- Lot Description
- 1861 Gold Dollar. MS-67 (NGC). Conditionally rare for this otherwise readily obtainable Type III Gold Dollar issue, the importance of this 1861 for Superb Gem type purposes cannot be overstated. A beautiful coin, both sides are bathed in softly frosted luster. The dominant color is one of an orange-gold shade, but we do note equally attractive highlights of pale-silver iridescence scattered about in and around the centers. Sharply struck throughout, with nary a distracting blemish in evidence. At the top of Condition Census!
