Original $1375 Type 2 Indian Princess Design, Lustrous, Honey Green Gold, Near-Choice Original. Mintage for the 1854 and 1855 Type 2 Indian Princess gold dollar issues are quite similar at 783,943 and 758, 269 respectively. However, I've found the 1855 date to be less frequently encountered. Continuing from our old time U.S. gold supplier, is this honey green-gold example with steely luster. A reasonable strike is noted with heavy die clashing on the reverse. An obverse contact mark by (ST)ATES precludes a Choice quality rating but let's remember that the girding is accurately as an MS61. Housed in NGC Gen 14 (2003-2004) holder.
