Tied for Highest Graded – 1873 DDO Closed 3 Indian Cent NGC MS64BN CAC

dyann

This, the FS-101, is the more desirable of the two major 1873 cent doubled die varieties. It is readily identifiable by bold obverse doubling on the letters in LIBERTY, Liberty’s eye and profile, and the feather stems. This variety was first reported in 1957, and, while examples have been discovered since, less than 20 examples (per Rick Snow) are known in Mint State. The NGC population is just 7 with none graded higher.

Unlisted in the NGC price guide, but listed at $16,100 in the PCGS price guide.

Offered at $13,100

1873 No Arrows (Closed 3) Seated Liberty Half Dollar PCGS PR66 DCAM

Sirhc

This issue saw a relatively small mintage of 600 pieces, with only six survivors designated as DCAM by PCGS for all grades combined. The example offered here is one of just two at the PR66 DCAM grade level, with none higher. It’s virtually color-free and offers deeply mirrored fields, along with intense cameo contrast and splendid eye-appeal

1873 (Closed 3) Liberty Eagle NGC AU53

Sirhc

Very Rare

The 1873 Closed 3 (old name) or Close 3 (current nomenclature) coins were struck early in the year and the date logotype for all denominations was modified following complaints that the digit looked like an 8. Among Liberty eagles, the entire 800-coin mintage for the year was produced in January 1873, and none were minted with the modified Open 3 date style. Proof coins were preferred over Mint State coins in the 19th century, so no circulation strikes were saved at the time of issue, despite the low mintage. As a result, high grade survivors are non-existent. The NGC population is only 2 with 9 higher, none better than AU58.

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.
