Description

1857-S Gold Dollar, MS61
Conditionally Rare

1857-S G$1 MS61 NGC. A particularly challenging San Francisco issue with a mintage of only 10,000 pieces. Mint State examples are rare, and are seemingly underappreciated compared to the more popular Charlotte and Dahlonega issues from this period. This piece is well-struck, with soft, wheat-gold luster. A few light, scattered abrasions limit the grade. Census: 9 in 61, 6 finer (11/14).
