Description

1860-D Gold Dollar, AU58
Landmark Dahlonega Issue
Only 1,566 Coins Struck

1860-D G$1 AU58 PCGS. Winter 12-P. The small 1,566-piece mintage makes the 1860-D gold dollar scarce in any grade, especially in grades lower than XF and in high About Uncirculated or finer grades. Many pieces are ex-jewelry or have other impairments and virtually all 1860-D gold dollars are poorly struck in areas. The U in UNITED is weak as always and the 6 in in the date is closed and partially filled on this coin. As usual, the bow knot lacks definition and the left obverse and reverse rims are incomplete, with the associated dentils indistinct. In other ways, this example is far sharper than expected. DOLLAR is crisply struck and the plumes and face curls are bold for the grade. Given the 1860-D's rarity in Mint State, this near-Mint example is offers an exceptional opportunity for the branch mint gold collector. A few light marks and wispy abrasions do not distract the eye. This softly lustrous green-gold coin's overall quality far exceeds most of its counterparts, approaching parity with the few pieces that are numerically finer. PCGS Population: 12 in 58 (1 in 58+), 12 finer (10/25).(Registry values: N4719)
