Description
1855 Seated Dollar, XF Detail
Semikey With 26,000 Coins Produced
1855 $1 -- Improperly Cleaned -- NGC Details. XF. OC-1, High
R.3. The only known dies. A mintage of 25,000 coins and a small
survivorship of about 300 pieces ensures the 1855's status as a
semikey date among Seated dollars. Examples are almost invariably
softly struck, but this XF coin shows partial radials on the stars
despite minor blending from circulation. Evidence of an old
cleaning is apparent, and small bumps and ticks are noted around
the obverse rim, but these issues are not overly detracting. This
remains a pleasing and highly collectible example of a challenging
date.From the Dr. Bruce Mesara Collection.
