Lot 836		1849. Open wreath. NGC graded MS-64. Well struck and untoned. The small head variety in which the upper coronet point and lower bust point are farthest away from the stars. A petite little design, one of Longacre's best and clearly expressed in the lovely golden color and luster as well as the rock-solid strike. Only the 8 of the date is at all weak. Variety with open wreath. Estimated Value $1,700 - 1,900. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 837		1849-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Well struck and untoned. Struck with controlled precision throughout the outer peripheral areas, although somewhat weak and compromised (from worn dies?) at the following locations: tops of the hair curls above LIBERTY, some of the stars (which have ghost outlines, a sure sign of worn dies), plus there are numerous die cracks featured on the reverse as that die began to come apart. A scarce little coin in this Mint condition. Only 21,588 minted. Pop 32; 16 in 63; 6 in 64; 1 in 65. (PCGS # 7507) . Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000.

Lot 838		1849-D $1 Gold Liberty. PCGS graded AU-58. Lightly toned. Pop 33; 41 finer. (PCGS # 7507) . Estimated Value $2,800 - 3,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,680
Lot 839		1850-C $1 Gold Liberty. VERY SCARCE MINT STATE 1850-C GOLD DOLLAR. NGC graded MS-61. A few little marks on the face and neck of Liberty. A bright golden specimen that spares no compromises with its golden iridescence on both sides. Strike is much sharper than average for the MS61 designation, although minor weakness occurs at the hair curls but none of the stars. There are moments when it seems impossible to complete a Mint State collection of gold dollars, but then this nice 1850-C comes along to tempt the bidder and all things seem possible! Pop 7; 3 in 62 as best at PCGS. (PCGS # 7510) . Estimated Value $9,000 - 10,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $9,775
Lot 840		1851-C $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Mostly untoned but with a few little dark toned areas. A well struck example of this affordable date. 41,267 struck. Pop 35; 28 finer. (PCGS # 7514) . Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,700. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,680
Lot 841		1851-C $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. Untoned. Small scrape by the dae. Struck with systematic exactness throughout, if one ignores the central part of the hair curls just below LIBE on the coronet where a somewhat flattened impression was left by the dies. Lustrous and very attractive; there is a single tiny rim mark at the 3 o'clock position on the obverse. Only 41,267 minted (PCGS # 7514) . Estimated Value $2,200 - 2,500. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,875
Lot 842		1851-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Untoned and boldly struck with only a small lack of detail on the curl tops below the coronet and on the junction of the shoulder at bottom. Only 9,882 minted. Luster still evident. Pop 21; 4 in 63; 5 in 64; 1 in 65. (PCGS # 7515) . Estimated Value $6,500 - 7,500. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $7,188
Lot 843		1851-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. A worldly measure of pouring golden luster livens up the wide expanse of surface on both sides, as well as between and on top of the devices. The fields are for all intents and purposes very choice, barring a few light hairlines, while the strike is intrepid enough to call for special mention, this being an 1851-D which more typically is found soft in places. Low mintage of 9,882 struck. Pop 21; 4 in 63; 5 in 64; 1 in 65. Estimated Value $6,500 - 7,500. Ex:Ashland City. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $7,475
Lot 844		1851-O $1 Gold Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62 PQ. This is a decidedly well-struck example with good details, unlike most. It has no bothersome abrasions or points of wear, as is often the case, nor did the dies leave behind a less than rigid impression of softness in the centers. The centers are fully detailed while the entire surface has very attractive frostiness (PCGS # 7516) . Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,250. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,323
Lot 845		1851-O $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Color is mostly light-gold in shade, but flickers of copper tinted iridescence can be found. Struck with the usual controlled strike of the New Orleans facility of the 1850s, meaning mostly sharp throughout the outer peripheral areas, although ever so slightly weak and at the hair waves above the brow. Scarce but not rare in Mint condition, as the census shows. Pop 116; 89 finer. (PCGS # 7516) . Estimated Value $950 - 1,050. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,150
Lot 846		1851-O $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Mostly untoned with nice eye-appeal from the frosty gold surface. What little toning there is adds markedly to the overall choiceness of this diminutive gold dollar of the first or Type 1 design. Only the Type 1 has Longacre's Liberty head wearing a pearl-lined coronet in her hair. The others were renditions of Liberty as an Indian princess with feather ornamentation (PCGS # 7516) . Estimated Value $950 - 1,050. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,093
