- Highly Desirable 1836 Gobrecht Dollar
Judd-60 Original in Die Alignment I
1836 Gobrecht Silver Dollar. Name on Base. Judd-60 Original, Pollock-65. Rarity-1. Silver. Plain Edge. Die Alignment I. Proof-6 (PCGS).
This is certainly one of the most intriguing and desirable silver dollars of any type or date in this sale. The rarity and significance of the Gobrecht dollar as a type has resulted in strong numismatic prices for examples throughout the grading scale, and it is seldom that the budget minded collector has an opportunity to bid on an attractive coin at a relatively affordable level. This is just such a piece, and it certainly represents a rare and unusual grade for an 1836 Judd-60 silver dollar. Undoubtedly carried as a pocket piece for many years, heavy wear has resulted in isolated softness throughout the reverse, although the obverse has a bold date and full outlining to Liberty's portrait. A minor rim ding at 7 o'clock on the latter side is noted, as are wispy scratches on the reverse, but all of these features are easily forgiven in light of how much handling this coin obviously endured. Warmly and originally toned, the fleeting nature of this offering should not be overlooked.
PCGS# 11225.
