Description
Select Mint State 1843 Seated Dollar
Original Surfaces
1843 $1 MS63 NGC. Despite its status as the most easily
obtainable Seated dollar from the 1840s in circulated grades, the
1843 (165,100 pieces produced) is anything but common in Mint
State. In fact, this issue is a significant rarity in grades above
the MS63 level of preservation. The present example displays dusky
tan-gray obverse toning that deepens somewhat around the
peripheries. The reverse is patinated in dappled cobalt-blue and
slate-gray colors. Both sides display the usually seen
semireflective fields, a common trait on Seated dollars of the era.
Well struck for the type with a few obverse abrasions that are
rather well concealed by the toning scheme. Census: 10 in 63, 6
finer (10/12).Ex: New York Signature (Heritage, 7/2002), lot 8714; Long Beach Signature (Heritage, 9/2006), lot 2434.(Registry values: N2998)
