1849-D Gold Dollar. Winter 1-A. AU Details--Cleaned (CACG).

1849-D Gold Dollar. Winter 1-A. AU Details--Cleaned (CACG). Extremely popular for mintmarked type purposes, the 1849-D is the first gold dollar produced at the Dahlonega Mint. 21,588 examples were struck, which proved to be the highest gold dollar mintage from this coinage facility, with the result that the 1849-D is the most frequently encountered Dahlonega Mint gold dollar. Writing in the 2023 edition of his standard reference Gold Coins of the Dahlonega Mint: 1838-1861, Doug Winter provides for 650 to 750 or more survivors in all grades. The majority are concentrated at the EF and AU levels. The prevalence of About Uncirculated coins suggests that many examples were saved as souvenirs by the contemporary public. If true, this is certainly an unusual occurrence for a pre-Civil War era Southern gold coin. This mintage was achieved using two die pairings that combine a single obverse with two reverse dies. The Winter 1-A variety is believed to have produced between 1,622 and 6,593 examples during July 1849 - the first Dahlonega Mint gold dollars. The Winter 1-B variety accounts for the remaining 14,995 to 19,966 examples coined from late July/early August through the end of the year. Further supporting the theory that many 1849-D gold dollars were saved as first-year souvenirs, Winter 1-A examples are more common among survivors than Winter 1-B despite having a significantly lower mintage.
