Description
1905 Lewis and Clark Gold Dollar, MS67
Only One Finer at NGC
1905 G$1 Lewis and Clark Gold Dollar MS67 NGC. The Lewis and
Clark Exposition was held in Portland, Oregon in 1905, marking the
centennial of the expedition that Meriwether Lewis and William
Clark took to the Pacific Northwest. They reached the Columbia
River and the Pacific Ocean in 1805. Their journey began on May 14,
1804, and continued until September 23, 1806. Congress authorized
the production of as many as 250,000 Lewis and Clark gold dollars
dated 1904 and 1905, but sales were dismal with just 10,000 of each
distributed, plus a small additional number for assay purposes. The
PCGS CoinFacts commentary about the 1904 Lewis and Clark gold
dollars applies equally to the 1905 issue: "Hundreds of them are
available in grades ranging from MS62 to MS65. Even MS66 examples
are readily available, and only in MS67 does this coin become
rare." The present Superb Gem is one of those rare MS67 examples.
Both sides have sharp design details, pristine yellow-gold
surfaces, and frosty mint luster. Census: 3 in 67, 1 finer
(11/23).(Registry values: N10218)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# BYLG, PCGS# 7448, Greysheet# 10207)
