1851-O Gold Dollar, MS66
Ex: Duckor-Simpson

1851-O G$1 MS66 PCGS. Variety 1. Ex: Simpson. Doug Winter commented on this particular coin when we last offered it five years ago: "This piece has the typical luster and color of an 1851-O from the [2004 Philadelphia] hoard, but it is clearly nicer than average." Slight central weakness is evident on the hair curls over Liberty's ear, and at the LA of DOLLAR and the 5 of the date. All other design elements are boldly rendered. Both sides of this Gem are highly lustrous with brilliant lemon-yellow surfaces. Wisps of pale blue enhance the eye appeal. Population: 4 in 66 (1 in 66+), 0 finer (10/21).
