1861-D G$1 MS (PCGS#7559)

The Summer 2022 Global Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

详细说明: Fabled 1861-D Gold Dollar in Choice Mint State Struck Solely by the Confederate States of America 1861-D Gold Dollar. Winter 12-Q, the only known dies. MS-63 (PCGS). CAC. This incredible Choice Uncirculated rarity is bathed in vivid olive-orange color. The design elements are haloed by soft, satiny luster, with significant, frosty concentrations in the recessed areas. Smooth and well composed for the assigned grade, a small area of planchet roughness (as made) adjacent to the right cotton ball of the reverse wreath remains the only notable imperfection. Characteristic weakness is apparent to the aforementioned regions, with the letter U in UNITED entirely obscured and portions of the reverse wreath removed by die polishing. Despite these oversights in workmanship, the coin is delightful. It is wholesome and warm, rich with hue and luster that is only enhanced by the incredible narrative surrounding its striking. A true national treasure and certainly a monumental find for Southern Gold enthusiasts.
