Condition Rarity 1858-D Select Gold Dollar

1858-D G$1 MS63 PCGS. Variety 10-M, the only die pairing. The 1858-D dollar, with an original mintage of only 3,477 pieces, is a rare coin in all grades. Douglas Winter, in his Gold Coins of the Dahlonega Mint, writes that it is fairly easy to locate in Very Fine and Extremely Fine grades. It becomes scarce in About Uncirculated, and is rare in Mint State.
The peach-gold surfaces of this Select example display hints of light green, and possess nice luster. Most of the design elements are well impressed, though portions of the bonnet and bow knot show the typical softness, as does the 5 in the date. A few minute handling marks occur on the obverse, and clash marks are visible on the reverse. Population: 8 in 63, 4 finer (10/08).(Registry values: N7079)
