1857-S S.S. Central America $20 Liberty PCGS MS65

Sirhc

“Head Turner”/“Turned Head”

The discovery of the thousands of Type One twenties in mint condition from the salvage of the S.S. Central America in the late 1980s proved to be a boon for collectors since this first design type was rarely encountered in Uncirculated grades before these pieces entered the market. One characteristic common to all of these salvaged twenties is the extraordinary mint luster. Because the coins lay undisturbed more than two miles below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean they were unaffected by the abrasive effects of salt water that normally subdues the luster on gold coins found on ship wrecks found in more shallow waters.

1883-S Morgan Dollar PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Not Your Everyday S-Mint Morgan

Although heavily touted as a conditionally scarce date in Mint State, the 1883-S Morgan remains collectible in grades through MS64, and is frequently offered at auction in this range. It is the Gem grade level from where this issue draws its fame. In MS65, the 1883-S Morgan is a grand rarity in absolute numbers, and in the context of the series, is prohibitively rare. This particular example is sharp, flashy and virtually white, with considerable eye-appeal. The PCGS population is just 21 with 5 higher.

1873-CC Trade Dollar PCGS MS64

Sirhc

Seeing Double “C”s on a Rare “Trade”

The Trade dollar represented the first substantial silver dollar mintage at the Carson City Mint since its opening in 1870. The 1873-CC, struck to the extent of 124,500 coins, eclipsed the mintages of all four Seated dollars from this mint combined by more than 100,000 pieces. Nevertheless, this was the second-lowest production total from Carson City for the Trade dollar series, trailing only the 1878-CC (97,000 coins). This coin is considerably more lustrous, as well as more colorful in hand. Tied with seven others at this grade level with just a single example graded higher.

Complete PCGS MS65 Liberty Nickel Set

Sirhc

1883 No Cents to 1912-S

Here is a rare opportunity for a complete, well matched PCGS MS65 set of Liberty Nickels. Each coin exhibits light to medium patina, with none being dark or unattractive. Please note that what looks to be a humongous scratch on the 1912-S, is a scratch on the holder, not the coin. Additionally, the 1885 and 1886 – the two most valuable coins in the set – are highly lustrous and eye-appealing.

1924-S Standing Liberty Quarter PCGS MS66FH

Sirhc

Just One Graded Higher

The availability of the 1924-S quarter in Full Head plummets above MS65, where it becomes one of the lesser-known condition rarities of the series. Coins are rarely seen in MS66 Full Head and are nearly unknown finer at PCGS. In fact, this is one of only sixteen MS66’s recognized by PCGS with a single (MS67) example graded higher. This one is very nicely detailed and exhibits plentiful luster.

1879 Morgan Dollar PCGS MS66 DMPL

Sirhc

Tied for Highest Graded

Even though a large number of examples of the 1879 silver dollar were struck for circulation, gem (or better) DMPL survivors are very rarely seen. This particular example offers ultimate contrast and reflectivity on untoned silver-white surfaces that are free of mentionable marks. The highly desired “silver-on-black” effect is seen in full force when this coin is tilted under a light and it looks far more impressive in hand than seen in our images. Tied with three others for the highest graded by PCGS.

1799 Draped Bust Eagle PCGS MS63

Sirhc

Gorgeous for her Age

Large Stars Obverse variety. The early Philadelphia Mint was concerned about the numbers of coins struck and the serviceability of the dies required for their production, and not at all about the particular date those dies bore (or in some extreme cases, even the design). While the first few eagle emissions, from the 1795 Small Eagle through the 1798 Large Eagle, are each known from at least one to at most five die marriages per year, the 1799 eagle, all struck with the Large Eagle or Heraldic Eagle reverse, were produced in 10 different die pairings known to collectors today.

1909-O Indian Half Eagle PCGS MS61

Sirhc

Very Rare Key

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 un-collectible.

1877-CC $20 Liberty AU58 PCGS

Sirhc

Elusive

Widely circulated at the time, many of the 1877-CC $20’s ended up in overseas shipments and have extensive surface scratches – the specimen on offer today has a minimum of surface distractions and sports considerable luster and eye appeal. Perfect for the specialist CC collector or US gold enthusiast.

1857 Liberty Double Eagle PCGS MS62

Sirhc

Only 7 Graded Higher

The 1857 Liberty double eagle claims a mintage of 439,375 pieces and the issue is not difficult to locate in circulated grades up to the XF-AU level. This issue was not nearly as well-represented in recent shipwreck finds as its San Francisco counterpart, with only two examples recovered from the S.S. Central America and 26 found in the wreck of the S.S. Republic. As a result, the 1857 is rare in MS62 condition, and a prime condition rarity in higher grades. The one offered here displays a crusty area at approximately 1:00-2:00 at the obverse rim. We prefer to leave it as is, for its originality. The PCGS population is just 28 with 7 higher.
