1843 Seated Liberty Dollar
I would appreciate it if someone could help me with a guestimate as to the
value and background of this coin. I am not a coin collector, but have always have had a mild fancy for older coins. :-) Anyway, I was recently in San Francisco in a jewelry shop and came across a box of loose oriental silver dollars (trade dollars, mostly). Rummaging through them, I found several 1843 Seated Liberty Dollars with most being heavily worn. I found this one specimen that would likely rate as being in "fine" condition. (sorry for the ambiguity, but that is the extent of my grading knowlege). Here is my problem: The reverse of the coin has the banner "IN GOD WE TRUST" over the eagle's head. Otherwise, it looks just like any other 1843 seated liberty silver dollar. I cannot find any 1843 seated liberty dollars that carry this banner. The coin does not appear to be a fake and has certainly seen circulation. Any help concerning this coin would be most apprectiated. Thanks in advance! |
