I recently aquired an 1845 O Seated Liberty Silver Dollar and can not find out anything about it. What I have found is that the New Orleans mint had a steamed powered press installed in 1845, but did not produce silver dollars until the following year, 1846. I am trying to find out if any silver dollars were produce as part of a test run to ensure that the steam press would function as anticipated, prior to regular production runs.
