Losbeschreibung

1846 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-2. Rarity-2. Repunched Date. MS-63 (NGC). A satiny and otherwise brilliant example, the reverse exhibits the lightest golden-rose iridescence at indirect lighting angles. Sharply defined with a pleasing appearance, the surfaces are smoother than one might expect for a No Motto Liberty Seated dollar at the MS-63 grade level. After delivering only 20,000 and 24,500 coins in 1844 and 1845, respectively, demand from bullion depositors rose in 1846, and the Philadelphia Mint struck 110,600 silver dollars for commercial use. While this issue is one of the most plentiful form its era in grades such as VF and EF, in Mint State the 1846 is a significant condition rarity. Provenance: From The Des Moines Collection. NGC Census: 12; 24 finer (MS-65+ finest). PCGS# 6932. NGC ID: 24YG. Click here for certification details from NGC.
