1863 Liberty Seated Silver Dollar. Proof-62 (PCGS).
Fully struck with appreciably mirrored fields, the entire package is lightly toned in sandy-gold iridescence. From a reported Proof mintage of 470 pieces, although surprisingly the 2018 Osburn-Cushing reference on Liberty Seated dollars reports that four die pairings were used for this small production run. The authors identify all of these as having been used for original strikings of the date. This issue as a whole is scarce in numismatic circles, and since Proofs are always in demand (especially given the paucity of Mint State silver dollars of this date), those who enjoy attractive Liberty Seated dollars will no doubt beat a path to the present lot when it appears at auction.
