Description
1852 Silver Dollar, PR60
Restrike, Reverse of 1859
1852 $1 Restrike PR60 NGC. Researchers agree that all proof
1852 Seated dollars were struck from the same obverse die. More
than one reverse is known. Possibly, all proofs are restrikes,
struck after 1852. This was the opinion of David Akers, though
Breen believed that some proofs were originals. The present lot is
struck from the same reverse die as the proof 1859 dollar, and was
probably coined circa-1859, contemporary with the Snow-9 1856
Flying Eagle cents and other unofficial restrike activity at the
Mint. This is a fully struck and lightly toned specimen with a
glimpse of peach-gold and navy-blue at the left obverse margin. A
loupe reveals only minor hairlines and a hair-thin mark on the
field near the dentils at 4 o'clock on the reverse.From the collection of Donald E. Bently, sold for the benefit of the Bently Foundation.(Registry values: N7079)
