Lot 1689
1850-O Liberty Seated Dollar. PCGS graded AU-55. One of only four issues produced by the New Orleans Mint for the No Motto Seated dollar series. Mint records report that 40,000 coins were produced this year and it is likely that a significant portion of that figure was melted during the rising silver prices of the 1850's. This example is well struck and frosty with golden overtones. There is a deep scratch over Liberty's right breast. A very low population issue and a rare New Orleans Seated dollar! PCGS has graded 9 in AU-55 with only 21 finer. Housed in an old PCGS green label, fat letter holder (PCGS # 6938) .
Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,500.
The Michael M. Magdic Collection.
