Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
1072The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$850.00
1901 NGC MS-63.
Slightly pale overall, but exceedingly well defined, as the stars pop up with full central details, and the eagle's talons display perfect segmentation. Booming luster guarantees "choice"...
1200The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$1,650.00
1901 PCGS MS-64+ CAC.
Stickers, pluses, slabs and all manner of lucky charms should conjure up adequate assurances as to the quality of this 10-dollar eagle. Besides that, it's a pretty nice coin. Fields show as clean,...
1201The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$1,550.00
1901 NGC MS-64+ CAC.
The reverse looks exceptionally nice, with gorgeous wintergreen-blue toning prominently displayed in the peripheral areas, while the obverse retains even gold color overall, with richer tint on the...
964The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$1,000.00
1901 PCGS MS-63.
Possibly a bit flat for the strike, since the curl over Liberty's ear doesn't show internal separation of the two strands.
938The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,550.00
1901 PCGS MS-61 (rattler), and a 1906-D PCGS MS-60 (rattler).
Lacking any visible marks, 1901 appears much nicer than the assigned MS-61, but a good loupe brought to bear on the surfaces will reveal plentiful horizontal hairlines traversing the portrait. A lot...
939The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$2,700.00
1901 NGC MS-65.
A 1901 gold eagle graded MS-65 by NGC. The population report shows 623 at MS-65, and 66 higher for this date. From Anne Marie's Type Gold Gems.
1149The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$800.00
1901 NGC MS-62.
Struck with authority, but with average surfaces for the grade, and only modest luster. A number of tiny ticks are to be expected, and under a loupe, several tiny flecks of carbon scatter about the...
1150The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,750.00
1901 PCGS MS-64.
Dazzling luster penetrates the fields and invigorates subtle hints of pastel blue and peach toning. Liberty's portrait is faintly frosted, yielding a touch of cameo effect, though the reverse is...
897The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$1,250.00
1901 and 1907-D AU.
Both are practically fully lustrous, with 1901 displaying a couple of mild copper stains. 1907 has one copper spot on the reverse far right. Two coin lot.
898The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$725.00
1901 NGC MS-62.
Use of a loupe is unnecessary to appreciate the extreme sharpness of the reverse, although the very center of the obverse is not quite as well defined. This coin features attractive patina and an...
1121The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$700.00
1901 PCGS MS-62.
Abrasions are a bit more prevalent on the reverse of this rather pale gold eagle. At the low end of MS-62, but in this value range, one point in grade is hardly something to quibble over for a common...
848The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,350.00
1901 Liberty eagle MS-60/scratched and 1912 Indian eagle AU.
A lengthy pinscratch droops across the reverse of the 1901 eagle. Its 1912 companion has all the appearance of an uncirculated grade, save patchy friction on Liberty's lower portrait. Two coin lot.
850The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$750.00
1901 PCGS MS-62.
Draped in rich shades of plush royal gold, original quality is unmistakable. Liberty's portrait is modestly affected by the tiny ticks that are ubiquitous for the MS-62 grade level. Housed in a PCGS...
813The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$1,950.00
1901 NGC MS-64.
Plush, original patina has descended nicely upon both faces of this lovely 1901 gold eagle, providing the vintage look that is so desirable in large gold coins. The dusky layer of toning helps to...
1017The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$750.00
1901 PCGS MS-62.
A bit above average for the grade, as the abrasions typically seen are limited to only very tiny blemishes. Accurately struck with nearly every star fully detailed.
1057The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,150.00
1901 NGC MS-63.
Satiny fields yield soft mint luster, and the surface quality is certainly above average for just the "choice" grade level. Rather finer than the grade implies, with no significant blemishes.
1099The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$345.00
1901 NGC MS-61.
This well-defined twentieth century first year of issue exhibits admirable orange-gold hues. The observed marks on its satiny surfaces are not abusive and are consistent with the grade level...
1100The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$3,800.00
Ten 1901 PCGS MS-62. OGH.
This lot is proof positive that one can never have too many 1901 gold eagles laying around in old green-label PCGS holders. Wouldn’t you rather carry around a pocketful of heavy, solid, all-American...
518The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$1,000.00
1901 NGC MS-63.
An appealing Philadelphia Mint example from the first year of the twentieth century. The delicate yellow-gold surfaces exhibit a sparse number of marks for this distinguished strike.
1150The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$800.00
1901 NGC MS-63.
A brilliant and lustrous specimen that has sharp definition. There are some light surface marks, but they are nearly obliterated by this coin's radiance.
1151The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$550.00
1901 MS-63.
Some will look at the wonderfully clean surfaces and ponder why it is not cataloged as an MS-64. The reason is that the luster, though bright, might not be quite bright enough for that grade. The...
