NGC/PCGS MS-64 $1 Liberty Head Gold Coin Type I - Random Year
The United States Mint produced $1 Liberty Head Gold Coins between 1849 and 1854 as the nation’s official circulating dollar coin. Each coin contains .0483 Troy oz of gold and features James Longacre’s design.
The $1 Liberty Head coin featured three distinct designs during its production. The Type I design was only minted for six years before being replaced by the Indian Princess motif. As a result, Type I coins in preserved condition are considered relatively rare and highly collectible.
SD Bullion offers $1 Liberty Head Gold Coins of Type I, graded as MS-64 by either NGC or PCGS, of varied mintage, randomly selected from our inventory at the time of shipping.
