Proof Seated Dollars
1869 $1 PR64 PCGS. CAC. FS-301, OC-2. A repunched date and misplaced date variety. The base of the 1 is lightly repunched, and the top of a date digit emerges from the dentils below the 6. Dick Osburn and Brian Cushing believe only business strikes were coined from the die marriage, but the present lot is a Choice Proof with reflective fields and an intricate strike. The cobalt-blue and autumn-brown surfaces are unblemished.
