Gobrecht Dollars
1836 P$1 Name on Base, Judd-60 Original, Pollock-65, R.1, PR63 NGC. Ex: Share. Silver. Plain Edge. Die Alignment I (center of Liberty's head is opposite the O in DOLLAR). Die State D, clearly showing the diagonal clash mark above the eagle's wing, but lacking the rim nick above the A in STATES and die chip in the dentils below the R in DOLLAR seen on Die State E. The diagonal die clash mark is a clear indicator that this was among the final Gobrecht dollars struck in the last week of 1836. As always seen on 1836 Originals, the fields are more prooflike than proof. Tradition plays a strong role in the designation of Gobrecht dollars, the proof designation being one example, listing these pieces by Judd number being another. The surfaces are deeply toned in multiple layers of gray, blue, and pale rose toning. Light hairlines can be seen beneath the toning, these accounting for the technical grade of the piece.
From The Siegel Collection.
