Attractive 1836 Judd-60 Original Gobrecht Dollar Popular Die Alignment I with "Eagle Flying Onward and Upward" 1836 Gobrecht Silver Dollar. Name on Base. Judd-60 Original, Pollock-65. Rarity-1. Silver. Plain Edge. Die Alignment I. Proof-25 (NGC). This is certainly one of the more 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 more unusual grade for an 1836 Judd-60 silver dollar. Although undoubtedly seeing considerable commercial use, and possibly also carried as a pocket piece for some time, moderately heavy wear has not resulted in undue loss of detail to any of the major design elements. All remain boldly outlined to allow full appreciation of this historically significant design, and there is even some sharper definition remaining in the recesses Liberty's portrait and the eagle. Warmly toned in steel and golden-gray, both sides are remarkably smooth in hand in light of how much handling this coin obviously endured. The fleeting nature of this offering should not be overlooked. PCGS# 11225. NGC ID: BLWV. Click here for certification details from NGC. Additional image by NGC Photo Vision. Learn more at NGCcoin.com
