Description
1859 Seated Dollar, MS64
Infrequently Offered in Mint Condition
1859 $1 MS64 NGC. CAC. The mintage of the 1859 Seated dollar
was a substantial 256,500 pieces. With such a large number struck,
the 1859 should be abundantly available in high grades. However,
the story of these coins is not simply one of large mintage
equaling large availability. Rather, most of those produced were
exported to northern China where they were subsequently chopmarked
or converted to bullion again. The result is that few 1859 dollars
are known to collectors today (not to be confused with the
frequently available 1859-O). This near-Gem is brilliant and well
struck, except on the head of Liberty and uppermost stars. A few
shallow marks are scattered across the obverse and account for the
grade. Census: 15 in 64, 0 finer (11/13).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 24YX, PCGS# 6946, Greysheet# 7208)
