1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, NGC MS-64 1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, NGC MS-64
Lot Title: 1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, NGC MS-64
Description: The mintmark is repunched north-east. Without the benefit of a glass, this coin truly appears to be a gem, but there are just enough superficial surface abrasions to disqualify the higher grade. A very agreeable coin.
Low Estimate: $925.00
High Estimate: $1,150.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.
Hammered Price: $1,100.00

Price history for items of the same classification:
Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
1107The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$1,350.00
1911-D MS-62.
A slightly weak mintmark echoes the problems seen with the key quarter-eagles of this same date. But, most 1911-D quarter eagles will not meet the near-choice UNC quality of a nice Saint like this,...
1107The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$3,200.00
1911-D NGC MS-66.
Definitively struck with virtually all facial features brought up, and the eagle has fully delineated breast feathers. Amazing eye-appeal benefits quite simply from the lack of contact throughout the...
1264The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$1,400.00
1911-D PCGS AU-58 (green label).
Barbara U'Dell Gold Collection. Hazy patina enshrouds the coin, reminiscent of the putty sometimes used to improve the overall appearance of gold pieces. Strangely enough, it actually does appear to...
1265The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$3,300.00
1911-D and 1914-S PCGS MS-64 (green label).
Samuel Robertson Gold Consignment. The old holders help alleviate any concerns about surface stability, and to that point, both Saints exhibit rich, outstanding, vintage royal-gold patina. By about...
1266The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$1,600.00
1911-D NGC MS-64.
Barbara U'Dell Gold Collection. As is often seen for 1911-D, both sides display very lovely frosty matte texture, with delicate grey patina overall. The coin is always listed right alongside the...
1026The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,600.00
1911-D NGC MS-63.
Quite a bit nicer than expected at arm's length, especially while one is intoxicated by the amazing luster. Premium quality overall, albeit with some very minor ticks on the rims.
1027The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$2,100.00
1911-D PCGS MS-65.
Although lumped in with the "common dates", 1911-D actually had a lower initial production of 846,500 pieces, and GEMs are not nearly as prevalent as for the other "commons". Few marks affect this...
656The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$1,500.00
1911-D PCGS MS-62 (rattler).
Better than average for MS-62 with regard to surface marks, there's just no denying that many Saints in these old rattler holders seem conservatively graded by today's standards. In this case,...
657The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$1,550.00
1911-D PCGS MS-64.
A really nice coin for the grade, and possibly undergraded, since neither side displays obvious handling marks. There are some minor shallow scrapes near the center of the eagle's motif, but their...
1241The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$3,400.00
1911-D and 1911-S PCGS MS-64.
The Denver coin is nearly pristine and has pronounced definition due to a terrific strike, and preservation is well above average for the grade. A light grease streak extends left of Liberty's...
1242The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$3,250.00
1911-D and 1923-D PCGS MS-64.
Denver Saints are both graded MS-64 by PCGS. 1911-D is exquisitely detailed, particularly on the obverse, while the 1923-D is not quiet as sharp and has evidence of die cracks on both sides. And...
1243The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$2,200.00
1911-D NGC MS-65.
Fields exhibit very few distractions, the sole exception being a tiny obverse discoloration in the extreme left field, possibly a remnant of a removed carbon spot. The mildly muted luster seen on...
977The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$1,850.00
1911-D Saint-Gaudens double eagle AU and a 1912 Indian eagle AU.
Fully lustrous but faintly worn on the highpoints, the 1911-D Saint looks BU at first glance, and should grade AU-58. The 1912 Indian eagle is nearly fully lustrous with gorgeous, original patina and...
1184The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$2,400.00
1911-D and 1915-S MS-62.
Either or both of these Saints may have been trivially cleaned in the past, but at first glance, they appear to be select BU coins. The 1911-D is about a shade darker than it's companion in this two...
916The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,250.00
1911-D MS-60.
Singular contact marks, rather than abraded surfaces, lead to the conservative grade assessment. Both of Liberty's knees bear the brunt of such marks, and there are a couple of minor rim ticks to...
917The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$2,400.00
1911-D and 1915-S MS-62.
Quality for both of these gorgeous, lustrous Saints is a distinct touch above average due to pristine, undisturbed mark-free surfaces and vintage skin. The 1911-D is a full shade darker in ruddy-gold...
918The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,550.00
1911-D NGC MS-64.
Bluntly struck, which is common for the 1911-D, though the luster beams with pride.
919The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,700.00
1911-D NGC MS-64.
Fabulous, deep grapefruit-orange color drenches each side with original appeal, except for a dramatic shimmer of spearmint-green iridescence that beams across the space between Liberty's head and the...
920The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,500.00
1911-D NGC MS-64.
