Lot Description

Lustrous Choice AU 1858-D Gold Dollar 1858-D Gold Dollar. Winter 10-M, the only known dies. AU-58 (NGC). A bright and flashy piece with nearly full mint luster in a frosty texture. The fields also reveal semi-reflectivity under a light — very attractive. Vivid medium gold color with a tinge of pale olive, the strike is sharp apart from isolated softness in the centers and at the letter U in UNITED. This is a conditionally rare example of the 1858-D gold dollar, and its offering in this sale is sure to appeal to Southern gold specialists. The offered coin does not exhibit the curved depression in the left obverse field seen on most survivors of this issue. It does, however, show a number of shallow strike throughs in the lower right obverse field behind the hair curls along the back of Liberty's neck. PCGS# 7549. NGC ID: 25CJ.
