| 124025 | GOLD 1855 C $1 AU53 PCGS | $ 8,500.00 |
| MINTAGE 9.803 TYPE TWO GOLD DOLLAR. In 1854, the mint changed the size and the
design of the gold dollar. The design copied the new Three Dollar introduced in
1854. MINTED in CHARLOTTE for ONLY ONE YEAR. It was abandoned in 1856 due to
design flaws. The Obverse relief was too high and the planchets were too thin to
bring up all of the obverse details during the striking process. The
1855-C gold dollars are plagued by mint-made planchet problems. EXTREMELY POPULAR COIN and RARE IN ALL GRADES and VERY RARE IN AU55+. PCGS HAS ONLY GRADED
26 COINS HIGHER THAN AU53. From an old collection.- |

| TYPE III GOLD CHARLOTTE ONE DOLLAR.... MINTAGE ONLY 13,280 ----- TOTAL KNOWN 300-400!----- THE DIAMETER WAS NOT CHANGED but tyhe INDIAN PRINCESS DESIGN was MADE BROADER and
PLACED CLOSER to the BORDER....... THE RELIEF DETAILS were LOWERED in an ATTEMPT to
MAKE the STRIKE SHARPTER on BOTH OBVERSE and REVERSE..... THE NEW DESIGN DID NOT
CHANGE the QUALITY of STRIKE and it was as BAD as the 1855 YEAR. THE 1857 GENERALLY SHOWS a very POOR STRIKE with WEAK HAIR DETAILS and FAINT
PLUMES. THE BOW KNOTS TEND to be WEAK and is OFTEN MISTAKEN for WEAR..... THE DATE
IS USUALLY WEAK as WELL as THE "O" IN DOLLAR...... IT ALMOST ALWAYS WILL BE FOUND
WITH MINT MADE PLANCHET DEFECTS...... VERY FEW will SHOW MINT LUSTER...... ORIGINAL
SURFCES WITH RICH GREEN-GOLD COLORATION. EVEN with ALL THE MINT MADE ISSUES THIS
ONE HAS GREAT EYE APPEAL. STRONG DATE!!!!...STRONG MINT MARK.....STRONG DETAILS |
