Sirhc

No Saint, But a Tough N.O. $10 Lib

1852-C Gold Dollar NGC MS64+

Sirhc

You Should See This (Near Gem) C (Mint)

The 1852-C is among the most plentiful Charlotte gold dollar issues despite a mintage of only 9,434 coins. Doug Winters estimates that as many as 350 coins may survive. However, few are in the upper Mint State grades. This Plus-graded near-Gem is conditionally rare, and just a few finer pieces are reported. It is the only MS64 coin at NGC with a Plus designation. This particular example is highly lustrous, displays lovely color and boasts strong overall eye-appeal. Listed in the NGC price guide at $17,500 in MS64 condition and unlisted in MS64+. Only 6 have been graded higher by NGC.

1865 Liberty Double Eagle NGC MS63

Sirhc

Rare, Choice Unc.

The 1865 Liberty twenty claims a nominal mintage of 351,175 pieces. Before the era of recent shipwreck finds, this date was seldom encountered above the VF-XF grade level. Fortunately, 320 examples of the 1865 were recovered from the wreck of the S.S. Republic. Most of the recovered coins were in higher AU- Mint state grades, all the way up to MS65. The one offered here is clean, satiny and quite attractive in its appearance. Listed at $19,400 in the CDN CPG, $24,500 in the NGC price guide and $23,500 in Trends.

1879-S Liberty Double Eagles PCGS MS60

Sirhc

A Half Dozen

From a mintage of 1.2 million pieces, the 1879-S Liberty double eagle was heavily circulated at the time of issue and many examples were used to settle large accounts in foreign trade. Many coins have been repatriated from overseas holdings in recent years, but most examples seen have excessive bag-marks from rough storage and transport. Mint State coins are scarce in today’s market and high-grade examples are rare.

1855 Gold Dollar PCGS MS66

Sirhc

Gem and Then Some

The gold dollar was introduced in 1849, authorized by the same legislation that created the double eagle in the wake of gold discoveries in California. Gold dollars weighed just 1.672 gm and had a diameter of 13 mm, making them even smaller than the three cent silver pieces that would be issued a couple of years later. In 1854, the Mint increased the diameter to 15 mm by thinning the planchet. James B. Longacre redesigned coin to mark the change and adapt the motifs for a thinner planchet. The Type Two design replaced the standard Liberty Head obverse with an Indian Princess bust, and the wreath on the reverse was exchanged for the one designed for the new three dollar gold pieces. However, the new design did not strike up fully on such a thin planchet, and in 1856, the obverse Liberty portrait was replaced with a lower-relief alternative that was similar to the design of the three dollar gold piece.
