1881 Gold Dollar, MS68+
Only One Coin Finer at PCGS

1881 G$1 MS68+ PCGS. This is about as close to a perfect gold dollar as one could hope to find. Every aspect of this diminutive coin's design is absolutely fully rendered, including the cotton bolls on the headdress, the curls, legends, wreath elements, and bow knot. Both sides feature luminous yellow-gold color and vibrantly frosted mint luster. The 1881 claims a limited mintage of 7,620 coins, and while the average graded awarded falls between MS64 and MS65, on a single example is graded higher than this Superb Gem at PCGS. Population: 47 in 68 (5 in 68+), 1 finer (9/20).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 25DK, PCGS# 7582, Greysheet# 8044)
