Description

The 1868 Liberty Gold Dollar is a Gold Dollar minted at the Philadelphia Mint, within the Large Indian Princess Head Gold Dollars 1856-1889 series. With a mintage of 10,500, this is a scarce issue — the higher-mintage of the two mint variants, representing 100% 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. Modest Reconstruction-era production at Philadelphia. Philadelphia's mint — the nation's first — has produced coins without interruption since its founding in 1792. Estimated market value ranges from $697 to $2.6K 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 #7567.
