1889 G$1

Description

1889 Gold Dollar, NGC MS-64. This 1889 Gold Dollar represents a classic example of the popular Type III gold dollar coinage that circulated during the final years of the nineteenth century. The Gold Dollar series, produced from 1836 through 1889, holds significant appeal among collectors of United States coinage, with the 1889 date marking one of the later and more obtainable issues in the series. Graded MS-64 by NGC (Certification #2179754002), this specimen displays the attractive luster and eye appeal characteristic of Mint State examples. The grade indicates a well-preserved coin with light contact marks consistent with careful handling, yet retaining the original mint bloom that distinguishes uncirculated pieces from their circulated counterparts. Gold dollars of this era are increasingly popular with collectors seeking affordable entry points into Pre-1933 United States gold coinage. The 1889 Gold Dollar remains a desirable date for type collectors and series enthusiasts alike, offering both historical significance and numismatic merit in a compact, elegant format.
