1856-S Gold Dollar, AU55
Last Type Two Issue

1856-S G$1 Type Two AU55 NGC. The 1856-S gold dollar was the last issue to feature the Type Two design, as the other mints only struck Type Three gold dollars that year. The small mintage of 24,600 pieces makes the date quite elusive in all grades. The present coin is a well struck issue, with some softness evident on the obverse peripheral devices. The lustrous fields are a light yellow-gold color.(Registry values: N1793)
