Description
Select 1851-D Gold Dollar
Rare Issue in Mint State
1851-D G$1 MS63 PCGS. Variety 3-E. The 1851-D gold dollar
has a reported mintage of 9,882 pieces, large in the context of the
series, but minuscule in absolute terms. Doug Winter estimates a
surviving population of 150-175 coins in all grades, with 12-15
examples remaining in Mint State. Currently, PCGS has certified
only four coins in MS63, with two finer; while NGC has graded four
examples at the Select level, with six finer (6/10).The present coin is a delightful Select specimen, with vibrant mint luster and pleasing green-gold surfaces. The striking details are sharp for a D-mint issue, but some softness is noted on LA in DOLLAR. Overall visual appeal is outstanding.(Registry values: N4719)
