Rare 1925-D Saint Gaudens Double Eagle NGC MS64

Although a large number of 1925-D’s were coined, most were put into storage and later melted. Research by Roger Burdette suggests that most of the surviving coins — about 1,000 pieces, per latest estimates — are from European hoards. As is typical for Saint-Gaudens double eagles supplied by overseas hoards, the population of Mint State 1925-D coins is fairly dispersed throughout the MS60 to MS64 grade range, but finer pieces are very rare. The NGC population is 87 with 13 graded higher.

Rare 1885-CC Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU55

The Carson City Mint saw double eagle production dwindle to just 9,450 pieces in 1885, down from 81,139 coins in 1884. That represented an 88% decline in the number of twenty-dollar gold pieces put out from one year to the next. This would also be the last year coins were struck in Nevada until 1889. The 1885-CC double eagle boasts a surviving population of a few hundred coins, perhaps 400 or so pieces by Rusty Goe’s estimate. The NGC population is 57 with 79 graded higher.

None Graded Higher – 1942 Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS68

The 1942 Walking Liberty half dollar, struck during the midst of World War II to the extent of more than 47 million pieces, is a common coin which can be found in circulated condition in bags of 90% silver to this day. That said, this issue is far from common in this exceptional state of preservation. The NGC population is just 13 with none graded higher. This one is delicately toned and pristine in its appearance.

1865-S (“Brother Jonathan”) Liberty Double Eagle NGC MS63

Listed at $16,800 in the CDN CPG and $20,000 in the NGC price guide.

Overloaded with heavy equipment plus more than 240 passengers and crew, the S.S. Brother Jonathan sank on July 30, 1865 off the coast of California near Crescent City, when it hit an uncharted rock in a fierce gale and heavy seas. A single lifeboat saved 11 crew members, plus five women and three children in California’s greatest maritime disaster. Also lost was a treasure of freshly minted gold coin intended as payments to government troops and Indian tribes.
Reportedly only 20% of the gold treasure was recovered in 1996 salvage operations, including 1,207 gold coins — primarily double eagles. More than 500 of those pieces were dated 1865-S, in conditions ranging from AU to MS66.

1872 Indian Cent PCGS MS65RD

The 1872 Indian cent claims a mintage of just over 4 million pieces. Many examples were struck from planchets made from re-melted coins of earlier years and the quality of these blanks was uneven. Many examples show streaks due to improper alloy mix and the issue is often seen with a weak strike. Richard Snow believes the 1872 is the most difficult issue of the series to find in high grade, outside of the famous 1877.

The PCGS population is 17 with 6 graded higher, 4 of the latter being MS65+ examples.

Listed at $16,200 in the CDN CPG and $16,000 in the PCGS price guide.
