Who said all of the gold coins in the Richmond sale were shiny?

Check out my newp via Pinnacle/Doug Winter:



(I like the ugly/dirty ones!)

Is it just me, or pictures slow loading today?

If the Richmond Collection's owner's goal was to buy MS63's, where'd all the shiney MS64's come from?

Good pickup. I guess they weren't all shiney.

It must have slipped through NCS quality control.

What's the grade BTW???

You're right. That coin is NOT shiney.

Su-weet!!

By the way, for those of you who aren't into O-mint gold, the 1859-O eagle is (at least when Winter wrote his book on O-mint gold in 1992) the rarest no-motto New Orleans eagle, with an estimated population of 30-35.


I think this qualifies for a major YOU SUCK!

It's a pre-NCS 45!

Here's the pic from DLRC. They fail to highlight all the grunge on their photo:

You just gotta love those old crusty original southern mint gold coins. What a beauty. Congrats Robert.

DW currently estimates the population to be in the 50-60 range.

Hi RYK-Nice 59-0 $10 I just looked at Dougs web site and didnt see the 59-0 and wondered where it went then I saw it here, super nice coin, looks better than my AU55, I like the origional crusty look also!! The only coin I got from Richmond was the 40-0 $2 1/2 in 62 it is very origional and tonned real nice. the Richmond Collection had a few of these real origional crusty coins that must have escaped the crackout and dipping people!!
