1855-D. PCGS. AU-53.$46,950.00One of the rarest of all gold dollars with a mintage of just 1,811. This is also the only Dahlonega Mint Type Two gold dollar.

1856-D. PCGS. AU-50.$10,750.00One of the great rarities in the gold dollar series with a mintage of just 1,460 coins. Most known examples are poorly struck with surface problems. This example is much nicer than most we've seen with sharp detail and pleasing surfaces that display ample yellow-gold luster.
Item #242745 (14 / 43)
1859-S. PCGS. AU-53.$1,750.00CAC. A scarce date that saw a mintage of just 15,000 and was heavily circulated. This is a premium yellow-gold example with lustrous surfaces and plenty of eye appeal.

MS-62.$10,995.00Akers called this "the rarest Philadelphia Mint gold dollar of the 1860's and also the rarest gold dollar in Unc. after 1861... more difficult to obtain in full mint state than the highly regarded 1875."

It is pedigreed to the Harry Bass Jr. collection which was one of the most complete U.S. gold collections ever assembled.
