Description

1854 G$1 Type One MS66 NGC. Both the 1854 Type One and Type Two gold dollars were minted in generous quantities in Philadelphia, totaling more than 1.6 million pieces between the two types. This attractive piece shows evidence of die clashing on each side, more prominently on the reverse, and both dies show evidence of fatigue in the form of metal flow lines. Die cracks join a few of the star points with the obverse rim. The poststrike preservation, however, is as exemplary as the eye appeal is superlative. Census: 26 in 66, 7 finer (12/09).
