<B>1876 $1 Seated Liberty Silver Dollar, Judd-1470, Pollock-1621, R.8, PR63 PCGS.</B></I> Ex: H.W. Bass, Jr. The obverse has the famous Liberty by the Sea Shore design in a plain field with IN GOD WE TRUST just above the date. The reverse is the standard design for the Seated Liberty dollar type Without Motto, used again more than a decade after it was removed from service. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. According to Saul Teichman, just two examples were actually struck, and both remain in existence today. The two known examples are:<BR><B>PR65 NGC.</B></I> William H. Woodin; Waldo Newcomer; F.C.C. Boyd; King Farouk; Dr. J. Hewitt Judd; Abe Kosoff; Bowers and Merena (11/1985); Novoselsky; Kagins<BR><B>PR63 PCGS. The example being offered here.</B></I> William H. Woodin; H.O. Granberg; Quality Sales Corp. (Abner Kreisberg, 11/1970), lot 1307; Harry W. Bass, Jr. (Bowers and Merena), lot 1272.<BR> This piece is fully brilliant and sharply struck with reflective proof surfaces. Evidence remains that this piece has been lacquered, a popular preservation method many years ago and easily removed without damage to the coin. The opportunity to buy an example of a variety with just two pieces known rare presents itself, and the opportunity to add an 1876 pattern silver dollar, especially struck in silver, is exceptionally important. <BR><I>From The Jones Beach Collection.</B></I><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coin/Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
