Lots of awesome gold rarities in the Heritage North Shore sale at the FUN show. Here is some info.
World-class collection of US gold rarities.
A complete set of early Eagles, 1795-1804, in mint state condition. The fourteen-piece set is complete by Guide Book variety, and each coin is Uncirculated. Not content to simply collect by date, the consignor also included the very rare 1795 9 Leaves in MS60 PCGS and 1798/7 7x6 Stars variety in MS62 PCGS.
A complete set of Charlotte Mint Half Eagles, including many "finest known," and rarities such as the 1840-C (MS60 NGC), 1842-C Small Date (MS61 NGC), 1844-C (MS62 NGC), and 1846-C (MS62 PCGS). Nine other dates are certified as MS64 by either NGC or PCGS. This is an uncommon opportunity for Southern branch mint gold specialists.
A very high grade set of Saint-Gaudens Double Eagles, missing only the 1927-D and 1933, and including a High Relief certified as Proof-67.
A complete set of Liberty Double Eagles in high grade, missing only the 1856-O, but including all of the Proof-only issues. The ultra-rare 1854-O is graded AU58 by NGC, and is tied for the finest known. The legendary 1870-CC is graded AU53 by PCGS, and is the single highest certified by that service. A Branch Mint Proof 1907-D, ex-Farouk, grading PR-62, and an AU58 1861-S Paquet Reverse are also included.
Many other individual gold rarities, including a 1848 CAL Quarter Eagle grading MS-67 and a 1796 No Stars Quarter Eagle grading MS-62.
Check out the pics online.
If anyone is a subscriber to the Heritage auction catalogs and either (1) is not interested in bidding on this sale or (2) is willing to give up their catalog after the sale, I would be greatly interested in one for my library. I've started a focus on US Gold coins and this would be a great reference. If you have one that you are willing to give up, I'll be glad to pay $20 for your time and shipping charges. Book rate shipping is cheap ($3). They want $50 and that's pretty steep. I don't need it before the sale as I've got funds tied up in other activities. If you can help out, please PM me. Thanks!
