Cleaned $1250 Popular New Orleans Gold Dollar Date, Steely Luster, No Hairlines Whatsoever. According to Doug Winter, "the 155-O is the most popular New Orleans gold dollar" as a one year type date for the Type 2 Indian Princess design (1854-1856). PCGS has assigned a Genuine opinion which appears to be in question based on my experience cataloging U.S. gold. Steely luster is noted on the peripheries with natural orange-gold radiating. Centers are a dull brownish-gray with wear being evident on the high points. In-hand eye appeal is acceptable for a type set as the offer price is attractive.

Choice $800 Partially Mirrored, Sharp Reflectance, Choice Original. Sure, the 1862 Philadelphia $1 gold issue falls into the common date realm given a mintage of 1,361,355. I'm not surprised that PCGS has certified several examples as Prooflike given the partially mirrored fields seen on this example. Both sides are equally mirrorred with sharp reflective luster with the underlying coloration being honey green-gold. Heavy die striations are readily apparent on the obverse and to lesser extent on the reverse. The field exhibit a few wispy hairlines that are amplified by the mirrored fields. From an old time collection that has been off the market for at least a decade or more. Submitted to CAC where it was not approved. Regardless, this piece warrants a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendations due to the coloration and mirrors that are differentiated from most other examples seen. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.

Choice $3250 Rare Low Mintage Issue, Partially Mirrored, Yellow-Gold, A Near-Gem, CAC Approved. A top quality 1872 Type 3 gold piece that is consistently difficult to acquire by gold dollar collectors. A rare date when fully choice given the low mintage of only 3,500. This new acquisition is fully struck with deeply impressed motifs, partially mirrored fields, and an overall yellow-gold coloration. David Akers opines that, "The 1872 is one of my favorite dates in the gold dollar series. Except for the 1875, it is the scarcest date after 1870 and is really very rare in choice condition." The rarity is easily corroborated by checking the CAC census with only 17 approved in all grades. The CAC price guide stands at $3,300 at the offered graded and jumps to $4,500 at the MS64 level. A compelling offering for those assembling a $1 gold set. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.

Gem $2500 Low Mintage Issue, Missing Liberty Lettering, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Gem Original. 1879 gold dollar mintage is 3,000 and actually is more difficult to locate than the subsequent 1880 issue whereby only 1,600 were produced with hoarding increasing availability. This 1879 example is consistent with reported examples lacking most of the lettering in LIBERTY. This is an attractive gem with variegated orange and white gold shades. The reverse is particularly eye catching with the left side exhibiting bluish-white and the opposite being orange-gold. Under angled lighting, the steely-frosted radiance is substantial with vibrant cartwheels. Heavy reverse die clashing is also noted for accuracy. An unquestionable gem that was submitted to CAC without approval. I believe this is a notable example and you will too! Housed in PCGS Gen 4.1 (2003-2004) holder.

However, a careful inspection of this VP-001, from the the Oregon Beaver Colleftion, revealed all four digits being repunched lower and to the left.

Reverse fields are frosted with corresponding bright light appearance. Overall luster was so intense that the standard contrast application, during GFRC image processing, was dampened to accurate capture visual effects. The assigned MS64 grade is a function of faint obverse chatter in the field and on the cheek. Frankly, the luster far outweighs any contact marks. Limited mintage of 6,000.

This is an accurately grade near-gem with steely-frosted luster and swirling cartwheels based on the usual desk lamp inspection. Coloration is a rich honey-green gold while light field luster breaks are consistent with the certified grade. Strike is fully executed. The CAC census stands at 136 in all grades only ten finer which should give pause. This offering is priced below the $3000 CAC price guide value.
