Description
1853 Seated Dollar, MS64
Elusive in Higher Grades
1853 $1 Chin Whiskers, OC-1, R.2, MS64 NGC. A Top 30
Variety. Osburn-Cushing Die State c/b. A single die pair struck the
entire 46,110-piece mintage. The 1853 Seated dollar earns its Chin
Whiskers moniker thanks to the crudely unfinished area below
Liberty's chin. This is a late die state, with a die crack
connecting stars 1 to 7 and die clashing seen on both sides. Myriad
heavy die polish lines angle upward through the reverse shield.
Copper-gold, red, and blue toning accents both the obverse and the
reverse, with a few pinpoint marks seen on Liberty's portrait. The
fields are smooth and lustrous. This near-Gem Uncirculated piece is
boldly struck except at the right-side stars. There are no heavy
abrasions or marks on the pleasing, original surfaces. Census: 31
in 64, 2 finer (4/25).From The Pelican Bay Collection, Part II.
