Deep pewter gray patina throughout. The present example is certainly highly desirable. 587 1779 Rhode Island Brass Token - Wreath Below Ship - NGC MS63 $7,000 Pop 1. None Finer At NGC. Mintage Unknown. The Wreath Below Ship variety was the final issue of this popular token. This handsome Mint State piece has plenty of original antique gold color beneath an overlay of mottled gray-brown patina. Both sides of this piece are equally well defined with universally bold striking detail. Satiny in texture with an overall smooth appearance. Lustrous greenish-yellow surfaces. MORE ABOUT THIS PIECE: The obverse of Rhode Island Ship medals depict the flagship of British Admiral Lord Richard Howe and is anchored with the peripheral legend DE ADMIRALS FLAG van ADMIRAL HOWE 1779. The reverse shows Aquidneck island as the central motif with three warships to the left, about two dozen troops on the island, and soldiers fleeing in thirteen small boats to the right. The peripheral legend reads D'vlugtende AMERICAAN ENvan RHODE YLAND Augt 1778. PCGS Price Guide...$8000. No NGC price Guide Information. PCGS # Copper (All Varieties) Price Description 1543 1808 Classic Head Cent -- NGC MS67 BN $67,500 Finest Certified for the Issue. This is truly an outstanding example of one of the most conditionally challenging design types in all of U.S. numismatics. Highly lustrous bluish-steel and rose-brown with a faint wisp of darker steel toning at the cap above the letters RT in LIBERTY. The surfaces are satiny and the luster is unbroken. A beautiful example of the popular, yet challenging "Turban Head" cent. Produced for only seven years from 1808 through 1814, the Classic Head cent design is the work of German-born engraver John Reich. Known for years among numismatists as the Turban Head cent (based on the name popularized by Edouard Frossard in his 1879 monograph), the more familiar Classic Head name used today actually predates Frossard's description and is attributed to Ebenezer Locke Mason, Jr. in 1868. Regardless of the exact circumstances of its design and replacement, the Classic Head series is one of the shortest among early coppers from the United States Mint. This first year 1808 is just such a coin and would make an impressive addition to the finest type or variety set. CDN Retail Price Guide...$78,000. PCGS # Three Cent Nickels Price Description 83773 1877 Three Cent Nickel -- NGC PF68 Cameo $9,900 Pop 3 between both services. None Finer. This amazing Superb Gem Cameo proof is among the finest pieces ever certified, and it is a thing of beauty. Both sides are brilliant light gray with no evidence of toning. The 1877 is a proof-only key-date issue in the three cent nickel series, and few can equal the quality of this piece. No Price Guide information. Price Guide In one point lower at PF67Cameo...$9500. Imagine what the price guide might be in PF68 Cameo! 3774 1878 Three Cent Nickel -- PCGS PR67+ CAC $2,000 Only 2 Finer at PCGS. Superb plus-graded gem. Bands of pink and sea-green surround flawless frosty golden devices. Scarce proof-only issue from a mintage of just 2,350 coins. CAC approved for quality. PCGS+ grade for premium quality at the top of end of the assigned grade. PCGS Price Guide in Proof 67(Plus)...$2,000. In PR68...$10,500. PCGS # Nickels (All Varieties) Price Description 3817 1866 Rays Shield Nickel -- NGC PF67 Cameo $11,500 None Finer. The Proof mintage of this historic "First Year of Issue" is estimated at only 600. This is an exquisite survivor from the United States Mint's Five-Cent Nickel series. Untoned silver white surfaces allow strong contrast between frosty devices and mirrored fields. Fully struck throughout with amazing visual appeal. NGC Price Guide...$16,900 3884 1886 Liberty Nickel -- PCGS PR66 $1,200 Mintage...4290; PCGS Price Guide...$1,200 3942 1919-D Buffalo Nickel -- PCGS MS65 $3,600 This warmly toned example exhibits intermingled blushes of pale powder blue to dominant reddish-apricot patina. Near- fully struck, and uncommonly so for this challenging issue, lustrous surfaces are also remarkably smooth in hand even for the MS-65 grade assigned by PCGS. Many numismatic experts rank the 1919-D alongside the 1920-D as the rarest Denver Mint Buffalo nickel in fully struck Gem Uncirculated condition. 