I don't like the discoloration on the back nor the hit on the right leg. I would keep looking unless this one is bargain priced.




IMO its a VF-20 plus or minus a grade. Although its better than the others you posted, if it were me I would hold out for better one. Its surfaces look a little too light in color to be original IMO.

Finding nice Seated dollars are difficult on a budget since there are a lot of unattractive ones out there and the ones that are nice are expensive. I'm glad I have already picked them up for my type set! Unless prices have drastically changed since I bought mine a little over a year ago you should be able to get nice XF's with decent eye appeal in your price range (assuming $600 from prior topic).

Good luck in your hunt,
Joe

The seller counter-offered $540 postpaid, 10-day no questions asked return policy;

Great comments about the "stain" on the back and the dig on the right ankle. I must have my blinders (forest and the trees thing) on since I seem to be posting every Dollar within my means. With a larger contact area, there are going to be a greater chance of contact marks on these cartwheels. Trying to find a nice Seated dollar in the 500's is proving to be my most troublesome effort and I really appreciate the feedback that I have received.

I am following this rascal as well;

oih82w8 I like this 1860-O you just posted. No distracting marks on this one and solid for the grade. Now if priced right, you'll be all set.

The only drawback to the 1860-O above...it's an auction coin, the others have been BIN. I'll have to wait and see.

I hope that I am not boring the CCF with these Seated Liberty dollars...here is another thread;

I agree about the 1860-O. Fingers crossed the auction doesn't get out of control

Of those two, I think I like the 59 better. And at 540 on a 700 valued coin....

smokeriderdon, where did you find a $700 value for the 59-O?

NGC & Numismedia have it list as $600.

That one is a nice XF40. The one oih82w8 is looking at is slightly over-graded in my opinion although the asking price may be about right.

PCGS has that listing at $750, what a difference a TPG makes.

I am still hoping for the lighter 60-O PCGS coin, but the 59-O would be a good fall-back dollar as well.