Lot 847		1852-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. A hint of light toning. Nice strtike especially in the stars, with only minor flatness on the top of the head, the hair curls in the bun, etc. In 1851 the Philadelphia Mint shipped two 1852-D reverse dies to the Dahlonega Mint, but it is believed that only one actually saw service. At the time there were still sufficient undated obverse dies on hand to take care of anticipated requirements. In due course, 6,360 pieces were struck, but what happened to them no one knows for sure. It is known, however, that today the 1852-D is significantly rarer in Mint condition than even its low mintage suggests, and is a prime key in the series. Pop 16; 8 in 62; 2 in 63. (PCGS # 7519) . Estimated Value $7,000 - 8,500. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $8,625
Lot 848		1852-O $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Attractive reddish to yellow-gold color is nicely layered over each side of this lustrous gold dollar. Pop 41; 17 in 63; 8 in 64; 2 in 66. (PCGS # 7520) . Estimated Value $1,600 - 1,800. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,530
Lot 849		1852-O $1 Gold Liberty. SEGS graded MS-62. Probably a few points overgraded but still attractive enough for the collector who wants a slightly scarce O-mint gold dollar for a collection. Mintage was 140,000. Estimated Value $800 - 1,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $776
Lot 850		1853-C $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-63. Light golden toning. Small mark at 6:00 on obv. by the star. First of a pair of choice Mint quality gold dollars from this storied mint in North Carolina. Weakly impressed on the rim denticles as often seen, and with marginally flat hair curls on Liberty, yet is is replete with mint frost from center to periphery, obverse to reverse. Only 11,515 minted. Pop 12; 2 in 64; 1 in 65. (PCGS # 7522) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 851		1853-C $1 Gold Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62. Well struck with lovely golden toning. This exciting gold dollar jewel has nice gold luster with warm orange toning. Softly struck on the high points of Liberty's hair. Although the surfaces do show very minor abrasions, overall, this is one of the choicer 1853-C gold dollars. Not specifically mentioned by Douglas Winter in his roster of finest examples, he notes only one MS-63 example, another graded MS-60 to 63, and the balance of Mint State examples all in the MS-60 range. Winter further notes that this is one of the rarest Charlotte Mint gold dollars in Mint State condition. Only 11,515 minted. Pop 8; 2 in 63 as best by PCGS. (PCGS # 7522) . Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $7,188
Lot 852		1853-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Well struck and untoned. Flashy looking coin. Lustrous greenish yellow gold with extremely choice surfaces. The quality of this example is exceeded by very few, if any other survivors from the mintage of just 6,583 coins. Sharply struck with nice rounded cheek on Liberty, better than average depth of detail on the highest points of the hair and among the wreath. The borders are bold and complete as well, a nice change from your usual D-mint strike. Pop 10; 5 in 63; 2 in 64; 1 in 66. (PCGS # 7523) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $12,650
Lot 853		1854-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. A few minor marks in the left obv field. This eye-catching Dahlonega gold dollar has warm orange gold luster with a hint of yellow left, and features a very clean surface for the grade, free of serious marks or problems. Douglas Winter, in his gold dollar section on the D-mint gold, listed only four Mint State examples of this date, with another small group of AU-58 coins. Of course, he was unaware of this example and it is not listed in his census. Quite obviously, it ranks in the Condition Census. The 1854-D has the lowest mintage of any Type I gold dollar. Reasonable strike, on a par with others from the mint, although the upper hair curls are weak. Among Type I gold dollars of the 1849-1854 era, the 1854-D stands alone among Dahlonega issues. First, it is by far the rarest, both in its mintage (2,935) and from the position of examples than can be found today. It is believed that all were struck from one reverse die (the obverse has not been as closely studied), this die being one of three shipped to Dahlonega for use in 1854. Pop 7; 1 in 63. (PCGS # 7526) . Estimated Value $13,000 - 14,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $14,950
Lot 854		1854 $1 Gold Indian. Numistrust graded MS-62 Type 2. We note a couple of faint scratches on the face. Our grade is MS60. Still lustrous and well struck for the Type. Scarce. Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,500. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 855		1854 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded AU-58. Untoned and displaying very sharp detail in the petite feather headdress that Liberty wears. Lustrous (PCGS # 7531) . Estimated Value $1,000 - 1,100. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,035
