Popular Proof 1836 Gobrecht Dollar
Judd-60 “Original” 1836 Pattern Gobrecht Dollar. Judd-60, Pollock-65. Silver. Name on Base. Plain Edge. Die Alignment I. Proof-62 NGC. A beautiful coin that proves not all examples at a given grade are comparable in overall quality – as is this first-glance Proof-64 to our eyes. The medium steel-gray surfaces exhibit modest reflectivity, along with a pleasing display of rich neon-blue, gold, and silver iridescence that springs to the fore under a bright light. And if you are wondering, it takes a loupe to find a mark of any stature on the attractive surfaces. The strike is crisp, particularly in the reverse eagle that flies “onward and upward” in a starry field when the coin is turned on its horizontal axis.
From a mintage of 1,000 coins of the type struck in December, 1836 for intended circulation. Choice for the grade; if polled, many collectors would rather own an appealing and evenly toned Proof-62 with no appreciative naked-eye marks such as the present piece, than they would a dipped or recolored Proof-62 or better specimen like some of the certified coins available in today’s numismatic marketplace. We’ll take our chances with this one, thank you, and you should too!
