That's a stunner. It's pretty unusual to see them so well preserved and with so much luster remaining.
Nice! What a shiny illustrious thing you have there. The price doesn't surprise me given the quality. 1854 - Franklin Pierce was president and no one served as Vice President. Opponents of the Anti-slavery the Kansas-Nebraska Act formed the Republican Party in Ripon WI (though a few other towns claim the birthplace of the party, too).
It was my first ever Liberty gold dollar, I already got a MS-66 1888 Indian Princess from Stacks last year. Still need type 2 gold dollar. Also like to get some from New Orleans/ Charlotte/ mints
You're certainly not holding back, type two dollars and anything from Charlotte or Dahlinega are tough coins. New Orleans isn't so bad.
Hell I live an hour from Ripon WI and I never knew that lol. And I find it amazing how for a dollar coin, how small it is.
