1857 Seated Dollar, MS64 Prooflike
Reflective and Appealing

1857 $1 MS64 Prooflike NGC. OC-2, R.3. Osburn-Cushing Die State a/a, perfect dies. The 1857 Seated Liberty dollar boasts a limited mintage of 94,000 pieces, although Mint State examples can be located with some patience. While many of the Uncirculated coins known exhibit some field reflectivity, those mirrored enough to warrant a Prooflike designation are rare. NGC lists just 10 Prooflike coins in all grades, and PCGS two; one a single one of those pieces is numerically finer than the present (1/23). This piece displays frosty devices and exceptionally reflective fields, with hints of lilac-gold color. Light, scattered marks are not bothersome. Moderate strike weakness is seen as usual, affecting Liberty's head and foot, the stars, and the eagle's left (facing) talons and wing. Census: 4 in 64 Prooflike, 1 finer (1/23).

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24YW, PCGS# 86945, Greysheet# 213900)
