Proof Seated Dollars
1866 $1 Motto PR64 NGC. This Choice proof is deeply reflective and boasts subtle cameo contrast, warmed by a light golden hue on each side. The strike is full, and a few trivial hairlines are invisible to the unaided eye. The 1866 was the first proof Seated dollar struck bearing the motto IN GOD WE TRUST on the reverse. The Philadelphia Mint coined 725 examples, with likely less than half of those known today. Census: 65 in 64, 22 finer (3/17).
