Losbeschreibung: 1861-D G$1 PCGS MS60 DLRC #: 1583692 // PCGS #: 7559 For a variety of reasons, the 1861-D is considered to be the most important and desirable gold coin produced at the Dahlonega mint. It is the single rarest collectible gold dollar, and it is the only issue conclusively produced entirely by the Confederacy. It is an issue with multiple levels of demand, and it has been coveted by collectors long before there was an established rare date gold market. An estimated 65-75 are known in total, with around a dozen or so having claims to Uncirculated status. Some of these higher graded coins have been processed and are no longer original as a result. Many others are off the market in tightly held collections. * Category : Gold Coinage * Series : $1 Gold * Type : Princess large head, type 3 * Years for Type : 1856-1889 * Strike : Business * Denomination : Gold dollar * Mint Location : Dahlonega * Designer : James B.
