Somewhat surprisingly a "sleeper date" despite being the first year of the Seated Liberty design. Quite difficult to obtain in grades above VF. Delightfully smooth in hand with honest wear and natural toning from a brief time in circulation. Visit www.davidlawrence.com for more information on this coin and 7000+ more coins.
