What is a 1878-P Gold Dollar?

The 1878-P Proof Gold Dollar is a gold coin that was minted at the Philadelphia mint. It has a legal tender value of $1.00. As a "Proof" coin, it was minted in a limited quantity, which makes it generally more rare than "business strike" or "mint strike" coins which are intended for circulation. With such a low mintage of only 20, there are likely few of these items available for purchase or at auction in a year. This coin contains a relatively small amount of gold at 1.50524 grams (0.05 oz. Adjusted Gold Weight).
