Description

Low Mintage 1850-O Gold Dollar, MS62
Rarest O-Mint Gold Dollar

1850-O G$1 MS62 NGC. Variety 1, the only dies for the date. From a low mintage of 14,000 pieces, the 1850-O is the rarest O-mint gold dollar. Doug Winter estimates a surviving population of 175-250 examples in all grades, with about two dozen specimens in Mint State. The present coin displays intricate detail in all design elements, with appealing frosty luster. A few shallow scratches, one from Liberty's lip to the star at 3 o'clock, explain the grade. Census: 23 in 62, 7 finer (3/10).(Registry values: N2998)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25BJ, PCGS# 7512, Greysheet# 8059)
