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.
