1874 Gold Dollar, MS64 PCGS CAC, Old Green Holder (OGH). A sumptuous, problem-free example of this well-produced date, with splendid prooflike fields on the obverse and near-prooflike on the reverse. The 1873 and 1874 gold dollars were produced in large quantities of the Treasury again releasing gold coins at par for circulation, a situation which had not existed since the Civil War ended it in 1861. But it would be four more years, until 1878, that gold dollars were actually released again, and the large earlier mintages depressed post-1874 production figures for years later (the 1875 gold coins are great rarities). If you look really well under a loupe on this piece at the upper reverse left wreath tip, you’ll see a small interior die break, which is scarcely visible without a loupe (remember, at actual size, it’s smaller than a pencil eraser), does not affect the grade, and in our opinion just increases the coolness factor of this coin. It’s certainly a late-die-state reverse. Certified in an old green-label holder with the CAC green bean to boot. We believe CAC gold coins are among the best numismatic investments to be had in today’s market.
