- Condition Rarity 1858-D Gold Dollar
1858-D Gold Dollar. Winter 10-M, the only known dies. MS-62 (PCGS).
A bright and flashy piece with full mint luster in a satiny texture. The fields also reveal semi-reflectivity under a light - very attractive. Vivid golden-orange color with a tinge of pale olive, the strike is sharp with no mentionable softness. This is a conditionally rare example of the 1858-D gold dollar, and its offering in this sale is sure to appeal to Southern gold specialists.
The 1858-D may be among the more readily obtainable gold dollars from this rustic Southern coinage facility, but the issue is an undeniable numismatic rarity in an absolute sense. For starters, only 3,477 pieces were produced. Commercial use either claimed most examples outright or reduced them to circulated grades such as VF, EF or, less often, low end AU. Finally, there was little, if any numismatic interest in the issue at the time, with the result that few coins have come down to the present day in grades at or near Mint State.
Provenance: From the George Schwenk Collection. Earlier from our sale of the Augustana Collection, Winter 2022 Auction, November, lot 9013.
PCGS Population: 7; 12 finer (MS-65 finest).
