Description
1853-O Gold Dollar, MS66
Tied for Finest at PCGS
1853-O G$1 MS66 PCGS. Variety 1. Ex: Simpson. The 1853-O is
moderately plentiful in Mint State, although most such coins grade
no finer than MS64. Gems are rare, and only five Premium Gems are
reported at PCGS. The Simpson coin is tied for the finest at PCGS,
an essential coin for the Registry collector. We have previously
handled only one other MS66 example, in our August 2015 sale of the
Duckor Collection, where an MS66 PCGS example realized $23,500.This example is impressively sharp both around the borders and on the central devices, with only slight softness evident on the second L in DOLLAR. The rich honey-gold surfaces are beautifully preserved and lustrous with soft mint frost. No distracting abrasions are seen. Population: 5 in 66, 0 finer (9/20).(Registry values: N1)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25BX, PCGS# 7524, Greysheet# 8068)
Weight: 1.67 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