Lot 856		1855 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-62. Frosty and untoned, a few light hairlines in the field, with contrasting brownish toning on the highest feather puffs and hair waves. Scarce Type 2 design. The Indian small head gold dollar -- second of three circulating U.S. gold coins of this denomination -- was short-lived. Fabrication of the coin, designed by Chief Mint Engraver James Barton Longacre, was carried out over just three calendar years: 1854, 1855 and 1856. The mintage for circulation totaled 1,752,219 pieces split between five production facilities: Philadelphia (no mint mark), San Francisco (S mint mark), New Orleans (O mint mark), Dahlonega, Georgia (D mint mark), and Charlotte, North Carolina (C mint mark). The mint mark is positioned on the coin's reverse, below the wreath. More than 94 percent of the mintage of the Indian small head came from the Philadelphia Mint the first two years, with mint records of 902,736 struck in 1854 and 758,269 in 1855 (PCGS # 7532) . Estimated Value $3,500 - 3,700. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 857		1855. NGC graded AU-58. It is always difficult to locate a choice, lustrous example of this scarce Type 2 design; the present coin meets or exceeds the requirement for high-end AU by displaying copious amounts of frost aaround the devices as well as throughout the fields (PCGS # 7532) . Estimated Value $950 - 1,050. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $978
Lot 858		1855 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded AU-55. Untoned; weakly struck in the centers and the fields well abraded with light circulation scratches. Also, the fields show die clash marks around Liberty as well as a ghost image of Liberty within the wreath on the reverse (PCGS # 7532) . Estimated Value $800 - 900. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $633
Lot 859		1855-C $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded MS-60. Retooled obv. fields. Expert rim repair @ K12. Desirable with this meticulous strike on the feathers and most of the wreath, even though we need to point out some noticeable signs of weakness in the hair below LIBERTY. Our grade is sharpness of AU with the aforementioned problems. Estimated Value $7,500 - 9,500. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 860		1855-C $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded AU-58. Struck from clash dies as made. Our grade is sharpness of EF and cleaned. A notoriously poorly struck coin. The surfaces still retain evidence of luster that justifies the assigned grade in spite of the roughness and uneven strike. Only 9,803 minted. Estimated Value $7,500 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 861		1855-O $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded AU-55. The 1855-O is doubly popular because it is not only a one-year type coin, but it is also the final year of production for the gold dollar from the New Orleans mint. In the later 1850s, this mint concentrated on silver coinage as well as $5 to $20 gold coins. Choice and lustrous for the grade. Pop 135; 64 finer. (PCGS # 7535) . Estimated Value $2,500 - 2,800. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,645
Lot 862		1857-C $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded MS-60. Struck on a rough planchet as usual. Nice light gold toning. A blunt impression was left by the recoil of the dies that struck this 1857-C, and reveals itself in flattened hair curls and a smooth profile on Liberty. In Uncirculated, the '57-C must be respected as a rare coin. Add to this the fact that this issue is the premier Type Three Gold Dollar from the fabled Southern branch mint and one can easily see the importance and desirability of the present offering. Pop 2; 4 in 61; 2 in 62. (PCGS # 7545) . Estimated Value $8,000 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $8,913
Lot 863		1857-C $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded AU-58. Mint Error. Reverse Lamination. 13,280 struck. Mostly untoned; a lustrous example. Pop 34; 8 finer. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 864		1857-D $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-62. Nice untoned date. There are a few marks on the cheek, but this is still a choice lustrous example of a very rare issue. Struck with usual lackadaisical Dahlonega Mint press operator by the dies in the outer margins and on most legends and devices, and portions of the inner design were also left weak by the imprint of the dies. Only 3,533 struck. Pop 5; none finer. (PCGS # 7546) . Estimated Value $12,000 - 14,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 865		1857-D $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded AU-58. Mostly untoned. Only 3,533 struck. Pop 11; 13 finer. (PCGS # 7546) . Estimated Value $4,800 - 5,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 866		1858-D $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded MS-62. Untoned and very frosty. Lots of mint luster. Struck with not quite the required mathematical precision by the dies, as is often seen on D-mint gold, some areas are incomplete by an unsuccessful strike left by the rebound of the dies, including most upper hair waves and curls as well as the central part of the feathers in the headdress below the puffs. Only 3,477 struck. Pop 15; 7 in 63; 1 in 66. (PCGS # 7549) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $12,363
