1898-S NGC MS-63, and 1899 NGC MS-63.
|
Samuel Robertson Gold Consignment. 1898-S features consistent medium-gold patina that cedes very subtly to slightly brighter color around Liberty’s portrait, while 1899 shows definite signs of... |
|
986 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012 | $1,500.00 |
1898-S ANACS MS-62.
|
MS-62 is the perfect grade, and the coin is in the most perfect sized slab yet invented -- the old ANACS holder. Booming luster with medium gold, and just the right number of tiny ticks to merit the... |
|
583 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $1,650.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-62 (rattler).
|
189 are each nicely repunched. Good, hard luster dominates the eye-appeal, trivially subdued by a hint of haze here and there. |
|
1203 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $2,400.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-64.
|
Lime-green iridescence provides lush eye-appeal to both sides, and is even more noticeable on the reverse as it drapes beautifully over the eagle's domain in a loving embrace. For a grade of just... |
|
937 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,450.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-62.
|
Fields are a little cleaner than expected for MS-62, although magnification reveals quite a few moderate abrasions on Liberty's portrait. A few unimportant residue stains can be seen near the lower... |
|
1240 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $1,700.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
One of the more available issues in the double-eagle series, but an example that is a touch above average for the grade. Untroubled fields are nicely complimented by relatively clean devices and... |
|
1048 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $1,175.00 |
1898-S NGC MS-61.
|
Strong mint luster is interrupted near the middle of the fields by the abrasions expected of an MS-61 grade. A depression in the lower field well left of the date is the result of a planchet flaw. |
|
1049 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $1,160.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-61.
|
Deep, russet-gold patina dominates a majority of the obverse and much of the reverse, though hints of pale gold peek through in areas. At first glance, this coin seems vastly undergraded, despite... |
|
1050 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $1,400.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-62.
|
Pronounced mint luster is diminished only on Liberty's cheek, which is mildly abraded. Housed in a PCGS rattler holder. |
|
1051 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $1,850.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-64.
|
Fantastic multi-spoked obverse mint luster activates this double-eagle as if were powered by bottled lightning. The dazzling, electric mint luster flows across both sides and animates the precisely... |
|
1108 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $1,425.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
A sprinkling of flyspecks pepper star six, and a few more show up elsewhere. Lightly oxidized, yet still filled with mint luster. |
|
1158 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $1,550.00 |
1898-S and 1900 NGC MS-62.
|
Despite identical grades, these coins are radically different in appearance. The 1898-S displays glistening surfaces with noticeable hints of prooflike character. This is one bright coin! The 1900,... |
|
1159 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $975.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
This sharply struck issue emits a warm orange glow from its velvetlike surfaces. For ascription identification, a light scrape appears in the field across from Liberty's profile, and a few ticks are... |
|
1151 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007 | $975.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
The grade of this San Francisco coin is undoubtedly determined by the presence of a few stray marks on Liberty's cheek and neck, but it is nicely struck, and the velvety surfaces enchant the viewer... |
|
460 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $1,050.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
Rolling luster can be observed on both the obverse and reverse of this attractive Double Eagle. It is not mark free, but for an MS-63 grade, it definitely appears PQ. |
|
589 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $900.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
Sharply struck with a warm orange-gold glow. A few minor and lightly scattered abrasions do hardly diminish its attractiveness. |
|
590 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $900.00 |
1898-S PCGS MS-63.
|
The velvetlike surfaces of this Double Eagle radiate a rich yellow-gold aspect. An insignificant sprinkling of ticks, and a couple of stray contact marks and light abrasions, are mainly obscured by... |
|
591 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $1,300.00 |
1898-S NGC MS-63+.
|
This coin has the luster and strike of an MS-65, unfortunately there are some bag marks that are holding it back. Its color is bright and attractive. |
|
592 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006 | $850.00 |
1898-S NGC MS-63.
|
Radiating a warm yellow-gold, this superbly struck Double Eagle has a vivid visual aspect. This minimally marked and sharply struck San Francisco issue makes it a favorable type specimen. |
|
1209 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006 | $625.00 |
1898-S NGC MS-62.
|
An amazing Double Eagle housed in an old NGC holder. The fields are semi-prooflike, and the devices are needle sharp. |
|
1210 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006 | $800.00 |
1898-S NGC MS-63.
|
A wonderful orange-gold radiance exudes from this Double Eagle's satiny surfaces. Some light ticks and abrasions precluded it from being assigned a higher grade level. Both the stars and the central... |
