1879 Gold Dollar. MS-65 (NGC).Lovely satin surfaces are fully struck and display vivid medium gold patina. Although the 1879 is a low mintage gold dollar with just 3,000 circulation strikes produced, Mint State examples are relatively available in todays market. This is the first low mintage gold dollar that was widely saved by contemporary numismatists, a practice that would continue through the series end in 1889. Gems are scarce, however, and the present offering is sure to catch the eye of discerning gold enthusiasts.From the Beasley Collection.
