1853 NGC AU-58 Type I Gold Dollar Coin

The Type I Gold Dollar Coin from 1853 holds significant numismatic value.

The US Mint first struck them in 1849 with a gold content of .04837 oz, designed for regular circulation with legal tender status and a one-dollar denomination.

The production of the Type I Gold Dollar continued until 1854.

Many Type I Gold Dollar coins were lost during the economic collapse of the 1930s, similar to other Pre-1933 Gold Coins. Due to rising gold prices, these coins were hoarded and melted, enhancing their historical and numismatic value.

Today, SD Bullion offers the 1853 NGC AU-58 Type I Gold Dollar Coin, encapsulated and graded as AU-58 by NGC.

The Design

On the obverse, the Type I design features Lady Liberty in profile, wearing a coronet inscribed “LIBERTY,” surrounded by thirteen stars representing the original colonies.

The reverse showcases a simple wreath encircling the denomination "1 DOLLAR" and the year of minting, 1853. Surrounding the design are the words “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.”

A NGC AU-58 Coin

NGC (Numismatic Guaranty Corporation) is a leading third-party coin grading company, using a precise grading scale to assess coin condition.

AU stands for About Uncirculated, indicating a coin with slight wear on the highest points but still retaining much of its original luster and detail.

The coins in this listing have been graded AU-58 by NGC and come in protective plastic slabs. These slabs may show light wear, but this does not affect the coin's grade or value.