3943 1919-S Buffalo Nickel -- PCGS MS64 CAC $2,500 Scarce and desirable Choice Uncirculated quality for this key date entry in the San Francisco Mint Buffalo nickel series. Bathed in iridescent silver-apricot, pale gold, powder blue and even a few other light shades, both sides readily reveal bright satin luster as the surfaces rotate under a light. Nicely preserved and well struck otherwise. PCGS Prfce Guide in MS64 (NON-CAC)...$3500. iIn PCGS MS65...$10,000!!! 3945 1920-D Buffalo Nickel -- PCGS MS64 $1,900 Sharply to fully struck with richly original surfaces, this warmly patinated golden-gray example appears nicer than even some certified MS-65s that we have handled for this issue. Among the Mint State survivors poor striking quality and inferior luster are the rule, explaining the scarcity of attractive Choice and Gem quality examples such as this particular piece. Indeed, this is one of the better produced and more desirable survivors. PCGS Price Guide...$2750. 3955 1925-D Buffalo Nickel -- PCGS MS65 $2,800 A gorgeous Gem Mint State 1925-D nickel, one of the more conditionally challenging entries in the Buffalo series. Vividly toned in lemon-yellow and power blue iridescence, a full quota of smooth satin luster is also a praiseworthy attribute. All information provided is for reference only. Please verify with your own sources when discussing with your customers. 1 9/23/21 PCGS # Half Dimes (All Varieties) Price Description 11020 1792 Half Disme, Judd-7 -- NGC MS63 $330,000 Pop 1 with only 7 finer. Mintage...1,500. For the past 150 years, these coins have intrigued collectors as well as Mint officials. Much has been written about the origins of the half dismes, some of it embellishment, some outright fabrication. It is still believed by many that Martha Washington was the model for the figure of Liberty and the coins were struck from Washington's Sheffield silver plate. This particular piece must have been highly prized by its owner, as it is in essentially the same condition as when it left John Harper's saw shop 229 years ago. The only difference is the addition of multiple layers of gray, blue, and golden toning over each side. This is one of the finest pieces known of this historic issue. This is the only coin NGC has certified in MS63. NCG Price Guide...$350,000. 4438 1859 Seated Liberty Half Dime -- NGC PF65 $1,950 Mintage...800. A needle-sharp Gem with smooth, glassy fields. Peach-gold, lavender, and ocean-blue toning graces both sides. NGC Price Guide...$2850 4438 1859 Seated Liberty Half Dime -- PCGS PR66 CAC $3,750 Pop. 6 in PCGS CAC. GEMMY all the way! Premium quality mirrors beam from below a wonderful, original patina. The surfaces are icy smooth and very clean. The eye appeal is further enhanced by complete detail on both sides with a nearly cameo contrast on the obverse depending on what angle the light hits the frost. PCGS Price Guide in PR66...$3750. In PR67...$12,500 PCGS # Dimes (All Varieties) Price Description 4470 1800 Draped Bust Dime -- PCGS MS62 $22,000 Pop. 3. Only 4 Finer. Just two die marriages exist for the 1800 dimes, both share the same obverse with different reverses. All Mint State 1800 dimes are rarities. This MS62 example is exceeded by only a handful of specimens at PCGS. Dappled amber-gold toning intermixes with lilac and bright-silver areas on the obverse, while the reverse is a bit more toned in the same shades. A strong strike on the devices. This lightly toned example offers nice eye appeal and is an important opportunity for the advanced early dime specialist. PCGS Price Guide...$22,000. 4528 1836 Capped Bust Dime -- PCGS MS65 $4,600 Delicate and attractive gold toning visits the obverse and reverse surfaces of this sharply defined JR-2 Gem, which exhibits frosty silver luster and sensational eye appeal. A faint die crack travels upward from the obverse border at 6 o'clock, bisecting the die. PCGS Price Guide...$7500. 4529 1837 Capped Bust Dime -- NGC MS65+ $9,500 Only Seven Numerically finer at NGC. This is the final year of the Capped Bust design, with the Liberty Seated style on deck for later in 1837 when it was launched. Boldly struck on the eagle's feathers and shield, as well as on Liberty's curls. Of the four known die marriages of this issue JR-4 is the only variety of the issue with a Fancy 8 in the date, and it shares its reverse die with the JR-3 Block 8 variety. This piece has clean fields and devices, as expected for the gem "plus" grade level.

