Seated Dollars are a series of silver coins produced by the United States Mint from 1840 to 1873, featuring an image of Liberty seated on a rock. The 1861 Seated Dollar was minted in Philadelphia and is part of the Coinage Act of 1792, which established the U.S. dollar as a standard unit of currency. This particular coin is sought after by collectors due to its historical significance and the limited mintage during the Civil War era. Collectors often focus on factors such as condition, mint mark, and rarity when evaluating the value of these coins.
