Description

1838 Gobrecht Dollar, Deeply Toned Proof
Judd-84, Die Alignment III

1838 P$1 Name Omitted, Judd-84 Original, Pollock-93 -- Obverse Scratched, Improperly Cleaned -- NCS. Proof. Silver. Die Alignment III (coin turn, center of Liberty's head opposite the N in ONE). This is an early die state with no trace of a die scratch or die crack connecting the tops of MERI, TE, or the bottom of LAR. Die Alignment III coins are later restrikes, most likely produced either during the tenure of Mint Director James Ross Snowden or Henry Linderman. Several shallow pinscratches are seen in the obverse fields, most notably in the right field. Improper cleaning has dulled the surfaces, which are now covered with deep, almost opaque blue-gray and pinkish-red toning. The strike is strong overall.
