1880 G$1 MS (PCGS#7581)

The Summer 2022 Global Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

详细说明: 1880 Gold Dollar. MS-67+ (NGC). CAC. This piece is a truly gorgeous Superb Gem Type III gold dollar remaining vibrant and satiny in finish, with both sides revealing modest semi-reflectivity in the fields. The toning is exquisite with pale rose highlights on dominant golden-orange patina. A razor sharp strike and virtually pristine appearance round out the attributes for this beautiful coin. With only 1,600 pieces produced, the 1880 has the lowest mintage among circulation strike gold dollars from the Philadelphia Mint excepting only the fabled 1875. However, the 1880 is obtainable today as many were sold to numismatists at the time of issue. Contemporary numismatic interest in low mintage circulation strike gold dollars began in earnest in 1879 and continued through the series' end in 1889, explaining the overall availability of issues such as the 1880 and the generally high quality of many of the survivors. Even so, this MS-67+ example is a distinct cut above the norm, and it numbers among the finer examples known to NGC. It will be equally well suited for high grade type or date purposes. NGC Census: 4; 28 finer (MS-68+ finest). PCGS# 7581. NGC ID: 25DJ. Click here for certification details from NGC.
