Description

1872 Round $1. BG-1207. Rarity-4. Indian Head. MS-63 (PCGS).

Vivid olive-orange surfaces are sharply struck in most areas with intense reflectivity in the fields. This variety by Christopher (Christoph) Ferdinand Mohrig was discovered either by David U. Proskey or John W. Scott and first published in the March 1884 edition of The Coin Collector's Journal. Examples are known with both coin and medallic die alignments; on the present piece, the reverse is rotated approximately 45 degrees clockwise from coin alignment.

PCGS# 10952. NGC ID: 2C46.

From the Oregon Collection.
