1852 Seated Dollar, PR62
Major Series Key
Sharp Proof Restrike

1852 $1 Restrike PR62 PCGS. OC-P3, High R.5. Osburn-Cushing Die State a/a. The reverse die offers immediate confirmation of this 1852 proof as a restrike. The die was previously used to strike the regular 1859 proof Seated dollars, as well as restrike proofs dated 1851, 1854, and 1858. Die lumps in the eagle's left (facing) wing feathers are distinctive and easily confirm this coin's proof restrike status, since the obverse die was used for all 1852 die marriages -- proofs and circulation strikes. A thin veil of reddish-gold patina provides extra eye appeal across the nearly chromelike silver surfaces of this highly reflective surfaces. The strike is needle-sharp. Dick Osburn's research suggests a restrike proof mintage of about 65 pieces, with about 45 examples surviving today. Only a tiny number of 1852 proofs are considered originals -- the vast majority are restrikes and still highly sought for this rare Seated dollar date.
