Description
1922 Grant With Star Gold Dollar, MS68
One of Finest Certified
1922 G$1 Grant With Star MS68 NGC. Among the many
distinctions of artist Laura Gardin Fraser is that she was the only
woman to design one of the classic gold commemoratives, the Grant
gold dollar. (In the modern era, Chief Engraver Elizabeth Jones
designed the Statue of Liberty five dollar.) The two Grant gold
dollar subtypes are of roughly equal rarity overall, and the With
Star type is undeniably elusive at the MS68 level shown by the
present piece. The strike is above-average, and deep butter-yellow
and honey-orange luster adds life to each side. A couple of faint
tiny planchet voids in the left obverse field between the U in
UNITED and Grant's head may help pedigree the coin. Census: 8 in
68, 0 finer (2/13).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# BYPS, PCGS# 7459, Greysheet# 10212)
Weight: 1.70 grams
