1841 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-4. Rarity-1. MS-63 (NGC). A sizable scratch on the back of the NGC holder is noted, making this coin a candidate for reholdering should the winning bidder choose to pursue that option with NGC. This is a very well preserved example of this otherwise readily available early 1840s silver dollar. This is a brilliant coin, with silver white surfaces that allow ready appreciation of a bright satin to semi-reflective finish. The strike is sharp, indeed most design elements are fully defined, and the surfaces are remarkably smooth for the assigned grade. An outstanding offering for the advanced type collector silver dollar enthusiast. Thanks primarily to 19th century repatriations from European banks and merchants, most silver dollar issues from the 1840s are available in circulated grades. The same cannot be said for Mint State coins, which are rare as a group. There was no numismatic interest in circulation strike silver dollars during the 1840s; the handful of collectors in the Northeast who cared to own an example of this denomination acquiring one of the few Proofs that the Philadelphia Mint produced on a yearly basis. As such, the survival of a Mint State coin such as this Choice 1841 was purely a matter of chance. A highlight of the Liberty Seated dollar offerings in this sale, this impressive condition rarity is sure to catch the eye of astute bidders. PCGS# 6927. NGC ID: 24YB.
