Proof Seated Dollars
1858 $1 PR63 NGC. OC-P1, Low R.4. The 1858 Seated Liberty dollar is a famous proof-only issue. Although the exact mintage is unknown, the Chapman brothers were purveyors of a figure of only 80 coins. Modern estimates have ranged from around 200 pieces to as high as nearly 500 proofs. The Guide Book estimates 300 specimens were manufactured. Bowers believes that the initial 1858 issue was followed by restrikes in 1859-60, with more possibly made as late as 1876. This brilliant Seated dollar proof has light hairlines on each side, but the motifs are fully detailed, as one would expect from a proof strike. A must-have issue for the completion of a Seated dollar date set.
