The Seated Dollar, issued by the United States Mint, was produced from 1840 to 1873 and features a design by engraver Christian Gobrecht. The 1863 Seated Dollar is notable for its depiction of Lady Liberty seated on a rock, holding a liberty cap and a shield, representing freedom and defense. This coin is part of a broader series that includes various denominations, but it is sought after by collectors for its historical significance and artistic design. Its production during the Civil War era adds to its appeal, reflecting a tumultuous period in American history.
