Description
Premium Gem Proof 1862 Seated Dollar
1862 $1 PR66 NGC. The financial pressures of the Civil War
brought about the suspension of specie payments in 1862, increasing
the expense and difficulty of ordering proof sets during that era.
Only 550 proof Seated Liberty dollars were struck, and some of them
may have been melted. In addition, only 11,540 business-strike
dollars were produced, putting significant date-collector pressure
on the small supply of proofs. The 1862 is always in demand in
today's market.This example is a spectacular Premium Gem with sharply detailed design elements throughout and pristine, deeply mirrored fields. The surfaces are blanketed in attractive shades of champagne-gold and cerulean-blue toning. Eye appeal is terrific. Census: 9 in 66 (2 in 66+), 0 finer (11/12).
