A Special Coin for a Special Cause : 2019 W Burnished Silver American Eagle

As the summer of 2019 arrives the U.S. Mint is releasing one of its most popular coins. The West Point minted burnished Silver American Eagle is out on May 29th. This of course is not really new news as it has been on the calendar all year. The reason this year is special for us is; we have been asked to participate in a program that will directly benefit our country’s wounded veterans. United States 1st Sgt. Christopher Roseberry has built an organization called Dogs For Our Brave. They train and place service dogs with our country’s soldiers who were wounded protecting our freedom. We are proud to be able to be a part of this program.  1st Sgt. Roseberry with personally sign 250-2019 Burnished Silver Eagles graded Mint State 70 … [Read more...]

1893-S The King of All Morgan Silver Dollars

Key of Morgan Dollar Series Mintage 100,00 The 1893-S Morgan Dollar is recognized as the absolute key date of the series and has demand at all grade levels. This date  has the lowest mintage for a circulation strike of the series with just 100,000 minted. Unlike many other dates of the series, no hoards have ever appeared on the market, and it seems highly unlikely that any ever will. Most examples will be encountered in circulated condition, with a high concentration in VF. A very limited supply of mint state pieces are available. The finest known 1893-S Morgan Silver Dollar is a piece graded by PCGS as MS67, which sold by private-treaty for over a million dollars recently. We just acquired an original example … [Read more...]

The Proof 1876 Half Eagle is one of the most popular reconstruction era (1865-1877) issues known with an ultra-low mintage of just 45 coins.

Of course, Proof gold has long been numismatic caviar for collectors with a knack for aesthetics and rarity. The likes of Eliasberg, Trompeter and Bass saw these masterpieces as exceptional values in their day. A Gem example hasn’t been on the market in years. Demand has only increased for the date. One of a kind. Price on request. … [Read more...]

Coin of the Week May 6,2019

1851 New Orleans 3 Cent Silver Branch Mint Specimen Strike and Proof coinage represents the rarest of the rare in American numismatics. To understand just how special these coins really are, one must understand how coins were struck at Branch Mint facilities. The Branch Mints, including New Orleans, were set up for a commercial need. Philadelphia was the hub, and the other Mints just a spoke in the wheel. The hub (Philadelphia) made coins for commerce and to serve special collector interests, like making pattern coins and Proofs. The Branch Mints were designed for one need only, to produce coins to demand for the regions they were in. That is why one almost never hears of the existence of a Branch Mint Proof or Specimen … [Read more...]
