Description
1868 Seated Dollar, PR65
Original Toning, Ex: Eliasberg
1868 $1 PR65 NGC. OC-P2, High R.3. Ex: Eliasberg. The
Eliasberg proof comes with an intriguing pedigree that traces to Ed
Frossard's sale of the Friesner Collection in June 1894, where it
realized $1.50. Collector demand for 1868 proof dollars has
increased substantially since then, and this piece is among the
most visually pleasing examples that we have seen in PR65 without a
Cameo designation. Light golden interiors cede to violet, rose, and
blue border toning. The strike is bold, and subtle contrast is
visible on the obverse. Census: 30 in 65, 13 finer; 6 in 65 (1 in
65 ★ ) Cameo, 7 finer; 1 in 65 Ultra Cameo, 2 finer
(7/18).Ex: William M. Friesner Collection (Frossard, 6/1894), lot 170, which realized $1.50; J.M. Clapp; John H. Clapp; Clapp Estate to Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. (1942); Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. Collection (Bowers and Merena, 4/1997), lot 2239, which realized $8,800; Central States Signature (Heritage, 4/2006), lot 2207, which realized $8,050.
