1849-D G$1 MS62 PCGS. Variety 1-B. This first-year iss
<B>1849-D G$1 MS62 PCGS.</B></I> Variety 1-B. This first-year issue was apparently saved in considerable numbers, making it generally available in the lower Mint State grades. The Reverse B of 1849, known without die cracks and with extensive cracks, as here, was produced to solve the blurry reverse problem created by the Reverse A die. A die crack runs through the mintmark, connecting both bow ribbons and into the right field. Another crosses from the rim at 8 o'clock through the N in UNITED and an olive berry, onward to the center and from the left wreath tip through ATES and to the rim. Brilliant luster radiates from the yellow-gold surfaces. A small planchet flake shows on the reverse below the date, along with light, grade-consistent abrasions and field scuffs.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Coins & Currency (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
