Population of non-CC GSA Dollars

Does anyone know here this info can be found?

Also soft pack versus black cases?

Thanks!

  • The non-CC GSA hardpacks that have been graded are included in the NGC population reports, and the variety is designated as gsa. The total number released by the GSA was estimated as 28,000, but no one documented the number of each date included in the 28,000. One can estimate the total coins included for each date by looking at the number graded for each date. Here is a listing of the coins graded, by date, with the rarest first:

    1882-O 1
    1878-P 1
    1899-O 1
    1884-P 2
    1900-O 2
    1898-O 3
    1904-O 3
    1882-P 4
    1890-S 4
    1878-S 5
    1902-O 5
    1901-O 7
    1903-O 18
    1879-P 25
    1882-S 31
    1881-S 32
    1883-P 36
    1885-P 36
    1886-P 42
    1881-O 50
    1880-S 83
    1883-O 97
    1887-P 108
    1879-S 127
    1884-O 144
    1885-O 176

    The dates with the lowest number graded sell for the highest premiums. There are some dates that have not been graded yet. The dates with the most graded sell for the lowest premiums.

    There were 97,591 soft pack gsa coins packaged and sold. Again, no one knows how many coins of each date were included in the total.

    A detailed breakdown of quantities might be available in the NARA archive in College Park, Md. There is a thick, and very dull-looking file on the GSA silver dollar sales. Given GSAs love of counting things, it likely contains the information you want.

    I've been using this post from GSACollector for awhile as a reference. Does anyone happen to have the updated population report on these, or is the information available anyway without subscribing to NGC? Thanks

    My information tells me that the soft packs were sold in the "Potluck" sale of June 1st to
    July 31st, 1973. They sold for $3 each. No dates were recorded as far as numbers. That
    sale also included all the non-cc issued in hard packs at $5 each. All were sold during this
    period.

    Had a 1901-O at the show. It is still for sale if interested please email.

    Q: When does a collector become a numismatist?



    A: The year they spend more on their library than their coin collection.



    A numismatist is judged more on the content of their library than the content of their cabinet.
