CAC. Sharp detail with problem-free original surfaces that retain a trace of mint luster. A great choice for a type collector seeking a nice Dahlonega ‘Five’.

Well struck with minimal marks and lustrous original surfaces. Only 2 have graded numerically finer at NGC!

An exceptionally well struck coin from a date that often displays a weak strike. The surfaces are wonderfully original with rich satiny luster and a faint blue-green hue, especially on the reverse. A scarce coin in this high of grade with just 13 examples grading numerically finer at PCGS.

A semi-key date that is very tough to find in high grade. The mintage was 430,000 which is fairly robust for the era, but few coins were saved by collectors. This is a very attractive, sharply struck example, with vibrant brilliant luster and just a tiny trace of high point friction.

Arrows and Rays. Intense silver-gray luster flows over very sharply struck surfaces and displays excellent eye appeal. Marks are trivial and few. Arrows and rays were added to the existing design in 1853 to denote a reduction in silver content. The following year, the rays were eliminated but the arrows remained. The result was this […]

The U.S. Assay Office was located in San Francisco and was the forerunner of what would become the San Francisco Mint. They struck $10, $20 and $50 gold coins. This beautiful ‘Twenty’ is a bright, sharply struck example boldly displaying the “900 THOUS.” fineness designation. The eagle side shows strong definition and frosty luster across […]

Well detailed and lustrous with just light high-point wear. Housed in an old green label holder.

Sharply struck with original toned surfaces.

A pleasing example of this one-year sub-type with arrows on other side of the date and rays on the reverse. These changes were to denote a weight change to the quarter dollar. This coin is sharply struck with vibrant luster and choice silver-gray surfaces.
