Nearly Mint State Bechtler (Center Circle) $2.50 PCGS/CAC AU58

Sirhc

Rare

At a time when federal specie was virtually unseen in circulation, the Bechtlers successfully converted the gold mined in and around Rutherfordton and beyond into coinage suitable for local commerce, and of consistently high quality. It was a group of local miners who first petitioned Christopher Bechtler, a respected jeweler, to perform this assaying and coining service.  According to Don Kagin, “this was quite agreeable to Bechtler, for on July 2, 1831, and for several weeks thereafter, he ran an advertisement which announced that he was ready to coin the products of the mines into $2.50 and $5.00 pieces … .” Later, Bechtler would be the first to put gold dollars into the channels of American commerce.  PCGS has graded just 10 in all grades combined for this variety. Of those, this is the only AU58 with just 3 higher.

First Year 1907 No Motto Indian Eagles PCGS AU58 & PCGS MS61

Sirhc

A Special Offering

Saint-Gaudens’ initial design for the Indian eagle did not include the motto IN GOD WE TRUST, but the inscription was added in 1908, creating a popular two-year design type. The 1907 issue is the go-to No Motto type-coin for many collectors. And that makes perfect sense, as it’s a first- year-of-issue of a two-year type. We have the following available for sale:

PCGS AU-58 (20 coins available) Offered at $1,195/each

PCGS MS-61 (18 coins available) Offered at $1,265/each

1854 Large Date Liberty Double Eagle PCGS/CAC AU58

Sirhc

Large One (Date)

Much scarcer than its Small Date counterpart, the Large Date 1854 double eagle continues to gain popularity among collectors as one of the premier Type One varieties in the series. It is a considerable condition rarity as well as an absolutely scarce variety, represented by only a small fraction of the total 1854 mintage of 757,899 pieces. This particular example exhibits an especially wholesome appearance. The PCGS population is just 15 with 8 higher.

1852-O Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

Pleasing Type 1 O-Mint $20

The 1852-O is a median rarity in the Type One series, ranking 25th out of the 43 issues. The mintage for this date is an appealingly low 190,000 pieces, and survivors are seldom found in Uncirculated condition. The near-mint state grade, such as this coin offers, is often considered the best collector value. The one offered here is more lustrous and attractive in-hand.

1909-O Indian Half Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

Nearly Mint State $5 Indian Rarity

The Indian Head design quarter eagles, half eagles, and eagles were, with a single exception, minted at Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco. The one exception, of course, is the 1909 Indian half eagle coined at New Orleans. Total production for the issue was just 34,200 coins. Additionally, the issue appears to be the object of heavy collector demand and this is an ideal grade for collector consideration.

We have three coins available…

1854 Kellogg & Co. $20 NGC AU58

Sirhc

No Cereal Here

The United States Assay Office of Gold ceased coinage operations at the end of 1853, making way for the opening of the San Francisco Mint in 1854. The new branch mint was unable to start coining immediately, with needed improvements to the facility taking precedence. As usual, the West Coast was in dire need of gold coinage, so the private firm of Kellogg & Company filled the void by striking twenty dollar gold pieces in February, 1854. The coinage was readily accepted in commerce, since both John G. Kellogg and G.F. Richter were former employees of the U.S. Assay Office. The coin offered here looks noticeably more lustrous and eye-appealing in hand.

1921 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

Very Rare, Nearly Mint State

The 1921 Saint-Gaudens double eagle is one of the major rarities in the series, despite an innocuous-sounding mintage of 528,500 coins. But the issue is the only gold coin the United States struck during the year. The date was not exported for international trade; neither did it circulate in the United States. Rather, the coins stayed in Treasury vaults until the 1930s, when they were melted in the great extinction event of the era, the Gold Recall of 1933. Examples are absent in overseas holdings returned to the States, and no domestic hoards have been uncovered. It is likely that no more than 175 examples of the issue survive in all grades.

1839-D Classic Quarter Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

Rare, Nearly Unc.

The Dahlonega Mint opened for business in 1838, for the purpose of providing a coinage facility for miners of Southern gold and to service the local economy. As a result, coins produced at the Georgia branch mint circulated extensively. The first gold pieces struck at the Dahlonega Mint in 1838 were half eagles. Quarter eagles followed in 1839. In both cases, the first-year issue is a one-year type showing William Kneass’s Classic Head Liberty design. The NGC population is just 18 with 14 higher.

1857-O Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU58

Sirhc

1857-O Liberty Double Eagle NGC AU58

Although the 30,000-piece mintage of the 1857-O Liberty double eagle would be considered small in almost any other series, it was actually a significant increase over the production totals of the previous three years for this denomination at New Orleans. The coins were released into circulation, where they suffered heavy use and attrition over time. Despite a number of quality pieces that were recovered from the wreck of the S.S. Republic in recent times, the 1857-O is an elusive issue in AU58, and Mint State specimens are rare. This example is considerably more lustrous/brighter than seen in our images. The NGC population stands at 27 with just 7 higher.