  • Coinage Act, 1873 [United States]
    Volume II The Heyday of the Gold Standard, 1820-1930 1873 February 12 Coinage Act, 1873, United States: “An Act revising and amending the Laws relative to the Mints, Assay, offices, and Coinage of the United States.” With the passage of this Act, the US Congress demonetised silver and established its participation in the international gold standard. This effectively ended the official bimetallism that had existed in the United States since 1792 and demonetised silver. Initially, the consequences were limited as silver had been undervalued at the old 15:1 ratio; however, as demand for gold rose, a return to silver became increasingly attractive to those who suffered from the subsequent deflation—primarily farmers who witnessed dramatic reductions in commodity prices. Those who blamed the deflation for their financial woes came to refer to the Coinage Act as the ‘Crime of 1873’. ——— Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the mint of the United States is hereby established as a bureau of the Treasury Department, embracing in its organization and under its control all mints for the manufacture of com, and all assay offices for the stamping of bars, which are now, or which may be hereafter, authorized by law. The chief officer of the said bureau shall be denominated the director of the mint, and shall be under the general direction of the Secretary of the Treasury. He shall be appointed by the President, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and shall hold his office for the term of five years, unless sooner removed by the President, upon reasons to be communicated by him to the Senate.

WELCOME… Dear Collector, Coins reflect the culture and the times in which they were produced, and U.S. coins tell the story of America in a way that no other artifact can. Why? Because they have been used since the nation’s beginnings. Pathfinders and trendsetters – Benjamin Franklin, Robert E. Lee, Teddy Roosevelt, Marilyn Monroe – you, your parents and grandparents have all used coins. When you hold one in your hand, you’re holding a tangible link to the past. David M. Sundman, You can travel back to colonial America LCC President with a large cent, the Civil War with a two-cent piece, or to the beginning of America’s involvement in WWI with a Mercury dime. Every U.S. coin is an enduring legacy from our nation’s past! Have a plan for your collection When many collectors begin, they may want to collect everything, because all different coin types fascinate them. But, after gaining more knowledge and experience, they usually find that it’s good to have a plan and a focus for what they want to collect. Although there are various ways (pages 8 & 9 list a few), building a complete date and mint mark collection (such as Lincoln cents) is considered by many to be the ultimate achievement.

    NPO-20190705243 Order Received: 2019 / 7 / 05 Numismatists’ Professional Opinion from the Numismatic Professionals at the Academy of Coins© 7/6/2019 Michael Schilling: Thank you for submitting your coin to PriceThatCoin.com. We examined your photographs. In our professional opinion, the coins pictured are: #1. All counterfeit: Counterfeit 1873 Pattern Trade Dollar, Counterfeit 1873 Pattern Trade Dollar, Fantasy (does not exist) 1865 Quarter Dollar, Counterfeit 1847-CC Counterfeit Seated Liberty Dollar, Counterfeit 1799 Draped Bust Dollar, Counterfeit 1799 Draped Bust Dollar, Fantasy (does not exist) 1851 Indian Head Dollar, Fantasy (does not exist) 1851 Indian Head Dollar. #2. Unfortunately, these coins are all definitely counterfeit coins. Without question. All of them. We've seen them before. Normally they're purchased in a pack together. Your photographs (rated 8 / 10, 10 perfect, 1 poor) are excellent for determining grade and authenticity. #3. Current Market Value (7/6/2019) These coins have no value. They are illegal to buy and illegal to sell. Most are not marked “COPY” as required by the Hobby Protection Act of 1973 (the 1965 Quarter is marked “FACSIMILE”). These counterfeit coins are normally made of a base metal with no bullion value. Some are magnetic, some are not. It is irrelevant, as these are all poor quality counterfeits. More Information: Ordinarily, we give you a link to an article here about how to sell coins like yours. There's no legal method to sell counterfeit coins. While we share in your disappointment – we love appraising great coins! - we're happy that you trusted us to educate you on the facts.

  • 1807 $5 Capped Bust Half Eagle, Bust Left NGC AU58
    1807 $5 Capped Bust Half Eagle, Bust Left NGC AU58 SKU: 1940217003 Stock Qty: 0 Retail Price: $8,900.00 PCGS #: 8101 Product Description We at AUCM are offering the 1807 $5 Capped Bust Half Eagle, Bust Left, an important first year gold type coin. It was in 1807 that the Draped Bust, Heraldic Eagle half eagle type produced from 1795-1807 was replaced by a new design, the Capped Bust half eagle. That was due to the hiring of John Reich, the new assistant engraver at the U.S. Mint in Philadelphia. The Capped Bust half eagles (Bust Left) were minted from 1807 to 1812. If you wish to collect Capped Bust Half Eagles, there are different approaches you can employ. One way is to purchase just one from among this short series: this example of the first-year 1807 graded AU58 by NGC would be the perfect choice. If you wish to develop a type set of early U.S. gold coins, please contact AUCM for professional assistance. Popular due to its status as a first-year-issue, 1807 coins are usually well struck and feature very sharp details. Centers of this coins often are fully detailed, while the borders tend to show some weakness of strike. Luster is excellent on original coins, as is the case with this offering. The natural color of this coin ranges from medium green-gold to a rich yellow-gold. This is an excellent type coin. Reich's obverse design for the 1807 half eagle presents a buxom Liberty facing left, bordered by seven stars on her left and six on her right.

  • For Sale: One of the First and Most Valuable Dollars in U.S. History You’Ll Need a Lot of Pretty Pennies to Buy It
    For Sale: One of the First and Most Valuable Dollars in U.S. History You’ll need a lot of pretty pennies to buy it. by Isaac Schultz August 28, 2020 The rarity of 1794 "Flowing Hair" dollars makes them among the most valuable coins in the world. This one sold for $10 million in 2013. In October, another dollar from the same batch will give it a run for its money. Rare Coin Wholesalers via Getty Images On October 15, 1794, Henry Voigt, the Chief Coiner of the United States, hurried nearly 2,000 silver coins to the desk of David Rittenhouse, the Director of the United States Mint. That day marked a milestone in the making of a country: Two years after Alexander Hamilton established the Mint under President George Washington, the first dollars had been minted. There’s some debate about what happened next. Some experts say there was a ceremony, well-attended by diplomats and representatives. Others say that despite the historic event, it was all business—no hor d’oeuvres, no party. Still others, including the Smithsonian Institution, say that the coinage was destined for the pockets of the aforementioned dignitaries, as a token of the bright future of the fledgling United States. What’s certain is that now, over 200 Octobers later, one of those dollars will go up for auction.
