Lot 1216
1866 Liberty Seated Dollar. With motto. PCGS graded Proof 64. Magnificent blue and rose gold toning throughout, perfectly arranged so the devices are highlighted. This is a very important coin, it is the first year of the new type with the addition of the motto "In God We Trust" on the reverse, and all but two clandestine 1866 dollars have the motto above the eagle. Close examination of the surfaces finds little to fault, the surfaces show virtually no signs of contact, and hairlines (if any) are faint at best. PCGS has graded 51 this high from the original mintage of 725, with 14 graded PR-65 above, and 2 coins graded PR-66 on top of the census. If you love toned proof coins, then this one will make a welcome addition to your collection.
Estimated Value $5,000-UP.
