  • 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.

  • 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.

    1849-C $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle NGC MS60 SKU: 4838110006 Stock Qty: 0 Retail Price: $7,900.00 PCGS #: 8241 Product Description 1849-C $5 Liberty Head Half Eagle NGC MS60--$7,900.00 We are pleased to offer for your consideration a mint state example of the 1849-C $5 half eagle. A rare coin such as this would be the perfect addition to a type set of important U.S. gold coinage. Doug Winter writes, "This is among the best struck half eagles from this [Charlotte] mint. As a result, the 1849-C is very popular with type collectors who are seeking a single, well-produced example of this denomination. The detail on the obverse is actually comparable to that seen on Philadelphia half eagles of this era." Discussing the color found on this date, continues Winter, "Some have a medium to deep yellow-gold color that can be very attractive"--as does the example being offered--"The eye appeal for this date tends to be better than on most other Charlotte half eagles." Here's an interesting aside for collectors: Did you know that the Liberty head half eagles were the only coin to be struck at every single U.S. mint? So, if you would like to put together a type set of Liberty head $5 half eagles, then a great project would be to acquire one of each minted in Philadelphia, Charlotte, Dahlonega, New Orleans, San Francisco, Carson City, and Denver! Imagine putting together that unique set of seven coins from seven different mints.

  • Modern Chinese Counterfeits of United States Coins a Collection of Observations and Tips to Help Survive the Modern Counterfeiting Epidemic
    Modern Chinese Counterfeits of United States Coins A collection of observations and tips to help survive the modern counterfeiting epidemic. By: Thomas Walker I’ve had several requests for me to do a writeup on detecting modern Chinese counterfeits of Chinese coins, so here we go. In the past 2 decades, we have seen an influx of counterfeit US coins into the market to the scope of which we had never seen before. They are being mass-produced by Chinese counterfeiters in workshops dedicated to creating counterfeit coins of all types. Then these counterfeits are sold on wholesale sites (which I will not name so nefarious folks don’t go there) and can be bought for $1-2 (up to around $100 or more!) apiece from very reliable sellers. This is a low risk, high possible reward scenario for criminals and scammers. The price indicates the level of quality of the counterfeits, ranging from crappy obvious fakes (which still screw ignorant people out of hundreds of dollars) to high-quality fakes that can fool dealers and possibly even the leading third-party graders. The Chinese counterfeiters are no longer casting their counterfeits; the vast majority are die-struck on heavy-duty coin presses. In addition, the majority are not magnetic as they are being made of non-ferrous materials, such as brass. Of paramount importance to know is that the Chinese have determined that no US coin is too cheap or common to fake, so the logic that “a coin has to be real since it is not worth faking” should be thrown out the window.

  • Attributing US Coin Die Varieties
    Attributing United States Coin Die Varieties An Introduction Areas of Variety Attribution There are two basic disciplines of variety attribution with respect to US coins. Each requires a somewhat different set of skills. • The first area pertains to dies produced using extensive hand punching of the lesser design elements. These include all of the Liberty Bust types coined from 1793 until the mid- to late 1830s. The presses of this period simply were not powerful enough to transmit the entire design in the die- making process. • The second area concerns dies in which nearly the entire design was hubbed, leaving only the date and mintmark to be hand punched. Such coins were made from the late 1830s until fairly recently, but since 1990–91 all features of the die have been fully hubbed with almost no variation beyond that caused by the occasional double-hubbed die. Attributing Varieties on Hand Punched Dies On early US coins, only the central devices were impressed into the die using a hub. These typically included the bust of Liberty and the figure of an eagle. Liberty’s hair and the eagle’s feathers were often touched up afterward with a graving tool to bring them out more fully. Small elements, such as the leaves and stems of the wreath, were then added with individual punches. The placement of stars, legends, the denomination and the date was also done with hand punches. The engraver used a compass to inscribe a circle for arranging these elements as neatly as possible, but their relative positions always varied enough that a numismatist may distinguish one die from another.
