Description

1854-D AU 58 Lightly Cleaned. An extremely rare Dahlonega gold dollar with an original mintage of only 2,935 pieces. Not only is the '54-D rare in the absolute sense and in all grades (with an estimated 35-45 pieces believed to exist), it is also a problem-ridden issue with most examples showing numerous mint-made planchet defects. This coin is not fully struck (none are), but it is well defined in all the vital areas on each side. The surfaces are bright from having been cleaned and also show an attractive layer of rich reddish patina in the fields. One of the finer examples known of this rare issue. Trends $5,150 in AU 50, $20,000 in MS 60 (5/23).
