1885 Liberty Nickel NGC MS67

Sirhc

Pop 3, None Higher Key Date Lib Nickel

 The 1885 has been recognized for more than a century as the coin to have, the key to the set of Liberty nickels. Only 1.4 million pieces were struck and pieces were set aside shortly after this tiny mintage became known; although by the time the general public was aware of it most coins of this date had been in circulation for some time. The availability of the 1885 shows a typical bell curve. At NGC, MS60 pieces show only two pieces certified, numbers gradually increase to the MS64 grade, then quickly taper off to the ultimate grade of MS67. The NGC population is just three (one of which is a star-designated example) with none higher. Listed at $38,700 in the CDN CPG and $25,000 in the NGC price guide.

Ancient Greek Coinage – the Athenian Tetradrachm Ca 450 – 404 BC NGC AU – Strike 5/5, Surface 4/5

Sirhc

The most prominent city in Ancient Greece militarily and economically, Athens had at its disposal an almost inexhaustible supply of silver from the mines it controlled at Laurion. This mine would be instrumental as Athenian influence increased in the region. To facilitate this expansion, a large supply of coinage was necessary, both for international economy and as a means of declaring Athems’ dominance in the region. The famous “owl” silver coinage was introduced around 520 BC, featuring the helmeted head of Athena, and on the reverse, the standing figure of an owl, her sacred bird. Over time, the design of the owls became more streamlined, culminating in the naturalistic style of the coins on offer here.

Struck around the time period of the Peloponnesian War (431 to 404 BC), these ancient trade coins formed the basis of the Greek economy in antiquity and circulated widely in the Mediterranean region and beyond. Athenian “owls” are a good candidate for being the most famous coins of antiquity, and provide a link to the history and style of the ancient world that is without parallel.

A most famous ancient Greek silver coin, certified About Uncirculated and boldly struck, with an attractive light grey tone.

1796 Draped Bust Dime NGC MS65

Sirhc

Attractive Gem, First Year

Extremely well struck and (while not apparent in our images) attractively toned in shades of violet, turquoise and mint-green. The 1796 Draped Bust, Small Eagle dime is always in demand from type collectors and series specialists, alike. Aside from its status as the first year of the denomination, it garners special attention as the first year of a two-year design type, since the Small Eagle reverse was retired after 1797. NGC population of only 8 with 10 (including one PL) graded higher. Listed at $115,000 in the CDN CPG, $125,000 in the NGC price guide and $80,000 in Trends.

1929 Indian Half Eagle NGC MS62

Sirhc

Rare Unc. Key Date

No half eagles were struck between 1916 and 1929, but the Philadelphia Mint produced a total of 662,000 coins in the later year. Unfortunately, the effects of the Great Depression were beginning to be felt and there was little need for the coins in the shrinking economy. Most of the mintage was held in government storage and later destroyed after 1933. No half eagles were struck in later years and the 1929 is a key date in the series today. Although our reverse image makes that side of the coin appear to be dark, you’re seeing the effect of the angle and lighting – the true color is actually quite similar to that of the obverse. Listed at $46,500 in the NGC price guide.

1879-S Liberty Double Eagles NGC/PCGS MS61

Sirhc

Ten Tough $20 Lib. S-mints

The San Francisco Mint continued to be the chief producer of double eagles in 1879, striking more than 1.2 million coins (about 1 million pieces more than all three other mints combined). However, Uncirculated examples are seldom offered finer than MS61 and are decidedly rare finer than MS62. If you’re looking for one of those MS62’s you should know that it’s likely to cost more than three times the amount of these MS61’s. Listed at $3,750 in both the CDN CPG and the NGC price guide and $4,250 in the PCGS price guide.

Choice Key 1911-D Indian Quarter Eagle NGC MS63

Sirhc

The 1911-D is the first of only three branch mint issues in the Indian quarter eagle series and it claims a mintage of just 55,680 pieces, a remarkably small production total for any 20th century coin. Accordingly, this issue is the rarest Indian quarter eagle and the acknowledged key to the series. Most examples seen are in lower Mint State grades. The one offered here is lighter in hue and more lustrous than seen in our images. Listed at $12,900 in the CDN CPG, $14,300 in the NGC price guide and $15,000 in Trends.

Rare Gem – 1838-O No Stars Seated Liberty Dime NGC MS65

Sirhc

After almost half a century without expansion, the U.S. Mint established three branches that began operations in 1838: Charlotte, Dahlonega, and New Orleans. Of the three, only New Orleans struck silver coinage in addition to gold. Only 404,034 representatives were struck. As the first dime issue produced at the New Orleans Mint, this issue is also popular as a two-year No Stars type. In Mint State this date is scarcely seen, and Gem-quality pieces are nothing short of rare. The NGC population is a mere 4 with 2 higher. Listed at $21,200 in the CDN CPG, $23,400 in the NGC price guide and $22,500 in Trends.

Very Rare Mint State 1909-O Indian Half Eagle NGC MS62

Sirhc

The 1909-O half eagle is distinctive in several ways: it is the final gold issue produced at the New Orleans Mint, it is the sole O-mint Indian Head type coin, and it has the lowest circulation-strike mintage (34,200 pieces) of any date in the Indian half eagle series with a proportionately low survival rate in high grade. About Uncirculated examples are scarce, and Mint State representative through MS62 are extremely challenging. Pieces grading finer than this are genuine rarities, and Gem-quality coins are virtually uncollectible. The NGC population stands at just 26 with 17 higher. Listed at $62,900 in the CDN CPG, $73,500 in the NGC price guide and $65,000 in Trends.
