as proofs. This representative displays readily apparent
Cameo contrast and a sharp strike, providing this coin with a
strong degree of visual appeal. Both sides exhibit toning, with the
colors more apparent on the reverse, including hues of peach and
teal. Moderate hairlines contributed to the grade of this piece.
Census: 1 in 62 Cameo, 3 finer (2/14).From the Collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation.
