Lot 1441
1903 Louisiana Purchase-McKinley Gold Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 63. Housed in an Old Green Holder. A wonderful Brilliant Proof example with glittering mirror fields and frosted cameo devices; all delicately toned. Truly a lovely Proof example and quite choice for the grade. To commemorate the Louisiana Purchase Exposition, a hundred brilliant Proofs were struck of both the Jefferson and McKinley types. It often happens that when coins are sold to collectors as well as the general public many were mishandled over the years, and today few exist in choice, undamaged condition. There are no obvious surface blemishes on either obverse or reverse. The only ripple in the fabric of the coin, so to speak, are a few light planchet flakes, which from the outside resemble abrasions. A thrilling and very rare Proof commemorative gold dollar.Pop 6; 28 finer (PCGS # 7483) .
Estimated Value $8,000 - 8,500.
