1903 Gold $1.00 Louisiana Purchase McKinley MS-67+ NGC CAC
In 1903, the Philadelphia Mint produced a special gold dollar coin to commemorate the Louisiana Purchase. This issue features a portrait of William McKinley on the obverse, rendered in 90 percent pure gold. Despite a low mintage of only 17,500 pieces, a few specimens survived the decades in spectacular condition. This specific coin has achieved an exceptional grade of Mint State 67+ (MS-67+). It represents a superb example of early twentieth-century American commemorative coinage, displaying the delicate details of the original engraving. The inscriptions on the coin record the historic milestone, noting the Louisiana Purchase and the key dates of 1803 to 1903.
