详细说明

1866 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. OC-1. Rarity-2. Repunched Date, Doubled Die Reverse. AU-53 (PCGS). Warm pearl-gray patina with bolder cobalt blue highlights here and there around the peripheries. Much luster remains, along with particularly sharp detail on the reverse. Scarce to rare at all levels of preservation, the circulation strike 1866 silver dollar has a mintage of just 48,900 pieces, the majority of which were lost through melting after use in the export trade with the Orient. Most survivors, of which Q. David Bowers (2016) accounts for no more than 500 in all circulated grades, represent coins returned to the United States after export to Europe or Latin America, and which subsequently escaped melting when redeemed by the Treasury Department in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
