1915-S Panama-Pacific Dollar, MS67
Appealing Top-Grade Example

1915-S G$1 Panama-Pacific Gold Dollar MS67 PCGS. Even though they are by different designers, the frolicking dolphins on the reverse of this Charles Keck one dollar gold design are reminiscent, nowadays at least, of the 16 dolphins cavorting in the vertices of the fifty dollar octagonal Pan-Pac commemorative, designed by Robert Aitken. All four of the Pan-Pac gold designs are appealing, although the one dollar obverse is an Everyman design, a simple Panama Canal worker in a cap, rather than the Neoclassical designs of the quarter eagle and fifty dollar coins. This Superb Gem boasts effulgent luster amid excellent surface preservation and attractive golden-orange patina with glints of pale jade in the interstices. The eye appeal is top-shelf. Population: 67 in 67, 0 finer (3/16).
