1849-C $1 Gold Liberty. Closed wreath. NGC graded MS-61. Beams of frosted mint luster and rich tawny orange-gold hues. Desirable with this precision strike and unusual for 1849-C. The stars are complete, as is the hair curl detail on Liberty. Even Liberty's coronet inscribed LIBERTY shows the 13 tiny pearls or beads along its border. Were it only possible for all Liberty Type 1 dollars to look like this!
Estimated Value $300 - 330.
Frank McCarthy Collection.
