Description
The 1874 Liberty Gold Dollar is a Gold Dollar produced at the Philadelphia Mint as part of the Large Indian Princess Head Gold Dollars 1856-1889 series. The U.S. Mint produced 198,800 examples. 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, while the reverse displays a wreath enclosing the denomination 1 DOLLAR. Designed by James Barton Longacre. Struck in 90% gold, 10% copper, weighing 1.7 grams, 14.3 mm in diameter, with a reeded edge. Cataloged as PCGS #7575. The Large Indian Princess Head Gold Dollar (Type 3) corrected the striking problems of the Type 2 with a larger, higher-relief portrait. The most available of the three gold dollar types. The 1875 (mintage 400) is the key date. Charlotte (C) and Dahlonega (D) mint marks command premiums.
