Near-Gem 1853-O Gold Dollar
With Original 'Crusty' Surfaces

1853-O G$1 MS64 NGC. With a mintage well over a quarter-million pieces, the 1853-O gold dollar is the easiest O-mint to find for type purposes. It is nonetheless quite elusive in Gem grades. This near-Gem exhibits original crusty greenish-gold surfaces, a piece that has clearly never been fiddled with. Minor strike weakness appears only on the second L in DOLLAR. Census: 47 in 64, 13 finer (11/10).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25BX, PCGS# 7524, Greysheet# 8068)
