1851-C NGC MS-60. 1851-C NGC MS-60.
Lot Title: 1851-C NGC MS-60.
Description: MS-60 as a grade needs to come back into vogue, as it ideally represents a coin like this -- one that truly shows no actual wear, but whose luster are may be a little dull. Of course, this being Charlotte gold, one has to expect production deficiencies that include a little loss of detail at Liberty's nose due to excessive die-polish. On the other hand, all other details are unexpectedly sharp -- very sharp in fact, considering the completely separated fine strands of hair and sharp definition within the wreath. At MS-60, 1851-C is certainly the most available type-1 gold dollar for Charlotte, and undoubtedly the most available overall for that mint. (PCGS# 007514)
