1915'S' $50.00. Octagonal. Panama-Pacific Exposition. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$39,000.00
|
- virtually in the Choice category. The distinctive octagonal shape was a deliberate design link to the famous $50 Gold 'Slugs' struck during the Gold Rush by U.S. Assayer Augustus Humbert. This example presents mathematically exact corners without unsightly nicks. Fully lustrous surfaces are the result of careful preservation by caring hands. A glass finds a single tic on the cheek, a hairline... more |

1915'S' $50.00. Round. Panama-Pacific Exposition. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$55,000.00
|
- nearly fully Choice. Full strike and deep golden lustre testify to the high striking quality and boldest visual appeal of the massive Gold commemorative. This specimen's reeding is nearly sharp enough to shave with and neither marks nor hairlines worth mentioning interrupt its overwhelming beauty. Here is sculptor Robert Aitken's work at its satisfying best. Zerbe planned a mintage of 3,000... more |

1915'S' $2.50. Panama-Pacific Exposition. Gem Brilliant Uncirculated
|
GEM BU |
$8,000.00
|
A meticulous strike provides exceptional detail on the face, figure and caduceus held by Columbia. The defiant eagle displays unusually full feathers, and both sides of this extraordinary Gem are awash in the most satisfying deep gold lustre. |

1915'S' $1.00. Panama-Pacific Exposition. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
VERY CH BU |
$3,000.00
|
- a whisper away from fully Gem. Lustre is particularly full and blazing, highlighting a razor-sharp strike and resulting in a wealth of fine detail. The distance between this remarkable coin's assigned grade and full Gem is probably that of a single faint slide mark on the cheek. |

1915'S' 50¢. Panama-Pacific Exposition. Gem Brilliant Uncirculated
|
GEM BU |
$2,600.00
|
Fields and devices are satin-frosty silver bearing a suggestion of steely toning of the most exquisite delicacy. Old-gold circles the obverse rim, highlighting an unusually well detailed strike with exceptional face and drapery on the standing figure of Columbia. This sole Silver denomination for the exposition is frequently found weakly struck or circulated and this was long regarded... more |
