1852-D Gold Dollar. Winter 4-E, the only known dies. AU-50 (PCGS). Bold honey color with a subtle mingling of deep golden-orange. While the quality of strike varies considerably for this issue, the offered coin is one of the better produced that the collector is likely to find. The detail is quite sharp overall with the only mentionable softness confined to the central obverse high point. Traces of soft satiny luster remain to surfaces that exhibit a bit of light build up at the left reverse periphery, but are surprisingly free of significant marks for a lightly circulated Dahlonega Mint gold coin.<p>Although only a single die pairing is known for this issue, Doug Winter (2013) reports at least four or five die states. The offered coin exhibits peripheral die cracks extending toward the centers from 9:30 on the obverse, 2, 5 and 11 oclock on the reverse. PCGS# 7519. NGC ID: 25BS.
