Description

Part of 1873 Proof Set

1873 $1 Seated Dollar PR63+ NGC. All letters of IN GOD WE TRUST and the ribbon that carries the motto are doubled, more prominent to the left. This same reverse die was used earlier in 1871 and 1872, and also appears on some silver dollar patterns. A second reverse die was also used for the 1873 Seated silver dollar proofs, combined with a single obverse die. The relative scarcity of the two proof varieties is unknown. Both sides have the usual trivial blemishes that prevent a higher grade. However, the aesthetic presentation is exceptional with rich turquoise and reddish-gold toning blended together on both sides. Every aspect of the strike is crisp, with bold design definition.(Registry values: N2998)
