1859-D G$1 MS (PCGS#7553)

The November 2010 Baltimore Auction

详细说明: 1859-D Gold Dollar. Winter 11-N. MS-62 (NGC). This is a vivid example awash in rich, handsome, olive-orange color. The strike is exceptionally sharp by Dahlonega Mint standards, as typically seen for the issue, and we do not hesitate to describe the overall definition as sharp. Satiny with modest granularity to the texture, the texture even includes modest hints of semi reflectivity that are best observed as the coin dips into a light. A lack of sizeable or otherwise individually distracting abrasions further enhances the appearance of this already impressive BU-quality survivor.<br />     Despite its status as one of the most plentiful D-mint Gold Dollars, the 1859-D is still a conditionally challenging issue that is nothing short of rare in Mint State. Uncs are thought to number fewer than 20 or 25 coins, in fact, and the present example is certainly among the highest graded available in the current market.
