HK-485, 1939 GGIE Treasure Island Dollar, NGC AU-58, Scarce

$949.00

HK-485, SH 23-3, 1939 Golden Gate International Exposition Treasure Island or "Piece of Eight" Dollar.  Once considered perhaps the rarest 20th Century issue (other than others not then known to the authors) listed in the original Hibler & Kappen first edition, when perhaps a dozen were known of.  More have emerged since however certainly not common by any means, and a true rarity in Uncirculated grades.  Certified NGC AU-58, eight in the grade plus some at PCGS, 11 better at NGC. These never really "circulated" as most were never sold, but acquired what wear might exist during storage.  Many have relatively poor Silver-plating that was easily bruised, and many tarnished badly - this is better than most.  Valued in Shevlin at $1,200 AU-50, $1,500+ in Unc.
