Pricing & History
1858-D $1 Gold Indian. SEGS graded MS-62. Sharply struck and quite lustrous. Our grade is MS60 with faint hairlines from light cleaning, mainly on the cheek. There were only 3,477 gold dollars minted in Dahlonega in 1858. In addition to quarter and half eagles, the Dahlonega Mint struck gold dollars beginning in 1849. The first style was small in diameter and featured a bust of Liberty wearing a coronet. The size of the gold dollar was increased in 1854, and Liberty`s coronet was replaced by a feathered headdress. Slightly modified for better striking quality in 1856, this third type was minted through the end of production at Dahlonega in 1861. All three types featured a wreath on their reverses and were the work of U. S. Mint Chief Engraver James B. Longacre (1844-69). The `D` mintmark appeared below the bow of the wreath..
