Description
1857 Gold Dollar
Unsung Scarcity in Gem Condition
1857 G$1 MS65 NGC. The 1857 is a high-mintage issue
perceived to be relatively easy to locate, yet our auction records
suggest it is anything but that in Gem or finer grades. The Garrett
and Guth reference suggests, "Gem examples of this date are much
rarer than later dates of the gold dollar series." Frosty and
lustrous, the present coin is coruscated with attractive
greenish-gold patina. A glass reveals no serious marks, although
the left wreath top is a bit incomplete. The eye appeal is
exceptional. Census: 11 in 65, 8 finer (8/16).From The Twelve Oaks Collection.(Registry values: N2998)
Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25CD, PCGS# 7544, Greysheet# 8019)
Weight: 1.67 grams
Metal: 90% Gold, 10% Copper
