Could that be a well worn Die Cud at K5 ?

Does that mean you purchased the coin?

No I did not buy it. Though It is on the list of potential coins still.
I am more looking for Trade dollars at the moment but I do want A nice low Mintage Seated Liberty and they are hard to come by for A decent price.

Absolutely. I've been trying to find a couple uncommon dates for my type set for a few months now. It will be the most money I've spent on a silver coin.

Late to the party but I like the coin. I don't think the small metal void at K5 is PMD. It looks more like a planchet flaw and a small one at that. Looks like this planchet void is exactly the same shape and in the same location as this coin also an 1840 SLD.

I like the coin. Looks like it's no longer there. Did you buy it? Lovely reverse. Obverse is middling eye appeal.

The coin in the ebay listing linked above is straight PCGS F12 and offered for $625 but I don't think it's as nice as the one in this thread.

THE MAN IN THE ARENA, Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne Paris on April 23, 1910: "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself in a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."

Taking a second look, I guess it's the same coin. I guess Coast coin already bought the coin and slabbed it. LOL.

No I have not bought it . It's on a list of a few I'm considering with my coin money I have but I'm really trying to find a 1876 Philly Trade dollar first that's not trash or super overpriced like the AU-50 on the bay

Hi Jason. I saw your interest in Seated dollar and tried to e-mail you as I too live in your area and have a coin you might be interested in. Send me an e-mail if you wish.
