Seated Dollars are a series of silver coins produced by the United States Mint from 1840 to 1873. The 1848 Seated Dollar features a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht, depicting Liberty seated with various attributes symbolizing freedom and national pride. These coins are significant to collectors due to their historical context and relatively limited mintage, making them a key focus for numismatists interested in American silver coinage. The 1848 date is particularly notable, as it falls within a period of economic growth and westward expansion in the U.S.