Lot 867		1858-D $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded MS-61. Nice strike. Untoned and nice luster. Frosty light reddish gold with a trace of deeper yellow shading. A relatively sharp strike with light abrasions. Only 3,477 minted. Pop 9; 15 in 62; 7 in 63; 1 in 66. (PCGS # 7549) . Estimated Value $9,000 - 10,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $9,775
Lot 868		1858-D $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded MS-62. Sharply struck and quite lustrous. Our grade is MS60 with faint hairlines from light cleaning, mainly on the cheek. There were only 3,477 gold dollars minted in Dahlonega in 1858. In addition to quarter and half eagles, the Dahlonega Mint struck gold dollars beginning in 1849. The first style was small in diameter and featured a bust of Liberty wearing a coronet. The size of the gold dollar was increased in 1854, and Liberty's coronet was replaced by a feathered headdress. Slightly modified for better striking quality in 1856, this third type was minted through the end of production at Dahlonega in 1861. All three types featured a wreath on their reverses and were the work of U. S. Mint Chief Engraver James B. Longacre (1844-69). The 'D' mintmark appeared below the bow of the wreath. Estimated Value $6,000 - 7,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $5,865
Lot 869		1858-D $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded AU-55. Low mintage of 3,477. Untoned and a nice strike, although the planchet is a little rough. A lustrous example of this scarce year. Pop 15; 64 finer. (PCGS # 7549) . Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,335
Lot 870		1859-C $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-62. Only 5,235 minted. Well struck for this date, the centers show soft hair definition while the rim denticles are partially gone on the lower obverse (as seen in the photographs). Even golden to warm orange toning on both sides with grand eye appeal despite the few faint hairlines. Pop 7; 3 in 63 as best by PCGS. (PCGS # 7552) . According to detailed research done by Harry Bass and posted on the Bass Foundation website, planchets were produced at the Charlotte Mint by casting gold into ingots, then running the ingots through a rolling mill, reducing the spacing between the rollers several times until the acquired thinness was obtained. Many subsequent planchets made from these strips have defects and metal occlusions of one sort or another. Estimated Value $15,000 - 18,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $16,100
Lot 871		1859-C $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-61. Only 5,235 minted. Well struck for this "C" mint, though with the usual softness in the design of Liberty's hair. Nice reddish golden toning with luster still visable. Pop 6; 7 in 62; 3 in 63. (PCGS # 7552) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. View details Check results on similar lots	Realized $11,500
Lot 872		1859-D $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded MS-62. Well struck, bright and lustrous. We note 3 fine scratches in the left obv. field. Our grade is MS60 cleaned. With the introduction of the gold dollar in 1849, the Dahlonega Mint immediately contributed to its production. Some 4,952 examples were coined there in 1859. Production of this denomination continued annually through 1861. The high figure of 1849 (over 21,000 pieces) was never again achieved, however, and the smallest recorded mintage occurred in 1856, when a mere 1,460 pieces were made, making this one of the scarcest branch mints in the Gold Dollar series. Estimated Value $5,000 - 6,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $5,578
Lot 873		1860-S $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-64. Light gold toning. Only 13,000 struck. Only five Type III gold dollars were produced at the San Francisco Mint with a combined mintage of 51,000. The 1860-S in near-gem condition being offered here is a Condition Census example and the only San Francisco gold dollar from the 1860s. The surfaces are satiny and showcase soft peach-gold coloration with hints of reddish gold. A beautiful undulation of frosty luster in the fields is present on the central reverse. Liberty's device is sharply struck and shows no scratches. Not only this, but aside from some very minute lines in the fields, this coin grades gem condition and we feel that careful inspection should be given to this piece. A strong case could be made that the San Francisco Type III gold dollars are undervalued in near-gem and gem condition, given the extremely low census figures. Pop 2; 1 in 65 as best at PCGS. (PCGS # 7557) . Estimated Value $8,500 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $10,925
