1889-CC Morgan Dollar NGC MS63 DPL

Sirhc

After a four-year hiatus, the Carson City Mint was authorized to resume coinage in July 1889, although operations did not commence until October due to repairs that needed to be performed on the building and machinery. Morgan dollar production in the final quarter of the year reached 350,000 coins. Unlike earlier silver dollar issues from this mint that were largely dumped into long-term storage and forgotten, the 1889-CC seems to have been released — at least in part — into circulation. Worn coins are plentiful today, and Mint State pieces are scarce by comparison.
The 1889-CC has long been the condition key of the Carson City Morgans, but its status as one of the key dates of the entire series was established permanently in the 1970s, when no large quantities of this date emerged from the GSA sales. A single GSA coin, sold in the Mixed CC offerings, stood as a glaring reminder of just how challenging high-grade 1889-CC Morgans would continue to be.

This survivor displays more pronounced Cameo contrast on its reverse than its obverse, but the latter is still more heavily frosted than is apparent in our image. The NGC population is 30 with 13 graded higher, none better than MS64. Listed at $75,000 in the CDN CPG and $71,500 in the NGC price guide.

Highly Coveted Saint Issue – NGC MS63 1929 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle

Sirhc

After numerous common date Philadelphia Mint double eagles were issued through 1928, mintages continued at substantial levels in 1929 and beyond. However, beginning in 1929 these pieces were not widely distributed, but rather, were stored in Treasury vaults awaiting their fate in the government melting pots of the mid and late-1930s. In Encyclopedia of U.S. Gold Coins,  Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth wrote: “Beginning with the 1929 double eagle and continuing through the 1933 issue, any collector who undertakes obtaining these issues does so with extreme care and financial fortitude.”
The existing population of these pieces today survives from those few coins obtained by contemporary collectors, or from a small additional number of pieces that have been found in Europe. According to Roger Burdette, the maximum number of 1929 double eagles that could have survived is 1,176 pieces with the estimated survival of only 350 pieces. The NGC population is 28 with 68 graded higher.

Scarce Civil War Issue – 1862 Liberty Double Eagle NGC XF45

Sirhc

The economic stresses and uncertainties of the Civil War resulted in widespread hoarding of all precious metal coinage and the government suspended specie payments in late 1861. These circumstances resulted a drastic reduction of coinage in 1862, and the Philadelphia Mint struck a modest business-strike mintage of only 92,133 double eagles that year. The coins were largely ignored by contemporary collectors and few were saved for numismatic purposes. Unlike some other dates of this period, only a handful of examples have been recovered from shipwreck finds in recent years. Today, the 1862 Liberty double eagle is one of the most elusive issues in the Type One series. The NGC population is 23 with 74 graded higher.

Listed at $18,000 in the CDN CPG and $17,500 (in XF) in the NGC price guide.

1909-S Indian Eagle NGC MS65

Sirhc

In the late 1970s, the discovery of a hoard of about 60 1909-S ten- dollar pieces was sold intact by Ron Gillio to Jim Halperin of New England Rare Coin Galleries. Previously, this issue was virtually impossible to obtain in Uncirculated condition. Since then, a few other small hoards have been found, substantially raising the Mint State population. Despite these discoveries, the ’09-S is still very scarce in Mint State, with most pieces residing in the MS62 to MS64 range. It remains one of the most difficult issues in the entire series to locate as a Gem, and in finer grades. The NGC population is 14 with 6 graded higher.

 Listed at $24,000 in the CDN CPG and $25,000 in the NGC price guide.

Offered at $22,400
