Description

Rare "Full Date" 1855-D Gold Dollar, AU58

1855-D G$1 AU58 PCGS. Variety 7-I. Specialists will immediately notice the depth of strike on this piece. The date is absolutely full, in fact, so sharp that the individual letters of LIBERTY can actually be read between the 55. These letters, of course, are in the form of clash marks from the obverse. Not long ago, Doug Winter remarked that only nine or 10 examples exist with a full date.
In addition to the strike, this piece has subtle orange and lilac toning over brilliant yellow surfaces with full frosty mint luster. The surfaces are lightly abraded, as expected, with traces of highpoint wear, also typical of the grade.
