$1 Indian Princess Liberty Head Gold Coin Type II XF - Random Year
The Liberty Head Gold Coin served as the official U.S. dollar coin between 1849 and 1854. Produced by the U.S. Mint, it featured a design by James B. Longacre and contained .0483 troy ounces of gold.
Longacre was responsible for several coin designs, including three distinct variations used on the $1 Liberty Gold Coin. The second version, known as Type II, earned the nickname “Indian Princess” due to the stylized image of Lady Liberty on the obverse. However, the complexity of this design led to production issues and frequent minting errors, resulting in its replacement.
Today, you can acquire $1 Liberty Head Gold Coins of Type II at SD Bullion in Extremely Fine condition, but of varied mintage years, randomly selected from our inventory depending on our availability.

The Design
The obverse showcases Lady Liberty wearing a fanciful feathered headdress. It is engraved with the word “LIBERTY” on the headdress, and “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA” around the bust. The image is inspired by the Venus Accroupie, also known as the Crouching Venus, a sculpture displayed at the Philadelphia Museum at that time.
The reverse displays the coin’s face value and year of issuance surrounded by the “agricultural wheat,” containing cotton, corn, tobacco, and wheat.
