Description
1873 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. Proof-64+ Cameo (PCGS).
Gorgeous Choice surfaces exhibit iridescent light reddish-gold toning to a boldly cameoed finish. Expertly produced, carefully preserved, and sure to please the discerning collector. In addition to 293,000 circulation strikes, the Philadelphia Mint struck 600 Proof silver dollars in 1873, most of which were distributed as part of silver Proof sets. The discontinuance of this denomination may have resulted in the destruction through melting of some unsold examples. The 1873 is one of the scarcer Proof Liberty Seated dollars of the Motto design type. Premium survivors such as that offered here are rare, and this example represents an important offering for advanced collectors.
PCGS# 87021. NGC ID: 252V.
PCGS Population: 2; 12 finer in this category (Proof-67 Cameo finest).
From the Pacific Rim Collection.
