Gold Dollars
1855-O G$1 MS61 NGC. Variety 1. The only New Orleans Mint gold dollar of the Type Two design, the 1855-O is highly popular with type collectors. This lovely piece has light green-gold luster with frosty surfaces. The strike is sharp, although the 8 is a trifle weak as usual. Here is an attractive and rare gold dollar. Census: 25 in 61, 35 finer (12/16).
Ex: Houston Signature (Heritage, 12/2010), lot 4256.
