1852-C Gold Dollar, MS63+
Popular Charlotte Issue

1852-C G$1 MS63+ NGC. Variety 2. Two die pairs struck the entire 1852 Charlotte gold dollar mintage numbering 9,434 pieces. Despite a relatively low mintage, the 1852-C ranks among the more available Charlotte Mint dates. Doug Winter's research suggests that up to 350 examples may still exist, though although the issue remains scarce in high Uncirculated conditions. The 1852-C is slightly less-scarce in the MS63 and MS64 grades than most other Charlotte gold dollars, with the exception of the 1851-C. Among the 1852-C survivors, approximately a half dozen coins reach the Gem Uncirculated level, and there is one exceptional MS66 piece known. The present example is a high-end Select Uncirculated specimen, characterized by a lustrous wheat-gold hue and sharply readable "LIBERTY" on the coronet. It exhibits minor softness in the neck curls, as often seen for the issue. The base of the numeral 1 in the date is repunched at its base. A triangular planchet flaw is visible on the reverse, extending upward from the "A" in "DOLLARS". A few light marks determine the borderline Choice grade but do not diminish the overall olive-gold eye appeal. Census: 13 in 63 (1 in 63+), 15 finer (5/24).(Registry values: N4719)
