These coins are viewed by many as an excellent safe haven and hedge against inflation and stock market volatility. These items trade at their metal basis (melt) value plus a numismatic premium, based on their condition, historical significance, supply and popularity.

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.

Just 2 Graded Higher – 1913 Indian Half Eagle PCGS MS65+

dyann

The 1913 half eagle is usually glossed over in references and discussions on Indian Head gold. With a mintage of more than 915,000 coins, the date is plentiful in most grades and is only considered scarce in Gem condition. But perhaps that is a mistake. The date may be plentiful, but it is often fully struck and lustrous — the perfect type coin. It is also underappreciated in the top grade — not MS65, but MS66.

The PCGS population is only 5 with 2 graded higher.

1839 Type of 1840 Liberty Eagle PCGS XF45

Sirhc

In his 1998 sale of the John Jay Pittman Collection, Part II, David Akers presented the following remarks on the 1839 Head of 1840 eagle: “The 1839 Type of 1840 issue is one of the greatest rarities among all Liberty Head eagles, especially in high grade. It is also far more rare that the 1839 Type of 1838 or even the 1838, both of which have traditionally been more highly prized due to their type coin status.” Today, only 50 to 60 examples are believed extant, with just three or four in Mint State. The example offered here is noticeably lighter and more lustrous than seen in our images. The PCGS population is 5 with 16 graded higher.

1908 Indian Half Eagle NGC PR64

Sirhc

First Year Matte Proof

The innovative, incuse Indian design by Bela Lyon Pratt was introduced on the quarter eagle and half eagle in 1908. The Philadelphia Mint found it impossible to polish the dies for the new designs to produce the old brilliant finish used on proofs of earlier years, so a new sandblast finish was adopted. The coins were struck from specially prepared dies and subjected to sandblasting with a coarse grain of sand, while being held with a glove. The sandblast finish gave the coins an artistic medallic appearance, but contemporary collectors preferred the old brilliant proofs and orders for proof sets were anemic. The Mint produced 500 examples of the new gold proofs in 1908, but only 167 were distributed. The remaining coins went unsold and were melted after the close of the year. Of course, present-day numismatists appreciate the sandblast proofs for their artistic quality and elusive nature.

1929 Indian Half Eagle PCGS MS65

Sirhc

None Graded Higher

Only the Philadelphia Mint coined gold in 1929, and production was focused on the double eagle denomination. The 1929 half eagle is, in terms of total population, the rarest Indian Head five in the series. Several hundred pieces survive, primarily in Mint State, since this issue never circulated. However, the PCGS population report shows only 12 at this grade level with NONE HIGHER. Nor has NGC graded any higher, either. In other words, an MS65 is as good as it gets for this date. This one is lustrous and attractive.

1929 Indian Half Eagle PCGS MS64

Sirhc

Last Year-Of-Issue Rarity

The Indian Head half eagle series was short-lived. Yet, it comprised a number of highly elusive dates, none more so than the 1929. Although the 1909-O is perhaps more recognizable to the uninitiated thanks to its low mintage of 34,200 coins, the 1929 is rarer in the absolute sense with a survival rate approximately 50% lower than its New Orleans counterpart. The Mint struck 662,000 five-dollar gold pieces that year, but nearly the entire mintage was held in reserve and eventually melted after the Gold Recall of 1933. Coins that avoided the melting pot are apt to be found in AU to Uncirculated condition, generally MS61 to MS63.

1852 Small Head Wass, Molitor & Co. $5 NGC VF30

Sirhc

A “Small Head”

Wass, Molitor & Co. was one of the best-respected assaying and coining firms in San Francisco during the early years of the California Gold Rush. These gold pieces were welcome sights in circulation at a time when coinage was sorely lacking. This is an example of the rare 1852 Small Head variety modeled after the federal half eagle. Differences are most notable on the coronet (“W.M. & Co.”) and reverse legend. The NGC population report shows only two in VF with none higher.
