1854 G$1 Type Two MS64 PCGS

Pricing & History
1854 G$1 Type Two MS64 PCGS. The short-lived Type Two gold dollar has long provided a focal point for gold type enthusiasts, who often turn their attention to the Philadelphia issues rather than the more challenging mintmarked dates. While the Type Two 1854 gold dollar is available for a price even in MS64, anything finer is decidedly scarce, and few near-Gems approach the eye appeal of this survivor. Frosty, swirling orange-gold luster enlivens minimally marked surfaces. While the central devices show slight softness of detail, the overall eye appeal is redeeming. PCGS has graded 64 finer pieces (1/10). Grade: 64, Service: PCGS, Service No.: 7531, Issue Date: 1854, Denomination: G$1, Variety: TYPE 2
