$1 Indian Princess Liberty Head Gold Coin Type III BU – Random Year

$1 Liberty Head Gold Coin Type III BU – Random Year The Liberty Head Gold Coin, struck from 1849 to 1889, captures the craftsmanship and essence of 19th-century America.  It served as the official U.S. dollar coin from 1849 to 1854, featuring a design by James B. Longacre and containing .0483 troy ounces of gold.  Longacre’s third design for the Gold $1, known as the Indian Princess, was an update to his earlier Type II. The intricate design of the Type II led to minting errors, prompting Longacre to create a new, more refined depiction of Lady Liberty for the Type III version.
