1840 $1 AU58+ PCGS CAC

The 1840 Liberty Seated Dollar marks the inaugural year of subtype, and this AU58+ PCGS CAC example sits at the pinnacle of the circulated spectrum with the visual presence of a borderline Mint State coin. The coin displays smooth, satiny silver-gray fields accented by soft dove-gray and deeper charcoal undertones. Warm golden-amber and straw-gold peripheral toning frames the design with naturally layered color that moves gracefully under light. Struck for bullion depositors rather than government demand, the 1840 issue saw a modest mintage of 61,005 pieces and was not saved in quantity at the time, with few survivors retaining such high-end originality. This example exhibits the classic circulated-UNC transition look and has a survival estimate of approximately 2,500 pieces.
