Description
1854 Seated Dollar, PR64
A Rarely Encountered Pre-1858 Date
1854 $1 PR64 NGC. Vivid aquamarine and olive-gold embraces
this fully struck and beautifully preserved Choice proof Seated
dollar. A small granular area beneath the first T in STATES
provides an identifier as well as a tight cluster of darker spots
to the right of the eagle's neck. Struck from the usual proof
obverse die with what Bowers (1993) calls "a triangular raised
defect or 'island' above and to the right of the numeral 5 in the
date." Duncan Lee (2006) suggests the defect is the top of a
misplaced 4. It may also represent an upper left fragment of the
crosslet of a misplaced 4. The reverse die has a light horizontal
die line beneath the E in ONE. As is the case with all pre-1858
proofs of the series, the 1854 is very rare and highly desirable.
