G $1 1849 OPEN WREATH PCGS MS66

For a small coin, it offers quite powerful quality and eye appeal.

Its hard to imagine how this coin managed to stay so fine all of its 161 years of existence. both sides have no problems. With a really strong glass you can detect some minor die clashing (typical to the date). The color is a deeper yellow gold. There are NO spots. Miss Liberty and the details are exceptionally struck and do appear boldly. The eye appeal is great!

We do not agree with the PCGS pops for MS66’s. We think there may have been a coin resubmitted a few times. PCGS 12, NGC 3, CAC 1. PCGS has graded only one MS67 (and yes, it is CAC’d). This coin belongs in the finest Type set or Gold Dollar Collection!
