Lot 1741
1870 Liberty Seated Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 63 Cameo. An enchanting specimen that possesses a strongly frosty Liberty surrounded by deeply reflective fields that have hints of lavender toning. There are three short tick marks in the date, one on the 1, 8 and 7. A small curved lint mark is seen above the 18 of the date, connecting to the rock. The eagle is intensely frosty on the reverse and shimmers with sparkling luster. The Philadelphia Mint produced 1,000 proofs in 1870 and examples can be found up to the near-gem level with relative ease. The present specimen would make a lovely addition to a dollar collection or type collection as it is truly one of the finer Proof 63 examples we have seen. PCGS has graded 4 in PR-63CAM, 13 in PR-64CAM and 4 in PR-65CAM (PCGS # 87018) .
Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,500.
