Description
MS68 1882 Gold Dollar
Gleaming Yellow-Gold Surfaces
1882 G$1 MS68 NGC. CAC. By 1882, the gold dollar was a
novelty of the money system, rather than the essential add-on it
had been at the time of the California Gold Rush. The year's token
mintage of 5,000 coins that were nominally for circulation went
largely to gift-giving instead. As a result, well-preserved coins
are the rule, though examples so well-preserved as this MS68 piece
are the exception. Pale yellow-gold surfaces swirl with gleaming
luster, and sharply struck devices are impressively preserved. A
slight deepening of the color toward apricot is noted at parts of
the margins. Census: 12 in 68, 0 finer (8/11).From The Milly Chaykin Collection.(Registry values: N4719)
