- 1846 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-2. Rarity-2. AU-58+ (PCGS).
Really a pretty piece, and an exceptionally well preserved example of this otherwise readily obtainable 1840s silver dollar issue. Vivid, mottled toning in russet, olive and steel-blue enlivens a base of antique silver tinting. Sharply struck and intensely lustrous with modest semi-reflective tendencies in the fields. A shallow obverse scuff inside star 12 is noted for accuracy, although it is of no concern in any discussion regarding this coin's eye appeal. 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 from its era in grades such as VF and EF, in Choice AU and Mint State the 1846 can be surprisingly difficult to locate.
Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
