1852 Gold Dollar. MS-65 (PCGS).
A frosty and smooth-looking Gem with pretty golden-wheat color. Sharply struck and showing intricate hair detail on Liberty's portrait. Surpassed by only the 1851 and 1853, the 1852 is one of the most frequently encountered Type I gold dollars in today's market and is a perennial favorite with collectors seeking a single example of this classic 19th century design. However, just 38 coins rank finer than this piece at PCGS, stressing the elusive nature of high grade examples.
