- 1864 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-1. Rarity-2. Repunched Date. MS-63 (PCGS). A fully struck, softly lustrous example with light silver and pale rose overtones. Circulation strike silver dollar production in 1864 amounted to just 30,700 pieces, and survivors are few and far between in numismatic circles. Silver dollars did not circulate domestically during the Civil War era, the coins instead being used in the United States' export trade. Once exported most examples were lost, with the coins more often than not being melted for their bullion content. Elusive in both circulated and Mint State grades, the 1864 represents a significant find for the advanced collector whenever one becomes available. Uncirculated coins, as here, are particularly rare and eagerly sought. Provenance: From The Des Moines Collection. PCGS Population: 7; 18 finer (MS-66 finest). PCGS# 6954. NGC ID: 24Z7.
