<strong>Obv:</strong> The Flowing Hair design by Charles E. Barber. Head of Liberty with flowing hair faces left with the date 1879 below. Liberty is wearing a coronet inscribed LIBERTY, and the inscription * 6 * G * .3 * S * .7 * C * 7 * G * R * A * M * S * encircles the border. <strong>Rev:</strong> Five-pointed star, or Stella, is inscribed with the denominations ONE STELLA and 400 CENTS. The Latin mottoes E PLURIBUS UNUM and DEO EST GLORIA are above and below the star, respectively. The legend UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is inscribed along the upper border, and another expression of the denomination FOUR DOL. is inscribed along the lower border. A handsome and desirable example of this iconic rarity among U.S. gold coinage. The surfaces boast bright golden-wheat coloration with blushes of pale rose tinting to the high points of Liberty's portrait. The fields remain notably reflective, the design elements bold in most areas with only light rub. Wispy hairlines further confirm light collector handling, but we see no marks that are worthy of individual attention. All Stellas are trophy coins, and this one would serve nicely in many advanced collection.
