Lot Description

1866 Gold Dollar. MS-63 (NGC). An appealing coin for both the lustrous surfaces and the sharp strike. Bathed in natural coppery-gold hues with attractive surfaces. As always seen on the circulation strikes of the year, evidence of die clashing is found in the fields. The original mintage of 7,100 pieces filtered into the post Civil war era, with most disappearing long ago. Random survivors today make up the majority that exist.
