1852 Annular Gold Dollar in Gold
Judd-145 Thick, PR67+

1852 PG$1 Gold Dollar, Judd-145 Thick, Pollock-173, Low R.6, PR67+ PCGS. CAC. Ex: Simpson. An annular pattern with a wide opening that restricts the legends to the date, denomination, and country name. Room is found on the lower half of the reverse for a wreath ornament. Struck in gold with a plain edge. The issued gold dollar was essential to commerce in 1852, since silver coins were hoarded at the time. The gold dollar was a small piece and easily lost. This annular pattern was intended to provide the gold denomination in a larger, more convenient form. Various simple designs were struck (Judd-136 to Judd-148), but the implemented solution was to reduce the weight of several silver denominations, which returned them to circulation. The fields are bright and reflective with slightly variegated yellow-gold and lilac color on each side. Nearly perfect preservation.

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 299B, PCGS# 11602, GSID# 12155)
