Lot 1438
1904 Lewis and Clark Gold Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64 PQ. Rich golden toning. 10,025 struck. This fully struck near-Gem has glowing gold surfaces and no problems to mention on either side other than a faint hairline or two. Very elusive in such choice condition and with intact mint color. Having covered the mint bloom, we take stock of the coin's detail. Clockwork precision seen in the hair and coat detail of the two portraits. The simple motifs for the Lewis & Clark commemorative dollar was the handiwork of the mint's assistant engraver at the time, Charles E. Barber (PCGS # 7447) .
Estimated Value $2,800 - 2,900.
