Description
Rare 1854 Dollar
1854 $1 AU 50 Cleaned. Although this date shows a mintage figure of 33,140 pieces, which is higher than many of its contemporaries, the 1854 has long been recognized as a rarity. One explanation for the scarcity of this date is that most of the pieces were shipped overseas to China as soon as they were made. Walter Breen noted that 10,000 silver dollars bearing this date were shipped to San Francisco in November, 1854. This piece has been cleaned as described, but the net effect is neither devastating nor overly distracting.Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24YT, PCGS# 6942, GSID# 7204)
