Description
Original 1839 Gobrecht Dollar, Judd-104
Name Omitted, AU Details
1839 P$1 Name Omitted, Judd-104 Original, Pollock-116,
R.3--Reverse Spot Removed--NGC Details. AU. Silver. Reeded
Edge. Die Alignment IV (the head Liberty is opposite the F in OF).
There are no die cracks connecting TE or MERI, nor is there a crack
at the bottom of LAR, and it definitely lacks the die spur on the
right side of the D. Therefore, this is an original 1839 dollar
struck in the year of issue. There are several planchet voids out
of the reverse, but the one of note and mentioned on the NGC insert
is in the field below the eagle. It appears a spot settled in that
larger planchet void, and someone tried to remove it none too
subtly by pinscratching the area. Otherwise the surfaces are
lightly toned in the centers, with deeper gray-blue peripheral
color. The strike is strong, especially so for a coin that was
lightly circulated. On the obverse there are two shallow scratches
that need to be mentioned, one from the top of Liberty's head to
the pole, and the other from the pole toward star 11.
