Not Sold Description
1853 Gold Dollar, MS67
Tied for Finest Certified at NGC
1853 G$1 MS67 NGC. This is the optimal U.S. gold dollar type
issue in the exceptional grade of MS67. The large gold dollar
coinage of 1853 exceeded 4 million pieces. They were made at a time
when the Mint greatly increased its gold dollar output to
compensate for silver coins that were overweight in relation and
thus failed to circulate. This Superb Gem 1853 is one of 10 so
graded at NGC, with none finer. PCGS has certified seven at the
MS67 level, with one in MS68 and three in MS69 (8/10). Radiant
luster draws the viewer in on this lovely orange-gold specimen,
with a sharp strike and surfaces that are essentially mark-free.
Minor clash marks appear on the reverse, which also shows a minor
planchet lamination beneath the LA of DOLLAR.(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25BU, PCGS# 7521, GSID# 8013)
