Owner Comments:

An annular pattern with a large central perforation, which would have allowed a larger diameter gold dollar. The annular format limits the devices to a wreath and scrollwork. Gold dollars were vital to commerce in 1852, since silver coins were worth more than face value and did not circulate. Struck in copper with a plain edge. Attractively toned in cherry-red and apple-green. Flawless aside from light mint-made roller marks on the reverse near 4 o'clock. CAC stickered.
