1793 Vine and Bars Wreath Cent PCGS/CAC AU55

Sirhc

A “Gemmy” AU From 93

The Mint’s second attempt at a design for the large cent was Adam Eckfeldt’s Wreath type. The obverse is not unlike that of the 1793 Chain cent, although Liberty’s portrait is more refined and a beaded border has been added. The reverse depicts the same statutory inscriptions as the Chain cent, although a wreath has replaced the chain as the central device. Breen believes that curious citizens saved a limited number of Wreath cents as novelties, but the extant population is probably no more than 6-7% of the 63,353 pieces produced. The one offered here is as pleasing as you’re likely to find, regardless of grade.

1928-S Peace Dollar PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Rare Gem

Although the 1928 Peace dollar is the low-mintage key date of the series, the 1928-S is a much more significant condition key. In MS65, the San Francisco issue is many times rarer than its Philadelphia counterpart, despite having a mintage that exceeds 1.6 million coins. Only 5 have been graded higher by PCGS with 4 of them being MS65+ examples. The one offered here is lustrous and lightly toned, with a pleasing overall appearance.

1915-S Pan Pac $50 (Round) NGC MS65+

Sirhc

Large Round

The Panama-Pacific Exposition was authorized to sell up to 1,500 examples each of both the Round and Octagonal versions of the Pan-Pac fifties, and the Mint struck 1510 examples of the Round version, including 10 examples for the Assay Commission. Unfortunately, the high cost of the coins ($100 per coin) discouraged all but the most dedicated collectors, and only 483 specimens of the Round design were sold. The remaining 1,017 coins were melted after the close of the exposition. These rare gold commemoratives are avidly sought-after in today’s market. If you’ve never held one of these massive and extremely impressive coins, you owe it to yourself to do so. In hand, this coin’s color is more yellow/less orange than seen in our images.

1909 Indian Eagle PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Pleasing to the Eye

Among Indian eagles from the Philadelphia Mint, the 1909 issue is one of the most challenging to locate in high grade. From a business-strike mintage of 184,789 pieces, most of the coins were either released into circulation, where they suffered the usual wear and attrition, or were held in government storage until they were melted in the 1930s. Today, the 1909 Indian ten dollar is rare in MS65 condition, and finer coins are even more elusive. The PCGS population report is 18 with 15 higher.

1908 No Motto Indian Eagle PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Satiny Gem

The design of the Indian eagle was modified to include the motto IN GOD WE TRUST in 1908. The Philadelphia Mint only produced 33,500 No Motto ten dollar gold pieces before switching to the new type. Despite the limited production figure, the 1908 No Motto is not too difficult to locate in lower Uncirculated grades, but examples in MS65 condition are rare.
