1031 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $275.00 |
1927 NGC MS-62.
|
Modest reflectivity projects medium-gold luster and decent eye-appeal for MS-62. When looking for defects, use a strong loupe, but be careful -- objects in slab are closer than they appear. |
|
1032 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $275.00 |
1927 NGC MS-62.
|
Young Bonnie Lass Collection. Sharply struck and slightly glossy, each side displays rather nice cartwheel action. Tiny scrapes and a reed mark on the cheekbone probably limit the grade. |
|
1033 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $525.00 |
1927 and 1928, both NGC MS-62.
|
Young Bonnie Lass Collection. Aside from the dates, one could scarcely imagine more twin-similar quarter-eagles. Both gleam with identical medium gold patina, and even the strikes correlate nicely,... |
|
951 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $290.00 |
1927 AU.
|
Chantilly Lace Collection. AU details but likely modestly cleaned at one time. And this kind of insight is why they call us professionals. |
|
952 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $240.00 |
1927 PCGS AU-58.
|
An obvious candidate for the PCGS "everyman" registry, one can scarcely locate the friction or rub that elicits an AU-58 grade. Perhaps tiny, shallow oval ticks in the obverse left field were deemed... |
|
953 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $450.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-63.
|
Hands-down nicer than the average MS-63, this delightful common date retains deeply original, multi-hued patina and terrific sharpness. This should be a lock for MS-64 if not for a tiny dark planchet... |
|
954 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2014 on 07/18/2014 | $475.00 |
1927 NGC MS-63+.
|
Simply nice and easy on the eyes, with the grade level ascertained by a cluster of tiny ticks off to the obverse left. Excellent straw-gold color and pleasing texture. |
|
1070 | The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013 | $363.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-62.
|
Frosty like a cool mountain stream. Natural as the fresh valley air. Golden like the sun setting over the distant hills. Anyone else want to go the mountains this weekend? |
|
1115 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013 | $380.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-62.
|
Samuel Robertson Gold Consignment. Slightly pale with a series of linear abrasions over the eagle's back. The reverse may be lightly wiped on the left side, accounting for the grade. |
|
1116 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013 | $975.00 |
1927 and 1929, both PCGS MS-63.
|
Like peas in a pod (golden peas, of course) (in a golden pod, of course), these appear identical aside from different dates (1927 and 1929). Actually, the latter coin may present slightly better... |
|
912 | The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012 | $600.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-63.
|
Apricot patina cedes to a very subtle dash of citrus-orange toning across the headdress feathers, while the dominant apricot color colors the entire reverse. A little flatly struck on the obverse,... |

860 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012 | $1,300.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-64.

430 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $390.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-62.
|
Khaki-gold with excellent sharpness. Technical analysis alone would lead to consideration for at least a point higher grade, but there is a sharp hairline up the Indian's portrait. Further, a couple... |
|
431 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $360.00 |
1927 NGC MS-62.
|
Powerfully detailed and brilliant, with a touch of texture shift only on the Indian's cheek. There are no complaints at all for the assigned MS-62 grade. |
|
432 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $825.00 |
1927 NGC MS-63.
|
Perfectly graded, with a strong obverse that easily meets any reasonable standard for MS-63 or better. There is a pair of small digs just in front of the eagle's breast, but nothing else detracts... |
|
433 | The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011 | $1,300.00 |
1927 NGC MS-64 CAC.
|
Superior sharpness helps support the MS-64 grade, with the design elements dominated by attractive matte texture. Intriguing raised lines in the fields are the remnants of die polish, yet the... |
|
1057 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $725.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-63.

1927 PCGS MS-63.

1059 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011 | $650.00 |
1927 NGC MS-63+.
|
Surfaces are ablaze with golden brilliance, and shimmer with an effect quite unusual for sunken-relief gold. On account of some abrasions and scattered hairlines, quality overall doesn't really seem... |
|
1001 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $340.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-61.
|
Excessively pale surfaces instantly validate the lesser uncirculated grade provided by PCGS. Strike and planchet quality are of average appearance. |
|
1002 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $625.00 |
1927 NGC MS-63.
|
Gorgeous detail and pleasing surface preservation suggest high-end quality for MS-63, and there is just a suitably limited supply of the normal planchet marks associated with the series. A tiny green... |

766 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010 | $400.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-62.
|
Somewhat pale in appearance, with a look that is suitable only up to the MS-62 grade. The expected planchet abrasions are clearly present everywhere, with an additional pin scratch apparent through... |
|
767 | The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010 | $600.00 |
1927 NGC MS-63.
|
Enthusiasts who have collected incused gold for awhile know that variation in quality is typical within any specific numeric grade for examples of this series. It just so happens that this is an... |
|
1117 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $380.00 |
1927 NGC MS-62.
|
Probably above average overall, but a small singular mark above the Indian's brow is noticeably ragged under a loupe. |
|
1118 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $700.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-63.
|
This is an attractive coin for the grade, with just about the perfect limited allotment of contact marks for MS-63, and lustrous surfaces that boast gratifying corn-yellow gold color. Preventing... |

1119 | The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009 | $685.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-63.

1927 PCGS MS-64.
|
Plentiful mint frost harmonizes with prodigious cartwheel luster to produce a gold coin that closely approaches the appearance of a full gem. Indeed, a glass is required to discover the typical marks... |

1927 PCGS MS-64.

889 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $350.00 |
1927 PCGS MS-62.
|
A little better than average for MS-62, with glittering fields and a decent strike. |

890 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $1,200.00 |
1927 and 1928 NGC MS-63.
|
The 1927 is densely layered with a generous supply of powder-gold patina, which diminishes the presence of the few mild blemishes. The 1928 is more typically brilliant, though also glazed with... |

891 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009 | $925.00 |
1927 NGC MS-64.

1927 NGC MS-64.

1927 Indian quarter-eagle, MS-62

1927 Indian quarter-eagle, MS-63
|
