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.

1854 Gold Dollar PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Gem Type II

Gold dollar type collectors will find the short-lived Type Two design to be the most difficult to acquire. Of the six issues struck with the Small Head, Indian Princess dies, only the 1854 and 1855 are viable options for most type purposes and neither is particularly plentiful in high grade. Both the 1854 and 1855 issues are prone to strike weakness as a result of the high-relief design, frequently accompanied by the clash marks that are prevalent on representatives of the type.

1842 Braided Hair Large Cent PCGS/CAC PR64BN

Sirhc

Very Rare Early Proof

The proof 1842 cent is much rarer than its 1841 predecessor. PCGS has graded only 4 examples at this grade and color designation, with just 2 higher, along with a single RB and a single RD representative. This beauty displays primarily walnut-brown surfaces with some darker mahogany toning. There are also some areas of reddish and blue iridescence, which show under a good light. In hand, up close and personal, this coin is noticeably more appealing looking.

1914 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle PCGS MS65

Sirhc

Rare Gem

The low-mintage 1914 double eagle was struck to the extent of 95,250 coins for circulation, with 49 of those destroyed for assay purposes. Roger Burdette reports virtually the entire production was shipped to banks or subtreasuries. A number of those coins must have eventually made their way overseas, as 3,500 or so examples have been repatriated over the years, accounting for nearly the entire surviving population of 1914 double eagles. Usually, these are seen in MS62 to MS64 with Gems being rare and Premium Gems practically unavailable. Only 8 have been graded higher by PCGS, 3 of which are MS65+ examples.
