Description
Gleaming MS68 ★ 1880 Gold Dollar
1880 G$1 MS68 ★ NGC. Just 1,600 business strike gold dollars and 36 proofs were coined in 1880, this being several years before the large proof production later in the decade. While few of the business strikes actually circulated, nearly all survivors are in the middle Mint State grades from MS64 through MS66. Superb Gems, whether MS67 coins or better (as with this gorgeous survivor), are elusive and prized. This sensational example has satiny gold luster in the fields, with frosty and lustrous devices. Light cameo contrast on both sides adds to the exceptional eye appeal. This is a lovely example that will please the connoisseur. Census: 2 in 68 ★ , none finer regardless of Star designation (3/09).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25DJ, PCGS# 7581, GSID# 8043)
