1851 “887” Reeded Humbert $50 NGC XF45

Sirhc

An Eight-Sided Offering

Augustus Humbert was U.S. Assayer in San Francisco and operated his firm under Moffat & Co. as the provisional mint years before the San Francisco mint officially opened. There are two variants of the 1851 887 Thous. reeded edge fifties, differing in the placement of the outer concentric circle on the reverse relative to the rim. In spite of their large size (nicknamed “slugs”), these pieces traded hands frequently in Gold Rush California. They were one of the few forms of gold whose stated value could be trusted. When viewed in hand, the coin is lighter (in hue, not weight!) than seen in our images.

1880 Trade Dollar NGC PR67

Sirhc

Sensationally Superb

No Trade dollars were produced for circulation after 1878, but the Philadelphia Mint continued to strike proofs for collectors until 1884. When collectors and dealers became aware of the proof-only status of the denomination a popular speculation in the proofs sprang up. The increased demand resulted in a record mintage of 1,987 proof Trade dollars in 1880. Although the speculation peaked in March, and subsided after that, the Mint continued to strike proofs throughout the year. Looking and this coin in hand and comparing it to our images, we must say – a picture isn’t always worth 1000 words. In actuality, this example boasts light to medium pink and golden centers encircled by luscious violet and blue-green borders. Said differently, ignore the pictures! No non-CAM/UCAM’s have been graded higher by NGC.

1934-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS67

Sirhc

Tied for Highest Graded

After several years of low mintages and intermittent production, Walking Liberty half dollar production increased dramatically in 1934, and production remained stable until the series ended in 1947. Production at the three mints averaged 2.8 million coins per issue from 1916 to 1933, and 10.6 million from 1934 to 1947. That is one of the reasons that some collectors only seek the latter issues, the so-called “short set” of Walking Liberty half dollars. This one is somewhat lighter in brighter in hand, as compared to our images. The NGC population is just 9 (two of which are NGC Star-designated examples) with none higher.

1869 Seated Liberty Dollar NGC PR66

Sirhc

Scintillating, Silvery and Seated

Notwithstanding the reported mintage of 423,700 1869 Seated Liberty dollars for circulation and 600 proofs, the issue is especially elusive in high grade in either format, especially so in the higher Mint State grades. Apparently most of those coins were either melted at some point or exported to the Orient, which in the end amounts to virtually the same fate. The NGC population is just 11 with 5 higher. Much lighter, brighter and more appealing looking in hand.

1869-S Liberty Double Eagle NGC MS62

Sirhc

Rare “69-S”, but not DDO Cent

The 1869-S twenty dollar is plentiful in Extremely Fine and About Uncirculated grades. However, Mint State examples are scarce through MS62 and rare any finer, most being in the MS60 to MS61 range, the finest condition collectors are likely to encounter of this issue. The NGC population is 17 with 8 higher, three of the latter being MS62+ examples.
