Description
Pleasing PR40 1836 Gobrecht Dollar
Original Striking, Medal Alignment
1836 $1 Judd-60 Original, Medal Alignment PR40 PCGS. Silver.
Plain Edge. Die Alignment IV (head of Liberty opposite the letters
OF). This piece appears to be an early die state, and we only see
the rim marker above the A in STATES. This piece was produced in
March 1837 along with the Die Alignment II coins. Therefore, this
coin represents an original issue Gobrecht dollar. This conclusion
is also consistent with the amount of wear present. It appears this
coin circulated for several years before it was recognized as a
rare and valuable coin. There is even wear over the highpoints. The
surfaces are original and uncleaned with lighter centers and
gradually deepening gray patina toward the margins.From The John Stimson, Sr. Collection, Part Two.