Lot 874		1862 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded Proof 64 Deep Cameo PQ. Only 35 proofs minted. An untoned gem. Rich bright-gold and fresh devices, this handsome Gold Dollar is nicely layered over each side of with frosted relief suggesting the "deep cameo" effect mentioned on the coin's grading holder. For 1862, it is a strongly struck example, with excellent detail to all the important high points. Where sometimes you'll see the add on "with the possible exception of these regions (standard for the issue)", we are thrilled to say that no such add on is required, the coin is premium quality without the least hesitation on our part. Pop 2; none higher. The only 2 DCAM graded at PCGS. (PCGS # 97612) . Estimated Value $13,000 - 15,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $16,675
Lot 875		1879 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded Proof 64. Old green holder. Lovely rich golden toning. Low mintage of 30 proofs struck. Pop 3; 1 in 65; 1 in 66. (PCGS # 7629) . Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $8,050
Lot 876		1880 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded MS-68. A nice coin with light even gold colors. Semi reflective. Sparkling golden iridescence permeates this satiny perfection of this 1880 gold dollar with a life of its own. Add a sky-scraping level of mint frostiness on Liberty's profile and the appeal is very tempting. Pop 15; 1 in 68 Star. (PCGS # 7581) . Estimated Value $7,000 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $8,625
Lot 877		1886 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded Proof 64. Mostly untoned. A coin with the dignity that makes a strong showing in the field of gold dollar Proofs, the devices show no diminishment in their brilliance, while only a small area of roughness (as made) is located on the hair behind Liberty's ear. Respectful inquiry into the condition of the surfaces reveals only a few light hairlines, but no marks or toning spots to mar the attractive fields. Only 1,016 struck. Pop 8; 3 finer in proof. (PCGS # 7636) . Estimated Value $4,000 - 4,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $4,600
Lot 878		1887 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded Proof 66 Cameo. Rich golden toning on both sides. Creamy smooth color with rich orange-gold overlay on top of gleaming mirror fields; further to its benefit, we see none of the usual tiny alloy spots or hairlines, but instead, the most desirable feature of them all on a gold Proof: strong cameo contrast between the fields and devices, the latter being satin frosted. A lovely coin. Pop 3; 1 in 67 CAM (PCGS # 87637) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $12,363
Lot 879		1887 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded Proof 64 Cameo. Rich golden toning. The lustrous frosty golden devices compete with the rich golden toned mirror fields on this handsome cameo specimen. Extra sharp head details on Liberty. A truly beautiful specimen of a fashionable Proof gold coin from our the late 19th century Philadelphia Mint. Pop 16; 20 finer in proof cameo. 1043 struck in proof. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $4,255
Lot 880		1887 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded Proof 64 Cameo. Light gold toning. An astonishing cameo Proof of the best possible order for its grade, a coin whose satiny devices play host to robust mirrors on either side. Quite close to gem quality. Only 1043 struck in proof. Pop 16; 20 finer in proof cameo. Estimated Value $5,000 - 5,500. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $4,370
Lot 881		1887 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded MS-67 PQ. Lovely rich golden toning. Glittering, or semi-refletive mirrors in degrees that will please the collector, with warm flaxen-gold to orange-gold color. Struck with exactitude by the dies as are most dates in the 1880s, a pleasant surprise. Pop 20; none higher at PCGS. Only 8,543 struck (PCGS # 7588) . Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,700. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,910
Lot 882		1887 $1 Gold Indian. NGC graded MS-67. The mint bloom gently rolls around the surfaces as the coin is tilted beneath a light and shimmers beneath an even layer of coppery-gold and orange patina that covers both sides. A superb boldly struck gem. Pristine surfaces. Pop 13; 1 better. (PCGS # 7588) . Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 883		1887 $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded Proof 62. Pale olive and light golden orange. We agree with assigned grade. The popularity of Proof Gold Dollars was firmly established at the time these were minted. Collectors, a few of them at any rate, with the means and the desire, bought up much of the mintage and held it well into the 20th century, when these were released to newer collectors in dribs and drabs. Today, a choice Proof 1887 like this always turns heads with its picturesque qualities and golden allure. Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,400. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $2,185
Lot 884		1889 $1 Gold Indian. PCGS graded Proof 63 Cameo. Nice strike and untoned. Sleek mirror luster graces the field while satiny and lively golden frost give contrast on the devices. Varying hues of gold mingle broadly with rich gold iridescence. An attractive cameo Proof that shows off its bold strike to good effect. Well struck Cameo Proof 1889 Gold Dollar.
