Mint State 1869 Octagonal Gold Dollar 1869-G Octagonal Dollar. BG-1106. Liberty Head. Plain or Crudely Reeded Edge. Rarity-4. MS-62 NGC. A frosty and lustrous bright yellow gold example of Robert B. Gray & Co.’s (1858-1871) Liberty Head dollar; Gray’s company was successor to Antoine Nouizillet’s firm (1852-1858). Maker’s mark, G, beneath bust. Pale olive iridescence engages the eye immediately on this octagonal Period Two gold dollar. Lightly struck at the centers, typical for the variety. Die State I: “crack, F to O of GOLD, first L, 1 of date, left bow, left stem end and rim; another crack, rim to first A.” A trifle more available than some other gold dollars of the era, BG-1106 is often found in Mint State California Small Denomination or “Cal Gold” type sets.
