Description
1855 Type Two Gold Dollar, MS62
Bright Yellow-Gold Mint Luster
1855 G$1 MS62 PCGS. Unlike 1854, in which Type Two gold
dollars were produced at Philadelphia only, 1855 saw production at
the three Southern Mints (Charlotte, Dahlonega, and New Orleans) as
well. In practice, this did little to boost the total gold dollar
mintage for the year; Philadelphia's output matched that of the
branch mints and then exceeded it ten times over, making the 1855
an obvious candidate for the type collector. This is a bright
yellow-gold example that shows a considerably stronger strike in
the centers than usually seen. The fields are die clashed, as
usual, and there are just a few small abrasions scattered about to
limit the grade of this highly lustrous piece.(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25C4, PCGS# 7532, Greysheet# 8016)
