Description
1870 Gold Dollar, MS67
One of the Finer Known Examples
1870 G$1 MS67 PCGS. During the seven years following the
Civil War, gold dollars were a low priority item at the
Philadelphia Mint, where mintage numbers ranged from 7,100 pieces
to a mere 3,500 coins. In 1870, the gold dollar mintage in
Philadelphia was 6,300 examples, a meager number with perhaps a
better rate of survival than some of the other low-mintage issues
from this era. The current Superb Gem is one of the better
representatives of this date that we have examined in recent years,
as it presents an impressive and visually pleasing appearance, free
of mentionable flaws. The motifs are sharply rendered and the
lightly toned surfaces are highlighted by soft, shimmering mint
frost. One of the finer examples known at either of the major
services. Population: 8 in 67 (1 in 67+), 1 finer (9/14).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25D6, PCGS# 7569, Greysheet# 8032)
