Lot Description

1846-O Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. MS-60 (NGC). CAC. OH. Attractive silver-gold and gray patina spans the surfaces with enough luster peeking through to reflect the light. The strike is fairly sharp on the central devices but a trifle soft on Liberty's head, as is common to this issue. Scattered light nicks are present as well as light wipe lines, but these all blend into the ancient patina with ease. Scarce as a date and seldom found appreciably finer or more appealing than this example. A condition rarity in any Mint State grade and certainly most of the examples will not have the handsome patina noted on this pleasing coin.
