Lot # Description Grade Hammer Price 5396 1850 AU-58 (NGC) (see below) $5,000.00 A splendid example, this piece is quite beautiful in its appearance—sharply struck, with bright yellow gold surfaces and with eye appeal. The piece has seen some limited circulation, as reflected by the grading number, but is far choicer than normally seen with this numerical assignment. If you are seeking a piece for a type set, investigate this carefully.The S.S. Republic was lost...  more 5397 1855 AU-50 (NGC) (see below) $1,000.00 Light yellow gold surfaces, probably indicating that metal from California was used. Nice strike. 5398 1863-S MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $15,200.00 Highly lustrous honey gold with distinctive olive iridescence. Bright yellow cartwheels spin broadly on the satiny surfaces. The strike is bold and the eye appeal is superb, and all the requirements of the grade are met here, and then some! A fairly rare date in Mint State grades, this despite the emergence of dozens of examples brought to the numismatic marketplace in recent times from the recovered...  more 5399 1870-S AU-55 (PCGS) (see below) $1,100.00 Pleasing yellow gold surfaces. Significant lustre remains, most prominently on the reverse. 5400 1873 Open 3. MS-61 (NGC) (see below) $1,200.00 A lustrous, attractive example at this grade level, with better quality than usually seen. The 1866-1876 variety is quite scarce, relatively speaking, as such coins were struck too late to be included in the notable treasure ships that have been recovered. If we were a stockbroker we would recommend this as a "buy," after which you should "hold." 5401 1876-S AU-58 (NGC) (see below) $550.00 Light yellow gold surfaces have a high degree of reflectivity, particularly on the reverse. When first struck this piece must have been very impressive! 5402 Pair of NGC-certified Mint State double eagles: (see below) $1,000.00 * 1894 Liberty. MS-60. Rich rose-gold surfaces with some verdigris noted mostly on the reverse * 1908 Saint-Gaudens. No Motto. MS-62. Golden orange surfaces with traces of olive gold at the peripheries. (Total: 2 pieces) 5403 1897 MS-62 (PCGS) (see below) $525.00 Light yellow surfaces with satiny lustre. Bagmarks are plentiful on the obverse, scarcer on the reverse. 5404 1898 MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $1,600.00 Sharply struck and with satiny lustre, this is a very nice example at the MS-62 level. Quite affordable. 5405 1898-S MS-62 (PCGS) (see below) $525.00 Sharply struck and brilliant. Satiny lustre with some hints of prooflike surface on the reverse. 5406 1900 MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $1,175.00 Brilliant with satiny or creamy lustre. Nicely struck. 5407 1900-S MS-61 (PCGS) (see below) $900.00 Sharply struck, brilliant, and lustrous. One of the more available dates in the series. 5408 1904 MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $525.00 Brilliant, lustrous, and sharply struck. 5409 1904 MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $625.00 Especially brilliant, nicely struck, and attractive overall—nicer than usually seen with the MS-62 designation. 5410 1904 MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $525.00 Orange gold surfaces. About par for MS-62. Nicely struck, this being the case for most double eagles of this particular date. 5411 1904-S MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $525.00 Sharply struck, brilliant, and lustrous. 5412 1906-S MS-62 (PCGS) (see below) $550.00 Well struck, brilliant, and with satiny lustre. 5413 1907-S Liberty. MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $3,500.00 Nicely struck and with rich lustre, this is the San Francisco version of the last year of the design. Surfaces are mainly light yellow with splashes of orange. Contact marks are typical for the assigned grade. Categories  •  Stack's October 2005 Atlanta Expo → U. S. Coins → U. S. Double Eagles ($20.00 Gold) → U. S. St. Gaudens Double Eagles Lot # Description Grade Hammer Price 5414 1908 No Motto. MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $675.00 Brilliant with rich lustre. Better struck than typically seen for this issue. A very nice coin that apparently is not from the Wells Fargo Hoard. 5415 1908 No Motto. MS-63 (NGC) (see below) $600.00 Brilliant, lustrous, and quite well struck. 5416 1908 No Motto. MS-60 (PCGS) (see below) $480.00 Lightly toned with some hints of iridescence. Some light striking at the center of the obverse. 5417 1908-D No Motto. MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $1,600.00 Brilliant, lustrous, and with somewhat above average strike. Not rare, but essential for inclusion in a type set. 5418 1909-S MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $1,000.00 Brilliant and lustrous. 5419 1909-S MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $1,000.00 Brilliant and lustrous. 5420 1909-S MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $525.00 Brilliant, lustrous, and nicely struck. 5421 1910-S MS-65 (NGC) (see below) $6,000.00 Brilliant and lustrous. Among the higher graded pieces by NGC. Contact marks are seen on both sides and have been factored into the grade. 5422 1910-S MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $1,500.00 Lustrous with light toning. Extensive bagmarks on both sides, fairly evenly distributed. 5423 1910-S MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $1,400.00 Brilliant, lustrous, and especially nice within the assigned grade. The present catalogue offers the opportunity to add to or to begin a set of Saint-Gaudens double eagles by date and mint, something within the reach of quite a few collectors so far as the early part of this series goes (1907 through 1916). The later years, 1920 onward, are studded with rarities, but still include many...  more 5424 1910-S MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $1,500.00 Brilliant and lustrous. A coin with the appeal of a slightly higher grade, but with a couple scratches in the right obverse field, suggesting that the MS-64 designation is about on target. Such coins are meant to be used, and extensively, and were not handled with care during the mintage and distribution process. 5425 1910-S MS-64 (PCGS) (see below) $1,550.00 Attractive lustre and a fairly nice strike combine to yield a very pleasing MS-64 example of this popular early San Francisco variety.
