1889 Gold Dollar. MS-68 (NGC).

1889 Gold Dollar. MS-68 (NGC).，Breathtakingly beautiful Superb Gem quality for this historic final year issue in the gold dollar series. Billowy satin to softly frosted luster mingles with vivid rose-gold patina to provide outstanding visual appeal. Full striking detail and expertly preserved, virtually pristine surfaces are also praiseworthy attributes for this simply outstanding gold dollar. The 1889 is the final issue of this type, and it was produced at a time when the usefulness of the gold dollar in circulation had long since passed. The mintage is limited at 28,950 circulation strikes, many of which found their way into the hands of contemporary numismatists who had been speculating in low mintage gold dollars since 1879. As a result, there are quite a few high quality survivors of this issue which, when combined with its final year status, has made the 1889 one of the more popular type candidates in the gold dollar series. On the other hand, precious few examples are as close to perfect as the present Superb Gem. If you are assembling a truly stellar quality gold type or date set, your search for an 1889 gold dollar can end here with aggressive bidding.，，
