Description
1855-C Gold Dollar, MS61+
Conditionally Rare, Single-Year Issue
1855-C G$1 MS61+ NGC. Variety 2. The Mint made several
modifications to the gold dollar in 1854, resulting in the Type Two
design. Striking difficulties limited the production of Type Two
gold dollars to a single year at the North Carolina branch mint,
and only 9,803 pieces were struck. The result is a highly
collectible Charlotte issue prized by both date and type
collectors. The design elements exhibit typical incompleteness at
the centers, LIBERTY is faintly visible, and clash marks occur over
each side. Deep orange-gold surfaces show partial luster remaining
and reveal just a few wispy marks. This is the sole MS61
representative with a Plus designation at NGC, and only four
examples are certified finer (7/14).(Registry values: N7079)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25C5, PCGS# 7533, Greysheet# 8071)
