Description
1851 Gold Dollar, MS67
Sharply Struck, Richly Frosted
1851 G$1 MS67 PCGS. The 1851 gold dollar, sporting a mintage
that exceeds 3 million pieces, is clearly a common date. The
mintage for the issue increased significantly over the previous
year (which was about a half million pieces). As one would expect,
Mint State gold dollars of 1851 are plentiful, including those in
the near-Gem level of preservation. Even Gem specimens can be
located with relatively little trouble. Finer-grade examples are
elusive, and coins grading MS67, such as the piece in the current
offering, are a condition rarity. PCGS and NGC combined have
certified only 10 coins at this level and five finer (7/11). This
sharply struck Superb example has rich frosted mint luster and even
reddish-gold color. Slight porosity is seen in the center of each
side.From The Oliver Collection.(Registry values: N1)
