This tough San Francisco date is a popular coin that is very difficult to find in Gem grades. Only a small number are known in the MS66 levels or higher, and the situation is really no different for PLs and DMPLs, which are rare, with very few survivors in the MS65 levels.
Obverse Description
Portrait of Liberty centered. On the left are found 7 stars with the words E*PLURIBUS*UNUM followed by 6 stars on the right. The date is positioned at the bottom.
Reverse Description
The heraldic eagle is centered holding a bunch of arrows and branch surrounded by and olive leaves. The words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * ONE DOLLAR frame the periphery. Mint mark, if any, appears above the letters DO of DOLLAR.
