Pedigree: Gold Coast Collection (2022) Garrett and Guth in their "Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins" mention, "The 1861 gold dollar is also very desirable as an example of Civil-War-era coinage. Most examples seen of this date are well struck but sometimes come from very heavily clashed dies. Occasionally, it is possible to distinguish a full outline and even parts of the word LIBERTY on the reverse." The coin listed here was not struck with clashed dies and has the standard reverse die alignment.

Very Rare Doubled Date. 2/24/2023 Research Update: 637 individual serial numbers (PCGS, NGC, ANACS, IGC) have now been reviewed with only 3 confirmed examples of the Double Date variety. The coin here has a significantly higher grade than the other two confirmed examples (ANACS XF40 and AU58). Two other examples (XF45 and AU55) have yet to be confirmed. ANACS lists the variety whereas PCGS and NGC do not. ANACS only lists 4 known graded pieces (1 ea, XF40, XF45, AU55 and AU58) of which I have located 2 photos, the AU58 and the XF40. The third photo is that shown above, an MS64. ANACS was not able to furnish the serial numbers of the other two pieces. The data I have is on an Excel spreadsheet and duplicate serial numbers have been removed so that the photos I examined are discrete entities. There is, however, still the possibility of duplicate coins due to resubmissions, although I believe the number is small in comparison to the aggregate total. Damaged, detail, and coins with blurry photos or without serial numbers have been excluded from my research. I also found a total of nine Double Die Obverse coins (two of which were not identified as such). 44 DDO coins are currently listed on the PCGS, NGC and ANACS websites. Q.David Bowers' "A Guide Book of Gold Dollars" and Garrett and Guth's "Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins 1795-1933", make reference to the Doubled Date and the Double Die Obverse as interesting varieties, yet nothing beyond the fact that they exist. "Walter Breens' Complete Encyclopedia Of U.S. And Colonial Coins" states the coin is, "Very rare. Date first punched too high, then corrected lower." Pedigree; Maurice Storck Collection.
