- Blended honey-olive and champagne-apricot colors are seen on both sides of this attractively original example. Remarkably smooth for a pre-Civil War era Southern gold coin that saw light circulation. Overall bold detail to the central design elements is also notable. This issue is a favorite among mintmarked gold type collectors and Southern gold specialists alike, most of whom settle for an VF or EF coin. Just 89,678 pieces were struck for the 1853-D, and this conditionally scarce Choice AU is certainly among the more desirable survivors.
