Seated Dollars
1862 $1 MS62 PCGS. OC-1. The total mintage for the 1862 Seated dollar -- merely 11,540 coins -- ranks among the lowest in the entire series. The issue's production numbers directly reflect the lack of circulation of specie during the Civil War years. The razor-sharp strike characteristics, squared-off rims, and semiprooflike fields are unsurprising considering how few coins were struck. Bright, untoned fields display myriad scattered marks. Population: 18 in 62 (2 in 62+), 35 finer (1/17).
