Colorful 1866 Seated Dollar, PR66
First With Motto Proof Issue

1866 $1 Motto PR66 PCGS. The motto IN GOD WE TRUST made the jump from two cent copper to the larger silver and gold denominations in 1866. The year's proof issues made for general distribution are all With Motto, to the tune of 725 pieces in the case of the Seated dollar. This is a dramatically toned Premium Gem specimen with fascinating eye appeal. Dappled violet-gray and powder-blue shadings form a backdrop for the brick-red color that covers much of the central obverse. On the reverse, the muted colors give way to more vibrant pools of blue-green and green-gold. Carefully preserved with suggestions of frost on the boldly impressed central devices, a suggestion of past contrast. Population: 2 in 66, 0 finer (6/10).(Registry values: N7079)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 252M, PCGS# 7014, Greysheet# 7323)