Swirling luster invites an appreciative glance, and the royal-golden tone is appealing. On the reverse, a faint greyish streak of tone stabs deftly into the eagle's leading wing, but this is merely...
853The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$1,500.00
1911-D PCGS MS-64.
A trifle pale and flatly struck at Liberty's torso. All fields are unusually clean for the MS-64 level, with a majority of the smallish bagmarks seemingly gathered on the reverse.
1253The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,400.00
1911-D PCGS MS-64.
Superior strike quality has imparted virtually full details everywhere, including nearly complete facial features. Frothy mint luster pervades across each side.
1254The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$2,100.00
1911-D PCGS MS-65.
Carrot-gold and deeply original, with a good strike. Housed in a PCGS green label holder.
1064The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,400.00
1911-D PCGS MS-64.
Certainly not a scarce issue, but this 1911-D, housed in a PCGS green label holder, is really a great coin. It has that instant "eye appeal" that is so desired in large gold coins, and the strike is...
1065The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,700.00
1911-D NGC MS-65.
An NGC no line slab houses a gem quality 1911-D Saint that leaves nothing on the table when it comes to grade. Perfect luster gyrates about untroubled fields, and to the naked eye, only a couple of...
1066The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,660.00
1911-D PCGS MS-65.
Superlative strike quality can be discerned by the prominent facial features which are virtually complete, right down to Liberty's eyeballs. Disturbance are limited to at most a couple of visible...
1138The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$2,900.00
1911-D, 1914-S and 1924 Saint-Gaudens double-eagles.
A snap-together holder houses three common Saint-Gaudens gold coins, one from each mint. Considering the low end coins that usually appear in such sets, these are certainly nicer than average....
1038The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$1,050.00
1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, NGC MS-63
Perfectly original and undipped, this common date issue seems somewhat nicer than the assigned grade of MS-63. Exceptionally unabraded and lacking any major marks or distractions, this coin merits...
1039The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$1,050.00
1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, PCGS MS-64
An excellent strike cooperates with prodigious mint luster to produce a coin of considerable charm. The Capitol is well defined, and Miss Liberty actually has all five toes in this rendition of St....
1041The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$2,675.00
1911-D and 1915-S Saint-Gaudens double-eagles, PCGS MS-65
Neither coin in this lot is a key date, but in the grade of MS-65, any Saint-Gaudens is a beautiful and desirable coin, and both of these are at least solid for the grade. The 1911-D has a terrific...
1042The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$2,400.00
1911-D Saint-Gaudens double-eagle, PCGS MS-66
A stunning "very gem" example of this otherwise common date. The luxuriant, silky surfaces are finely textured with satiny luster, and alluring lime-green color beckons from the amazingly clean...
1177The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$675.00
1911-D NGC MS-63.
A breathtaking golden hue radiates from this specimen's gleaming, textured surfaces. Although some trivial contact ticks are randomly strewn on this impressively struck double eagle, the visual...
1178The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$725.00
1911-D NGC MS-63.
This cataloger can find no unfavorable comments to make about this coin. It has attractive color, a strong strike, very few marks, and rolling luster -- everything expected of the conservative grade,...
1179The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$900.00
1911-D/D NGC MS-64.
This piece's attribution was incorrectly labeled by NGC. The label should read 1911-D/D FS-1911.5. It is listed as Breen 7383. Although it is not as elusive as his original determination, "Rare",...
1180The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$1,175.00
1911-D NGC MS-65.
An opulent orange-gold copiously blankets this handsome Denver Branch Mint issue. It is an impressively detailed piece with a splash of soft blue highlights supplementing its surfaces.
1181The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$2,000.00
1911-D PCGS MS-66.
The surfaces of this glowing orange-gold specimen project a velvetlike texture, suggesting a mattelike aspect. It is minimally marked on both the Eagle and on Liberty. The detailing is exceptional...
1066The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$575.00
1911-D NGC AU-58.
This gleaming Denver Mint specimen emits an intense yellow-gold glow. Just the barest hint of wear is detected on its highest design elements, and the minutest contact ticks are observed on its...
1067The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$950.00
1911-D NGC MS-64.
Magnificent luster complements this specimen's exceptional satinlike surfaces resulting in a marvelous visual aspect. A couple faint scuffs and a few strewn minute ticks are perceived by close...
475The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$600.00
1911-D MS-63.
Minimal marks for the assigned grade, but the flowing luster is a bit subdued on the obverse. Great reverse detail with all feathers being clear and distinct.
648The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$675.00
1911-D NGC MS-63.
This specimen's frosty luster is blanketed with a rose-gold aspect that manifests a glowing vibrancy. There is a sprinkling of contact ticks, with none being abrasive, on this handsome strike.
