- Desirable 1853-D Gold Dollar
1853-D Gold Dollar. Winter 5-G, the only known dies. MS-62 (NGC).
Bright yellow-gold color with warmer pale honey tones in the fields. The luster is superb for the assigned grade, with generous amounts seen among the protected design elements. Characteristically soft in strike at the central obverse high point, yet bold to sharp elsewhere, this is certainly one of the most desirable 1853-D gold dollars extant at the assigned grade level. Q. David Bowers (2011) estimates that 25 to 35 Mint State examples exist for this issue, although that range might be too high given Doug Winter's (2013) estimate of just 10 to 15+ at the same level. Regardless, the elusiveness of this issue in attractive Uncirculated preservation is beyond doubt, and this offering is a seldom-encountered opportunity for the dedicated Southern gold specialist.
Provenance: From our (American Numismatic Rarities') C.L. Lee Sale, September 2005, lot 1006.
NGC Census: 12; 10 finer (MS-66 finest).
PCGS# 7523. NGC ID: 25BW.
