Lot 1647
1849-D $1 Gold Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Boldly struck and untoned. 21,588 coins minted. Brilliant and refreshingly clean for this scarce Dahlonega Mint issue, with flickering luster in the fields and sundrenched golden devices. The fields are mainly untoned and satin with much eye-appeal. It is interesting to see, as well, that it was struck from well-prepared dies that imported a sound and in point of fact, a bold design in the following areas: stars and coronet (with full 13 beads at the border), crisp hair and hair bun, and all of the leaves visible in the wreath. Very scarce. Pop 39; 24 finer.
Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500.
