1874 Gold Dollar, MS68
Top-Grade CAC Registry Coin

1874 G$1 MS68 NGC. CAC. The 1874 issue is one of the most plentiful gold dollars, as might be expected from the large mintage approaching 200,000 circulation strikes. Even Gem examples can be located without too much trouble. MS66 and MS67 coins are quite scarce, however, and MS68 pieces are a significant condition rarity. NGC has graded a mere seven coins in this level of preservation and none finer; PCGS has seen three MS68 coins with none finer (3/23).

The present offering presents a unique opportunity for the gold specialist to acquire one of the finest certified 1874 gold dollars. The sharply struck surfaces display orange-gold with faint traces of lilac. Slight evidence of die rust is seen on the figure of Liberty, a feature we see published in no references on the series.
