$285.00

HK-363A, SH 16-12.1 ASP, W. H. Seward - Chief Seattle Dollar, a souvenir of the 1909 Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition at Seattle.  Integral loop as struck.  Certified by NGC as MS-62, which is ludicrous.  The only defect is "wear" on the very tip of Chief Seattle's nose, which appears on every Unc example, even the sole MS-65 certified (sold Jan. 2021 at $323).  I have seen images of that piece and the example offered here blows that out of the water as far as quality and eye appeal, with bright flashy Silver-plated surfaces and very mild "antiquing". So it is priced based upon my opinion of value, not the "number" expressed on the label - a probably crack out and re-grade opportunity when NGC settles down a bit. They recently (Spring 2024) changed graders for this series and the opinion expressed by other specialists I know is that the current grading is "all over the place".
