Price history for items of the same classification:
Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
935The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$2,800.00
1896 and 1897-S, both NGC MS-62.
Similar mustard-gold patina cloaks each of this pair of common double eagles, and each is struck with dagger sharp details. Thicken the plot with intrigue and an international spy ring, and you have...
1158The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$1,276.00
1896 PCGS MS-62.
Abrasions on the portrait unquestionably affect the grade, and there are luster grazes in the fields, but the strike quality is outstanding. A small grease spot is noted next to "6" in the date.
833The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$1,150.00
1896 AU-55.
Minimal circulation has impacted the luster hardly at all, but wear is noticeable on the high points. AU-55, with excellent eye appeal for the grade.
1107The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,400.00
1896 PCGS MS-62.
Booming mint luster is complemented nicely by deep golden iridescence. Much finer in appearance than the conservative MS-62 grade, and surely worthy of upgrade consideration.
1042The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$1,050.00
1896 NGC MS-63.
This date glows with a lavishing yellow-gold exuberance. A few meager marks and scuffs meander over its satiny surfaces. Its design elements are extremely distinct.
