I've been getting more Seated Dollars recently.
Here's an 1859-O No Motto to enjoy :)

Thanks Merlin!
It's nice to see these old designs on large coins!
Here's earlier no motto from 1846, also from New Orleans.
Nice coins from a great series.

Thanks Cheezhed!
It's one of my favorite series because they remind me of the steam power era in the US as these were minted on the new steam coining presses.
Really Nice ‼ï¸â€¼ï¸🎯👍👍👀‼ï¸â€¼ï¸
Here's my lowball 1876 Carson City quarter.
Imagine the stories this coin could tell!
I really like the Seated Liberty series. I was in the running on this beauty until the bids way exceeded my slush fund.

I know the feeling.
Don't give up hope though.
These are in my Dansco 7070
I have nothing as nice as any of that stuff, but what I do have is honest and one coin is quite rare, a very worn but scarce Seated Liberty dollar I paid the bargain price of just $150 NZ for.
This worn beauty is a 1860 O (New Orleans) seated Liberty dollar in Fair to About Good condition, you can see liberty, the date and outline of the eagle, mintmark and enough to see its a dollar. This was the commonest date, but was just 715k coins and they were a casualty of the Civil War and the last time New Orleans would mint silver until the 1890s.
Some of my other seated Liberty include this worn but beautiful quarter from 1854 and 2 or 3 decent half dimes. The quarter is a decent VG coin and shows enough detail, sadly likely cleaned but my oldest quarter.
The half dimes are very cute 1853 is almost Fine but badly cleaned and stained, 1856 is VG and again likely the quarter historically cleaned but tone is coming back.
I did have a seated Liberty 20c coin in my collection, but traded it with Kena, as he needed it for his 7070 album. I kept a picture of the reverse, as it had lots of cracks. Maybe Ken can post a pic of the obverse.
