Lot Title: 1922 'with star' Grant commemorative gold dollar, PCGS MS-64
Description: The strike imparted upon this scarcer variant of the Grant commemorative gold dollar is a bit above average in your cataloger's experience. Rich, evenly distributed original gold color complements the good luster with pleasing effect. Part of the legendary numismatic appeal offered by this issue pertains to the fact that dealer B. Max Mehl stepped up to ensure all 5,000 coins minted were actually purchased, and collectors are in debt to his efforts to preserve high-grade examples, such as that offered here.
Low Estimate: $2,100.00

1922 Grant w/ Star PCGS MS-65.
Satin-fresh and attractive, the color shows nice, even medium-gold distribution except for a subtle orange accent near Grant's temple. A couple of purely trivial contact points in the obverse left...

1079The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,450.00
1922 Grant w/ Star. PCGS MS-64.
No deficiencies are immediately obvious, but the luster lacks pizzazz and seems somewhat flat. A touch of hazy texture can be seen at the back of Grant's neck. Someone's hair annoyingly rests on...
1080The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$2,300.00
1922 Grant w/ Star. NGC MS-66.

1922 Grant w/ Star. NGC MS-66.
At the given grade, this is an interesting coin to say the least. The right side of the reverse features an unexpectedly strong die-crack at 2:00 but inspection of this nice feature quickly leads to...

969The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$2,400.00
1922 Grant w/ Star. PCGS MS-66.

1922 Grant w/ Star. PCGS MS-65.
In the commemorative half-dollar series, the "Grant, with star" is a great rarity, so created by intent in order to promote interest. That is not so with the gold dollar, for which the "with star"...

1922 Grant w/ Star. PCGS MS-65.
A stellar gem that suffers no prominent marks or hairlines at all, with the only trivial distraction being a smallish area of carbon at the precise center of the reverse. Just the barest hint...
1095The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$2,800.00
1922 Grant w/ Star. PCGS MS-66.
The survival rate for the "Grant with star" was actually quite high, and indeed, PCGS has certified 121 higher graded coins (NGC curiously only 73), but that in no way disparages the quality of any...

1922 'with star' Grant commemorative gold dollar, PCGS MS-64
Tasteful rouge color blushes across some of the exposed areas of the obverse fields and touches the central devices on the reverse. Adequately struck and prominently filled with luster, as befits the...

1922 'with star' Grant commemorative gold dollar, NGC MS-65
