Lot # | Auction | Current Bid or Hammer Price | Description |
985 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $875.00 |
1854 Type 1 MS-60, 1855 Type 2 AU, and an 1856 Type 3 AU.
|
The 1854 gold dollar displays a tiny scratch beneath the chin or else it might grade higher. AU-50 or so should apply to the difficult type-2 1855 gold dollar as it exhibits beige-yellow luster and... |
|
986 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $725.00 |
1854 Type 1 NGC MS-63.
|
MCA Set. Technically superior to MS-63 except for a couple of light hairline scratches right above Liberty's brow. An immaculate beauty, perfect, consistent medium gold layers each side in satin... |
|
899 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $625.00 |
1854 Type 1. NGC MS-63.
|
Needle-sharp on the obverse, especially within the finely delineated strands of hair, the reverse shows a hint of shallow definition only on the date, with "854" slightly weak to the unaided eye. ... |
|
1037 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $625.00 |
1854 Type 1. PCGS MS-63.
|
Modestly aged dies still managed to produce fantastic overall detail, with the stars erupting nearly to full points all around the portrait. Central details appear sharp and full. A single small... |
|
865 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $600.00 |
1854 Type 1. NGC MS-62.
|
One can only guess that this must be as original as a gold coin can get, as prominent crumbles of die grease remain entangled within the design elements. Strong definition includes a rather bold date... |
|
986 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $240.00 |
1854 Type 1. PCGS AU-58.
|
Indistinguishable from MS-62, which is typical of these tiny gold pieces. Lots of grimy greasy dirt is embedded in the reverse details and places the coin close to "dirty gold" status. |
|
987 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $450.00 |
1854 Type 2. PCGS Genuine/Filed Rims (blue label) and 1855 Type 2....
|
The goopy PCGS insert prevents inspection of the allegedly filed rims of the 1854 gold dollar, but there are certainly no obvious distractions otherwise, and overall appearance is that of AU-50 or so.... |
|
766 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $675.00 |
Three 1854 Type 1. MS-60/obverse scratch and two AU details/cleaned.
|
Minor impairment affects each of these 1854 gold dollars, though they face up as nice, lustrous pieces upon first glance. Personal inspection is encouraged for this three coin lot. |
|
767 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,500.00 |
1854 Type 1. PCGS MS-64.
|
Eye appeal begins with strike quality that is well above average on both sides and includes virtually full definition in Liberty's hair and at every leaf in the wreath. Terrific luster benefits from... |
|
696 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010 | $350.00 |
1854 Type 1. PCGS MS-62.
|
Frosty and lustrous, with better apparent eye appeal than might be expected of MS-62 and attractive patina. Under magnification, a dig can be seen in the lower lobe of Liberty's hair bun, and that... |
|
851 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $130.00 |
1854 Type 1. MS-60/lightly scratched.
|
Two scratches through Liberty's hair detract from what would otherwise be an uncirculated type coin. |
|
874 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $150.00 |
1854 Type 1 MS-60, scratched.
|
An uncertified mint state 1854 gold dollar that has two regrettable scratches through Liberty's hair. |
|
875 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $925.00 |
1854 Type 1. NGC MS-63.
|
Housed in a no line NGC holder is this deeply basined and remarkably attractive semi-prooflike "type one" gold dollar. Both sides gleam with smooth reflectivity, and the strike is unexpectedly sharp... |
|
810 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $475.00 |
1854 gold dollar, ANACS AU-58 details, cleaned
|
The ANACS grade assessment suitably captures the essence of this "Type 1" coin's appearance. A rather dull, pasty patina subdues a plethora of hairlines to some extent, but this coin is clearly not... |
|
811 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $725.00 |
1854 gold dollar Type 1. MS-63
|
An incredibly deeply struck example of on otherwise common issue, exceptional razor sharp detail abounds despite the limited canvas space available on this tiny coin. Gorgeous mint luster percolates... |
|
812 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $1,150.00 |
1854 gold dollar Type 1. MS-63.
|
Nearly identical in appearance to the other example of this date in the sale. They even share the same die crack on the reverse. |
|
919 | The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007 | $320.00 |
1854 Type 1. NGC MS-62.
|
Heavily die-clashed, a banana yellow color, and a highly detailed strike. The clashing of the dies produced a couple of nice die cracks on the obverse. |
|
272 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $235.00 |
1854 Type 2. VF+.
|
Much brighter than you might expect from a VF, and perhaps we are being a little conservative with assigning that grade, but some rim imperfections and nicks would not be acceptable to those wanting a... |
|
273 | The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006 | $280.00 |
1854 Type 1. PCGS MS-62.
|
This example's velvety surfaces emit an intense yellow-gold glow. A few scattered scuffs and stray hairlines are detected when using a glass. The strike exhibits very sharp design definition. |
