The obverse, as typically encountered for the issue, is off-center, yet the peripheral legends remain bold and legible even where portions extend toward or slightly beyond the flan, and the iconic oak tree is sharply rendered with well-defined branches and trunk detail. The surfaces display deep silver-gray coloration enlivened by subtle undertones of violet and green-gold, with lingering luster visible in the protected areas that underscores the coin’s solid About Uncirculated preservation. The reverse is particularly well-centered and crisply struck, with the denomination and surrounding pellets clear and evenly impressed, providing an attractive contrast to the more irregular obverse alignment. Overall surface quality is strong for the type, with honest circulation wear confined mainly to the highest points and no distracting impairments, aligning well with the Ford XII description of “Extremely Fine” and explaining PCGS’s slightly higher assessment. At 12.7 grains and attributed as Noe-29, W-240, R.6, this is an important and eye-appealing early American silver issue, further distinguished by its inclusion in the 2010 Guide Book and a notably small CAC population of just 2 approved examples at the grade, with only 4 finer. Aside from a R.6 and pedigreed to the John J Ford collection, it is also traced back to F.C.C Boyd.

Grant’s birth with an original mintage of just 5,000 pieces, is offered here as a beautifully preserved Superb Gem that fully merits its PCGS MS67 grade and CAC approval. Both sides are awash in rich satiny mint luster beneath warm honey-gold color, accented by delicate shades of orange and pale rose that add depth and softness to the overall presentation. The surfaces are exceptionally well preserved, with remarkably smooth fields and an absence of the scattered abrasions so often seen on these compact gold commemoratives, allowing the luster to remain vibrant and uninterrupted across the entire coin. With a CAC Price Guide value of $3,750 and no recent MS67 PCGS CAC sale, this is a premium, top-tier representative ideally suited for an advanced gold commemorative set. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/cert\/53044273\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePCGS Cert Verification #\u003cspan\u003e53044273\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• PCGS Price Guide - $3,250\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS POP - 192\/24\u003cbr\u003e• CAC Price Guide - $3,750\u003cbr\u003e• CAC POP - 89\/0\u003cbr\u003e• PCGS Coin# -\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003ca class=\"underline\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgs.com\/coinfacts\/coin\/detail\/7458\/67\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e7458\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PCGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51856712925496,"sku":"53044273","price":3550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/files\/1922_G_1_GRANT_NO_STARS_MS67_PCGS_CAC.png?v=1784064509"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/3891\/0535\/collections\/patterns-commemoratives-757182-modified.png?v=1727184629","url":"https:\/\/paradimecoins.com\/collections\/colonials-commemoratives-errors-patterns-other-rare-coins-for-sale.oembed","provider":"Paradime Coins","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
