1833 Capped Head Quarter Eagle NGC MS61

Sirhc

Rare Unc.

As expected from a coin with only 4,160 pieces produced, many known mint state examples have semi-prooflike fields as almost all the mintage is essentially a first-strike. Fortunately, this one is no exception in that regard. A mere 60 to 80 pieces of this date are believed known. Mass meltings account for the scarcity of this and other early quarter eagle and half eagle issues. The NGC population is just 8 with 14 higher.

1907 Wire Edge High Relief Pair

Sirhc

A Grade Lower Than Yesterday’s

The 1907 High Reliefs with Roman Numerals in the date, is acknowledged as the most beautiful design ever employed on a circulation-strike U.S. coin. They were the result of a lengthy collaboration between famous sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, who was encouraged to develop the design by President Theodore Roosevelt, and Chief Engraver Charles Barber of the Philadelphia Mint.  Each coin required three blows from the 150-ton medal press to completely bring up the design, and the planchets had to be annealed between each blow. The average time needed to strike each individual coin was 12 minutes, clearly too slow to strike any large number of coins. As a result, only 12,367 pieces were reportedly produced.

1830 Capped Head Quarter Eagle NGC MS62

Sirhc

Rare Unc. Reduced Diameter

The story of the 1830 quarter eagles is a virtual carbon copy of the first year of this variety – the 1829. The production was a low-mintage affair, in this case totaling 4,540 coins, a slight uptick from the previous year. Only a single die pair and a single die state are known, since so few examples were struck. This is an extremely short lived variety (with a reduced diameter), spanning only the years 1829-1834. Representatives of each date are difficult to locate in any grade. Though not apparent in our images, this one is bright and flashy.

1803 Draped Bust Half Dollar NGC MS61

Sirhc

Highly Impressive Mint State

Large 3, Small Reverse Stars. Ex: “Col.” E.H.R. Green. This impressive looking Mint State piece is one of just eight that NGC has certified as MS60 or finer, for all four die varieties, and only three of those are graded higher than this example. Both sides display vibrant luster at the centers with bands of gold and sea-green toning. This date is underrated in Mint State. While type collectors may have their pick of uncirculated coins dated 1806 and 1807, date collectors must look long and hard to find one dated 1803. This particular representative is considerably lighter and flashier than portrayed in our images.

1893 Morgan Dollar NGC MS66

Sirhc

Just 1 Graded (Only Slightly) Higher

The Panic of 1893 had far-reaching financial consequences, including the repeal of the Sherman Silver Purchase Act. Freed from the obligation to produce massive quantities of unneeded silver dollars, the United States Mint drastically reduced Morgan dollar production at all active mints in 1893. Only 378,000 examples were struck at the Philadelphia facility that year, making the 1893 a challenging date in the series, especially in grades above the MS65 level. The NGC population is just 5 with a single (MS66+) example graded higher.
