I've been told I tolerate fools poorly...that may explain things if I have a problem with you. Current ebay items - Nothing at the moment

It's interesting to see how Liberty is proportioned on the different denoms when they're all the same size.
The Seated Dollar type coin is a real bear because so many of them have been dipped or cleaned. The most common dates in Mint State are the 1859-O and 1860-O which came from government hoards in the early 1960s. Those coins tend to be white and bag marked. The other dates got into circulation, got some toning, and were often cleaned by prior owners.

Is the T$ considered part of the Seated Liberty series? I didn't realize that.
Trying to stick to business strikes, but the proof dollars really do look nicer.
Thanks all.

I'd call her seated - even if she is facing the wrong direction.
I never realized that the Trade dollar has the same reverse eagle as the 20C. (also facing the "wrong" direction)
Very nice coins
Many members on this forum that now it cannot fit in my signature. Please ask for entire list.

Nice stuff! Love the quarter.

The Proof dollars are easier to find nice than the business strikes. The No Motto Proof dollars were only made in some quantity for a brief time before the design was changed in 1866. Here is my No Motto Seated Dollar, a PCGS PR-64.
