Description
Superb Gem 1853 Gold Dollar
Near-Perfect Surface Preservation
1853 G$1 MS67 PCGS. CAC. The design elements are remarkably
well struck on both sides of this lovely little jewel. Even LA in
DOLLAR is nearly completely formed. Gleaming mint frost illuminates
the yellow-gold surfaces, which reveal fine-grained field textures
and near-perfect preservation. As Garrett and Guth observe in
Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins (2008), the 1853 is by far
the most common date in the gold dollar series. In Superb Gem
condition, however, the issue becomes exceedingly scarce, and
precious few have been so graded by the two major services. It
seems like a foregone conclusion that such a pleasing, high-grade
specimen will generate considerable attention when it crosses the
auction block. Population: 6 in 67, 5 finer (11/11).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25BU, PCGS# 7521, Greysheet# 8013)
