1903 LA Purchase Commemorative Gold Dollar (G$1) - Jefferson

The 1903 Louisiana Purchase Exposition Gold Dollar commemorates the centennial of the Louisiana Purchase, an event that dramatically reshaped the United States by doubling its size. Struck in Philadelphia, this gold piece honors Thomas Jefferson and was issued just two years before the grand fair in St. Louis, celebrating the spirit of American expansion and innovation. With a mintage of only 125,000, these coins are a testament to a pivotal moment in U.S. history, sought after for their historical significance and limited issuance.

This particular coin, graded MS64 by PCGS and boasting a coveted CAC sticker, is an exceptional example. The coin radiates with bright golden luster, a testament to its meticulous preservation. Both the obverse and reverse are graced with exceptional detail, showcasing Jefferson's portrait and the bold lettering of the commemorative inscription crisply. The surfaces are remarkably clean, with only minimal, barely noticeable marks that keep it just shy of a higher grade. A superb addition for the discerning collector looking to own a piece of history.
