Description
1870-S Gold Dollar, MS64
Historical San Francisco Issue
1870-S G$1 MS64 NGC. Although the cornerstone for the second
San Francisco Mint building was laid in 1870, coinage was
accomplished at the original Mint building that began operations 16
years earlier. All San Francisco Mint gold dollars were struck at
the first Mint, including the 1854-S Type One, the 1856-S Type Two,
and the 1857-S, 1858-S, 1859-S, 1860-S, and 1870-S Type Three
coins.Most 1870-S gold dollars that survive from the 3,000-coin mintage are Mint State or very nearly so. NGC has certified 57 submissions in all grades including 48 coins that grade AU58 to MS63. Just four coins are below that range and five coins, including the present specimen, are above that range. This beautiful Choice Mint State piece features a gold strike and frosty, brilliant yellow-gold luster. Scattered marks prevent a higher grade. Census: 3 in 64, 2 finer (11/22).
