1117The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$4,000.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-64 (rattler).
Sometimes, light hairlines bear responsibility for limiting a coin to the PF-64 level, but not many are really obvious in this case. Perhaps the few that do exist combined with slightly weak luster...
959The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,500.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-63.
Thrilling luster flashes through the fields, its potency slightly subdued by banana-gold patina. Several wispy hairlines are evident with a loupe, as are a few strikethroughs, but the most important...
1231The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$1,100.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-61.
Numerous hairlines align more or less in a horizontal direction across each side, and could very well be slidemarks from careless album storage. If not for their mischievous effect on grade, this...
1232The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$11,000.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-65.
Accents in multiple shades of golden color adorn each side, probably reflecting variation in alloy mixture, as these tiny gold coins were sometimes prone to copper spots and such (there are no such...
690The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$18,500.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. NGC MS-66 PL.
At best, perhaps a handful of Lewis and Clark gold dollars exist in numerically finer grade than this MS-66 PL example, but this is the finest certified with the "prooflike" designation. The...
710The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$1,800.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-63.
Glinting corn-gold patina displaces some of the underlying yellow surface color, but is not sufficiently prevalent to thoroughly suppress some hairlines that appear on either side of the portraits. ...
1284The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,900.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-63.
Seemingly absolutely unaffected by handling marks, yet a couple or so trivial hairlines can be seen traversing each side, possibly indicative of slide marks. Extensive luster and orange peel effect...
1096The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$1,400.00
1905 Lewis and Clark commemorative gold dollar, NGC MS-62
A seemingly conservative grade of just MS-62 belies considerable eye appeal generated by the prominent luster across both faces of this diminutive coin. Closer examination reveals a few vague...
1097The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$5,000.00
1905 Lewis and Clark commemorative gold dollar, NGC MS-64
A radiant piece that is tastefully accented with some orange peel effect at the margins. Perfect lemon-yellow color saturates the coin in its entirety, lending generous and balanced eye appeal to...
1219The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$1,200.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. NGC MS-62.
This coin looks like an MS-64 with a light vertical scratch on the date side. Always in demand, due to its low mintage, this commemorative will always be one of the keys.
1206The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$1,200.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. NGC MS-62.
A dazzling yellow-gold radiates from this specimen's sparkling surfaces. When utilizing a glass, a few indiscriminate ticks and delicate hairline are discerned, but nothing unexpected for an MS-62. ...
1207The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$5,750.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-64.
An exceedingly opulent orange-gold brilliance beams from this elusive gold commemorative. A minute toning speck appears above the "E" of "EXPOSITION" on the obverse, while the reverse has a barely...
1098The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$4,400.00
1905 Lewis & Clark. NGC MS-64.
This impressive example has glistening surfaces that explode with a golden brilliance. Some dainty hairlines become visible when a glass is used for its examination. A noteworthy detailed...

1905 Lewis & Clark. PCGS MS-64.
