Description
Flashy, Low-Mintage 1862 Silver Dollar, MS64
1862 $1 MS64 NGC. The Mint's effort at keeping gold and silver coins circulating during the Civil War was a fruitless effort. By midyear banks and even the U.S. Treasury had stopped paying out gold and silver coins at face value. The mintage of 1862 silver dollars was a token 11,500 coins. This attractive silver-gold near-Gem example has a strike that is close to full, with only minimal high-point abrasions, chiefly on the obverse, that account for the grade. As one would expect from a coin with such a low mintage, the fields are brightly reflective, even through the toning present on each side.
