Description

1849-D G$1 MS63 NGC. Variety 1-A with the mintmark left of center below the bow knot. With a mintage of 21,588 coins, the 1849-D is the most plentiful Dahlonega Mint gold dollar. The production was one-third of the entire gold dollar mintage for all years in Georgia. As it is also the first year of issue for the denomination, the 1849-D is considered the perfect Dahlonega Mint type coin of the Type One gold dollar design. Although shy of the Condition Census for the date, this 1849-D is a lovely piece with brilliant green-gold luster and reflective surfaces. It is sharply struck, although the border is weak in places as always. Census: 17 in 63, 8 finer (12/09).
