1836 Gobrecht Silver Dollar. Name on Base. Judd-60 Original, Pollock-65. Rarity-1. Dannreuther Reverse Die State a. Silver. Plain Edge. Die Alignment I. Proof-58 (PCGS).A second opportunity for the advanced type collector or silver dollar specialist to acquire an example of this scarce and challenging type. This is a lightly toned coin, both sides veiled in smoky silver-gray with hints of pale gold iridescence evident as the surfaces dip into a light. Direct viewing angles also reveal plenty of semi-reflective brilliance in the fields, especially in the protected areas around the devices. The strike is sharply executed with virtually all design elements fully defined. Obviously set aside after only short stint in commercial channels, this inviting piece will certainly catch the eye of astute bidders. From the Collection of Thaddeus A. Tatum III.
