1860-O Liberty Seated Dollar VF-30 PCGS
Struck in the historic port city of New Orleans, this 1860 silver dollar represents a fascinating era of American coin design. Minted on the eve of the Civil War, the coin is composed of 90 percent silver, containing 0.7734 troy ounces of precious metal. This particular specimen has survived the generations to be certified in Very Fine 30 condition, preserving its intricate details for modern observers to appreciate. The obverse features a classic representation of Liberty seated upon a rock. Facing to her left, she holds a staff topped with a Phrygian cap, while her right hand rests upon a shield inscribed with the word LIBERTY. The reverse showcases a majestic eagle facing left, its chest protected by a shield. In its talons, the eagle grasps an olive branch and three arrows, symbolizing both peace and defense. Below the eagle, the distinct "O" mint mark identifies this piece as a product of the New Orleans Mint, adding a layer of regional history to this mid-nineteenth-century artifact.
