1879 $4 Flowing Hair, Judd-1635, Pollock-1832, 1833, R.3, 6, PR55 PCGS. The "stella," or four dollar gold piece, technically a pattern issue, has been elevated by its own popularity to inclusion among regularly issued coins, much like the 1836 Gobrecht Dollar, or the 1856 Flying Eagle Cent. The specimen offered here is very nicely detailed throughout, with a few wispy hairlines in the fields on each side. Three or four trivial blemishes reside on the upper reverse, and there is a mere hint of wear on Liberty's temple. Both sides exhibit a pleasing greenish-gold tint. Overall, this lightly circulated piece represents a very pleasing example of this immensely popular gold pattern. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
