Sharp Near-Gem 1855 Gold Dollar

1855 G$1 MS64 PCGS. CAC. Produced in nearly equal numbers, the 1854 and 1855 Type Two gold dollars are the obvious type coins of choice for those who need not acquire a mintmarked piece, which would further compound the chase for a superior example. The present piece shows a combination of satiny and frosty luster on both sides, with some light clash marks visible on the lower obverse and bolder remnants on the upper reverse. A more-than-generous strike for the issue and a relative lack of singular abrasions are responsible for the near-Gem grade of this lovely and high-end piece. (Registry values: N7079)
