Elusive 1895-O Morgan Dollar NGC MS61

Sirhc

Silver dollar production declined drastically at all U.S. mints in the mid-1890s. Following the Panic of 1893 and the repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act there was no commercial demand for the coins and no official mandate to produce them. Accordingly, the New Orleans Mint struck a small mintage of just 450,000 Morgan dollars that year. Unfortunately, the issue was not well-produced and many examples seen have weak strike characteristics and subdued mint luster. Most of the mintage circulated widely near the time of issue and the 1895-O was not well-represented in the Treasury releases of the 1960s. As a result, the 1895-O can be located in circulated grades without much difficulty today, but it is the third rarest Morgan dollar in Mint State grades behind the elusive 1892-S and the famous key 1893-S. The one offered here is lightly toned, lustrous and closer in appearance to our non-slab images than our slab-shot.

 The NGC population is 60 with 54 graded higher.

1929 $20 Saint Gaudens – PCGS MS64

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 current PCGS population is 88 with 44 graded higher.

Just 6 Graded Higher- 1910-S Indian Eagle NGC MS64

Sirhc

The 1910-S Indian eagle’s high mintage of 811,000 coins is deceiving. The date’s availability was drastically reduced in the mid-1930s during the massive gold melts. Mint State survivors are seldom available and typically grade only in the MS62 and lower range. The date is scarce in MS63, and rare any finer. The NGC population is just 21 with 6 graded higher.  The one offered here exhibits rich orange-gold color and a pleasing overall appearance.

Just 2 Graded Higher – 1913 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle

Sirhc

A relatively modest business-strike mintage of 168,838 Saint-Gaudens double eagles was accomplished at the Philadelphia Mint in 1913. The coins were produced in nine deliveries, spaced throughout the year. Most of the coins were sent to European and Latin American destinations, and Roger W. Burdette estimates about 5,000 examples have been repatriated from overseas sources in recent times. Most examples seen are in lower Mint State grades, with the expected number of bagmarks from rough storage and transport. The 1913 Saint-Gaudens double eagle is a rare issue at the MS65 grade level, and finer coins are virtually unobtainable.

The NGC population is 22 with 2 graded higher.
