THE Single Highest Graded -1863 Seated Liberty Half Dollar PCGS PR66+ Deep Cameo

Sirhc

The Philadelphia Mint struck a small production of 460 proof Seated Liberty half dollars for collectors in 1863, at the height of the Civil War. The generously frosted devices on this beauty stand out in stark contrast to the deeply mirrored fields. Better yet, the contrast is even more pronounced than is apparent in our images. Light iridescent patina in shades of olive, blue and copper, among others, graces the peripheries – more noticeably so on the obverse. This example is the only one to have received this grade and designation from PCGS with none graded higher. It also has the distinction of being the only PCGS DCAM of any grade for this date.

Listed at $47,500 in the PCGS price guide.

Gem 1870 Seated Liberty Dollar NGC PR65 Cameo

Sirhc

A fairly generous mintage of 1,000 Seated Liberty dollars was accomplished at the Philadelphia Mint in 1870, but the issue is much more difficult to locate than the large production total would suggest. It is likely that many coins remained unsold and were melted after the end of the year. Today, the issue is quite elusive at the Gem level, and finer coins are very rare. The NGC population is 9 with 7 graded higher. Listed at $15,500 in the NGC price guide.

Generally quite scarce, early federal period American coins are always in demand.  This coin, sporting an even grey patina and golden undertone, is a most desirable and lovely example of the type.  In the wide spectrum of U.S. numismatics, early dollars hold a special place in the hearts of collectors.

Silver Consumption in Global Automotive Sector to Approach 90 Million Ounces By 2025; Should Challenge Silver Usage in Photovoltaic Industry

Sirhc

With modern cars using more silver than ever in their
advanced technology components, the worldwide
automotive sector could need nearly 90 million ounces
(Moz) annually of the metal by 2025, according to a
recently-published report by the Silver Institute.
In four years, silver consumption in the automotive
sector should rival that of the photovoltaic industry,
forecast to reach 98 Moz in 2025, and currently the
largest application of global industrial silver demand,
according to the report Silver’s Growing Role in the
Automotive Industry, produced on behalf of the Silver
Institute by Metals Focus, an independent precious metals
consultancy.
The report, part of the Silver Institute’s series of Market
Trend Reports, examines trends in automotive production,
including the growth and evolution of hybrid and battery
electric vehicles. It also addresses transportation policies
that favor vehicle electrification in some of the world’s
most important vehicle markets.

1895-O Morgan Dollar PCGS MS62+

Sirhc

This Rare Morgan is a Definite “Plus”

There are a great number of 1895-O dollars available in the range of Very Fine to low AU, but in Mint State the population thins out by an order of magnitude, with most of those coins in the lower Mint State grades of MS60 to MS62. In MS63 the 1895-O is rarity of great achievement to acquire. In his Guide Book of Morgan Silver Dollars, Q. David Bowers writes: “The 1895-O emerged as the single circulation-strike variety that is not known to have been a part of any Treasury releases via bags. … I have heard suggestions that from several dozen to a couple hundred Mint State coins came out of the Treasury Building in the early 1950s, but how they would grade today is anybody’s guess. Uncirculated coins of years ago are often classified as AU today. I have found no account or even a rumor of any being a part of the 1962 through 1964 Treasury release.” The one offered here is considerably more lustrous than seen in our images.
