Lot Description

1869 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-P3. Rarity-4. Doubled Die Reverse. Proof-64 (NGC). Wisps of iridescent olive-copper and sandy-gold toning enhance otherwise silver-tinged surfaces. This is a sharply struck coin with modest, yet appreciable field-to-device contrast evident at direct lighting angles. 600 Proof dollars were struck by the Philadelphia Mint in 1869 from four distinct die pairs. The OC-P3 variety, as offered here, is one of three identified as a Doubled Die Reverse, which feature is boldest at the letters IN in the motto IN GOD WE TRUST. PCGS# 7017. NGC ID: 252R.
