This stunning, well preserved example, displays glistening golden-amber surfaces that lighten in the center. Distributed at the Chicago Columbian Exposition but was completely overshadowed by the Columbian Half Dollar that was also being distributed. There was an original order of 40,000 coins, but because of lack of demand, and interest, 15,809 coins were returned to the mint for melting.

With a mintage of only 100 pieces, this is without a doubt the toughest matte proof quarter eagle to acquire. To the untrained eye one might wonder why this isn’t a PR 65 or 66, and with good reason. It is kept out of the higher grade by minute lines, barely noticeable to the naked eye. A great coin with a very handsome appearance! Totally original matte proof gold is one of the most highly sought after areas in the hobby today. This piece is sure to please.

Radiant cherry-red illuminates both sides of this vibrant gorgeous coin. A precision like strike is seen on all the devices. The Two Cent Piece has always been in high demand and finding those special pieces with great surfaces, is tough. A great series to collect; the two cent piece only ran for nine years.

Producing a die, whether for circulation strikes or proofs, was very time consuming and expensive, so in order to save money and speed up production, prior year dies were overstruck with the current year’s date. Through current Pop reports, and personal observation, it appears that the 1879/8 is twice as scarce as the normal date. An attractive piece, showing brilliant surfaces and great field-device contrast. Housed in an “Old Green Holder.”

A stunning “first year of issue” example, bold detail is noted on both the obverse and reverse. This is the “No Cents” variety that was changed within the year to stop counterfeiters from reeding the edges, gold plating the coins and passing them off as $5 gold pieces. “Old Rattler Holder.”

An electrifying Buffalo Nickel with crisp detail and gorgeous eye-appeal. Wonderful flowing luster that radiates through the warm caramel tones that set on the center. There is some awesome lilac and rose that lights up the rims. The reverse has more of the steely-blue tone with just hints of honey.
