1857 $1 MS64+ NGC CAC

Experience the epitome of numismatic elegance with this 1857 Liberty Seated Dollar. This coin, with a mintage of just 94,490 and survival estimates of only 100 in grades of 60 or better, stands as a rare gem in the world of American coinage. Many examples of this series were exported for the China trade and subsequently lost to circulation in Asia, making this specimen particularly desirable. The coin showcases spectacular luster and pristine surfaces. Both obverse and reverse feature toning, with scattered flecks, creating a compelling contrast against the overall brilliance of the coin. Liberty’s face and gown are rendered in sharp detail, with stand-out strikes that add to its fabulous eye appeal. The coin’s golden iridescent toning blends seamlessly with soft amber and sapphire hues over sensational antique silver, presenting a truly mesmerizing appearance. With a PCGS Price Guide value of $27,500, this coin is a standout piece, considering next grade in MS65 CAC would cost around $100,000, a massive jump.
