Description
Handsome MS64 1854 Type Two Gold Dollar
1854 G$1 Type Two MS64 PCGS. Light lemon-gold coloration and vibrantly lustrous surfaces are the most memorable qualities of the current offering, although the well struck details certainly deserve an honorary mention. Type collectors seeking to acquire a Type Two gold dollar usually purchase an 1854 or 1855 example, as they are the more available of the six different issues that represent the subtype. They were also minted in relatively large quantities (approximately 750,000 pieces each). Interestingly, a review of the PCGS Population Report illustrates that both issues have a nearly identical distribution of grades, from VF through MS67, indicating that they entered the channels of commerce in similar fashion. This pleasing example is conservatively graded and deserving of strong bids.(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25C3, PCGS# 7531, GSID# 8015)
