***Auction Highlight*** 1872-s Seated Liberty Dollar $1 Graded xf+ By USCG. Up for auction is a very rare 1872-s Seated Dollie. To quote from Q. David Bowers “Many 1872-S silver dollars probably were held by the Treasury until at least autumn 1876, when upon the resumption of specie payments sequestered bags of earlier dates were released. I believe that most circulated in the American West through the early twentieth century. However, it is also likely that numerous coins were held at the San Francisco Mint and melted after April 1873. Still others were probably exported to the Orient in the year before the trade dollar became a reality. The 1872-S is rarer than the mintage indicates, a situation that can be laid at the doorstep of melting and exportation. It has been my experience that worn specimens of 1872-S are considerably scarcer than those of 1870-CC. Examples of the 1872-S are elusive in all grades and are very rare in Mint State.” A Corey's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin
