Description
Elusive Choice AU 1856-S Gold Dollar
Interesting Type Two S-Mint Issue
1856-S G$1 Type Two AU55 PCGS. San Francisco skipped gold
dollar production in its second year of operation, 1855, then
resumed the denomination with the sole Type Two issue dated 1856,
the 1856-S. This golden-orange piece shows much of the luster
intact under light field chatter, but there are few singular marks.
The dies appear close to failure, with a bold crack running from
behind Liberty's head to the E in AMERICA and the rim. Rare so
finer. Population: 26 in 55, 58 finer (12/09).(Registry values: N1793)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25C8, PCGS# 7536, GSID# 8075)
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
