Description: The obverse features Lady Liberty seated on a rock, holding a shield with "Liberty" inscribed and a staff topped with a liberty cap. The reverse displays an eagle with outstretched wings clutching arrows and an olive branch, symbolizing strength and peace. Around the reverse are the inscriptions "United States of America" and "One Dol."
History: Part of the Seated Liberty Dollar series minted from 1840 to 1873, these coins are composed of 90% silver and 10% copper. The coin reflects a pivotal period in American history, just before the discontinuation of silver dollar production in 1873 with the Coinage Act.
