The 1843, 1845, and 1847 No Motto half eagles are more available than the 1844, the latter significantly so. However, this Philadelphia issue remains one of the more collectible entries from the early part of the series. It claims a mintage of 340,330 coins, possibly 30 to 40 of which survive in Mint State. The one offered here features pleasing orange-gold color.

The NGC population is only 2 with none graded higher.

Listed at $19,400 in the CDN CPG and $18,500 in the NGC price guide.

Scarce 1882-CC Liberty Half Eagle PCGS MS61

dyann

The 1882-CC Liberty half eagle enjoyed a substantial mintage (in the context of the series) of 82,817 pieces. The issue circulated heavily in the regional economy at the time of issue and few high-quality examples were saved by contemporary collectors. Accordingly, the 1882-CC is not difficult to locate in circulated grades, but it is scarce in MS61 condition, and finer coins are prime condition rarities.

The PCGS population is 22 with 13 graded higher.

Listed at $20,000 in the PCGS price guide.

Offered at $15,800

Just 1 Graded Higher – 1859 Liberty Double Eagle NGC MS61

dyann

A low-mintage issue with a production of only 43,517 coins, the 1859 double eagle is a scarce issue that emerges as an important condition rarity in Mint State grades. Only 13 pieces are NGC and PCGS-graded MS60 or finer, and none have been examined at either grading service above MS62 (3/23). The 1859 has the lowest combined NGC and PCGS Mint State population of any Type One double eagle from the Philadelphia Mint aside from the 1861 Paquet rarity, and it boasts the 12th lowest Mint State population of all Type One double eagles. This lustrous orange-gold example shows grade-limiting marks but features a solid strike and excellent eye appeal. Rarely did an important collection from generations ago have a Mint State example of the 1859 double eagle. The NGC population is a mere 4 with 1 (MS62 example) graded higher.

Listed at $50,400 in the CDN CPG and $42,500 in the NGC price guide.

Tied for Highest Graded – 1877 Seated Liberty Quarter NGC MS68

dyann

The 1877 Seated Liberty quarter comes from a high mintage of more than 10.9 million coins and is generally plentiful through MS65, with finer pieces being only moderately scarce through MS67. However, this MS68 color-free blazer of a coin is a condition rarity. It represents the finest grade achieved at either certification service and is one of only 13 coins this fine at NGC and PCGS combined. The NGC population is 9 with none graded higher.

Listed at $18,000 in the CDN CPG and $16,000 in the NGC price guide.

Tied for Highest Graded – 1873 DDO Closed 3 Indian Cent NGC MS64BN CAC

dyann

This, the FS-101, is the more desirable of the two major 1873 cent doubled die varieties. It is readily identifiable by bold obverse doubling on the letters in LIBERTY, Liberty’s eye and profile, and the feather stems. This variety was first reported in 1957, and, while examples have been discovered since, less than 20 examples (per Rick Snow) are known in Mint State. The NGC population is just 7 with none graded higher.

Unlisted in the NGC price guide, but listed at $16,100 in the PCGS price guide.

Offered at $13,100
