Description

The 1858 (D) Liberty Gold Dollar is a Gold Dollar produced at the Dahlonega Mint as part of the Large Indian Princess Head Gold Dollars 1856-1889 series. With a mintage of 3,477, this is an extremely rare issue — the lowest mintage among 3 mint variants, representing only 3% of total 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. Struck at the Denver Mint, established in 1906 from an earlier assay office that processed Colorado gold rush metal. Estimated market value ranges from $2.6K to $27K 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 #7549.
