Seated Dollars
1870 $1 MS62 PCGS. CAC. Only twice in its 33-year history did mintages of the Seated dollar break the 1 million mark, for the 1871 and 1872 Philadelphia issues. The mintage of the 1870 was a skimpy 415,000 coins, making it one of the larger productions while still scarce in Mint State. This MS62 piece is silver-white and lustrous, with somewhat prooflike surfaces that show a few scattered, random contacts that preclude an even finer grade, while not of much import. The strike is somewhat soft at the upper obverse and lower reverse. Population: 31 in 62, 48 finer. CAC: 1 in 62, 7 finer (6/17).
