The 1872-S Liberty Seated Silver Dollar exemplifies the neoclassical design of the time, featuring an obverse with Liberty seated on a rock, draped in flowing robes, holding a liberty cap on a staff and a shield. Struck in 90% silver at the San Francisco Mint, it is one of only three Liberty Seated dollar struck with the famous “S” mintmark. The reverse depicts a heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing America's strength and peace.
Graded PCGS AU-50, this example shows minimal wear on high points, retaining sharp details and original luster, which elevates its appeal. PCGS has graded 25 as AU50 with 42 finer.
Minted during the post-Civil War Reconstruction period, this coin reflects the nation's economic recovery and westward expansion, as the San Francisco facility catered to California's gold rush boom. With a modest mintage of just 9,000 pieces, the 1872-S is one of the scarcest dates in the Liberty Seated dollar series (1840-1873), making it highly sought after by collectors for its historical significance and low survival rate.
