1844 'Quad Stripes' Seated Dollar, AU58

1844 $1 AU58 ANACS. Breen-5431. The so-called "Quad Stripes" (Bowers-Borckardt) variety, as apparently on all business strikes, also called the "armpit variety" by Breen. The shield stripes on the obverse are quadrupled from die-doubling, and an extra top loop of the 8 appears in the bottom folds of Liberty's gown. The reverse shows many die file lines under the eagle's left (facing) wing (and quite a few under the right wing), and in-between the shield stripes on the reverse. This piece is silver-white with a touch of amber-gold around the rims, and it retains essentially all of its original luster. The small mintage of 20,000 coins makes this an in-demand issue at the near-Mint State level.(Registry values: N991)
