Description
Bright MS66 1905 Lewis and Clark Dollar
1905 G$1 Lewis and Clark MS66 NGC. The Lewis and Clark commemorative gold dollars are like the "pushmi-pullyu" of Dr. Doolittle fame, in that they have two heads and no tails. Both the 1904 and 1905 issues are typically found in AU grades to the lower ranges of Mint State. When Mint State pieces appear, they usually show distracting abrasions on the cheeks of Lewis, Clark, or both. This piece is nearly free of such distractions, however, in keeping with the Premium Gem grade, and the bright yellow-gold surfaces are highly lustrous and appealing. Few specimens at either service have ever achieved a finer grade--less than a half-dozen at NGC and PCGS combined, to be precise.(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# BYLG, PCGS# 7448, Greysheet# 10207)
