Early & Seated Liberty Dollars
for your consideration:
| 1798 Draped Bust Large Eagle Silver Dollar ANACS EF net VF-20 | |
| Description: The slab says that this dollar is corroded and cleaned, but that is a very harsh description. It looks quite decent, and I have seen much worse sold as no problem coins. Just a bit of minor pitting on the reverse, otherwise a nice original looking coin. No adjustment marks. Price reduced by half from the regular EF price. | |

| 1798 Draped Bust Large Eagle Silver Dollar ICG EF-40 | |
| Description: Bolender-10 variety. Also known as BB-109 from
the Bowers silver dollar encyclopedia. A scarce variety of which Mr. Bowers
estimates that between 75 and 125 specimens exist in all grades. This
particular piece was in the Warren Miller collection, and is notated as such
on the slab. Mr. Miller collected 114 of the 118 varieties of early dollars.
His collection in it's entirety was slabbed by ICG and was displayed by ICG
at the ANA show in New York in 2002.
The Bowers dollar encyclopedia notes that this variety is always weak in the central areas on both sides, as is this specimen. The toning level is generally light with a mixture of blue and gold on the obverse and mostly gold on the reverse though there is some blue in the area of the clouds on the reverse. |

| Description: No problems, decent eye appeal. Hard to locate without problems. Only the slightest trace of adjustment marks on the reverse, not at all distracting. Some original luster remains. Excellent color, as so many of these early coins are very dark. Bargain priced as an EF-40. | |

| 1800 Draped Bust Dollar ANACS AU Details Net EF-45 | |
| Description: Net graded by half a grade due to two minor obverse scratches. One is on the lower part of the bust and the other is in front of Miss Liberty's face. Both are thin and shallow and not very distracting at all, being well hidden under a very attractive light gold tone. The light gold color is enhanced by luster remaining in protected areas. No adjustment marks and scarce as such. Discounted by $2400 or about 1/3 due to the minor scratches. | |

| 1845 Seated Liberty Silver Dollar ANACS MS-61 | |
| Description: Dave Bowers, in his two volume silver dollar encyclopedia, says that the 1845 seated liberty dollar may well be the rarest Philadelphia date in the entire series, even more so than the more famous rarities of 1851 and 1852. Nice original antique gray toning. Excellent eye appeal for the grade, and only half the price of a MS-63. The surfaces are semi prooflike. New ANACS slab. | |

| 1859 Seated Liberty Silver Dollar PCGS Proof-64 |
|
| Description: This dollar is a stunning example of the best that classic Proof coinage has to offer! For any fan of deep, original toning, it just does not get much better than this. This amazing dollar is a deep cobalt blue with some hint of red included. The only detraction whatsoever is a nick in front of Liberty's knee where another dollar contacted this coin leaving three tiny reed marks. Otherwise the surfaces are virtually flawless and hairline free. That tiny nick is actually a blessing in disguise, as this dollar would otherwise be priced well above many new cars. Original mintage was 800 coins, and these could be purchased at the mint at that time for all of $1.08! By the way, the Seated Liberty image that appears on the top of each page is cut out from the scan of this dollar. | |
