- 1849 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-2. Rarity-2. MS-63 (PCGS).
Alluring satin to semi-reflective luster catches the eye even upon cursory inspection. Iridescent peripheral toning also comes readily to the fore, the colors with a handsome mottled distribution from decades of careful storage in the Millholland coin cabinet. Demand from bullion depositors resulted in a mintage of 62,600 circulation strike silver dollars in 1849. Most were exported, a familiar scenario, although enough returned from Europe in payment for goods that the 1849 is now regarded as one of the more readily obtainable issues of its type in circulated grades. Mint State coins are elusive and survived purely as a matter of chance, there being no contemporary numismatic interest in circulation strike silver dollars.
Provenance: From the Collection of James Allaire Millholland, 1842-1911.
