Very Scarce Date in Mint State

1840 $1 PCGS MS63+ ex: D.L. Hansen

Fantastic mint state example of this scarce issue! Impressively preserved surfaces display flashy luster and only minor signs of contact. The design elements exhibit pinpoint definition throughout. This is the first official year of silver dollar coinage since the hiatus taken after Bust dollars were struck in 1803. PCGS+ grade for premium quality at the top of end of the assigned grade. The Hansen Collection holds one of the four finest known examples for the date, a MS64.

Nice Type Coin

Looks Prooflike!

Civil War Date

1863 $1 PCGS MS61

An underrated Civil war date from a mintage of just 27,200 coins. With the lower mintage and popularity of the issue, it becomes very difficult to find an eye-appealing piece in any grade, let alone uncirculated.

Scarce Civil War Issue

Scarce Civil War issue from a very low mintage of just 30,700 coins struck. Boldly struck with nice underlying luster and pleasing touches of lavender, gold, and silvery-grey throughout.

Choice AU!

1865 $1 PCGS AU58 ex: D.L. Hansen

Lustrous mostly white example with light russet tints along the obverse rims. Slight high-point friction is present, although the coin retains complete detail and the light wear does not impede the eye appeal. Low mintage of 46,500 coins struck. The Hansen Collection holds the finest known example for the date, a MS65.

Gorgeous!

Choice high-end type coin, just shy of gem status! Satiny to near prooflike luster illuminates the fields complimenting the well-struck devices. Lovely eye appeal! CAC approved for quality. PCGS+ grade for premium quality at the top of end of the assigned grade.
