Description
A Gold Dollar from the San Francisco Mint, the 1858 (S) Liberty Gold Dollar belongs to the Large Indian Princess Head Gold Dollars 1856-1889 series. With a mintage of 10,000, this is a scarce issue — ranked 2nd of 3 mint variants by mintage, with 8% of production. The obverse features a female figure wearing a feathered headdress, representing Liberty in the guise of a Native American princess with a larger, more detailed head design and the reverse displays a wreath enclosing the denomination 1 DOLLAR. Four-mint production continued. The 1858-D is a scarce Dahlonega issue. The San Francisco Mint, a Gold Rush-era institution, now specializes in proof and collector coinage. Estimated market value ranges from $669 to $19K depending on grade and condition. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 1.7 grams, 14.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #7550.
