I agree, for the last 3 years I've been casually assembling a date set for these. I didn't plan on it, it just sort of happened!

A nice example of a very tough and underrated date. Nice color!
It is nice that we have quite a few collectors here appreciative of these very scarce to downright rare early S mint gold pieces. They tend to slip under many collectors' radars because very few collectors can afford to collect Liberty Head gold by date and mintmark. For authentic US gold coins with fewer than 100 known examples, they really offer great value.
they wont be affordable for ever, I think the problem isn't that some are so rare is that they are all almost impossibly rare. If on a few were there would be mint mark runs but a S run is only possible for maybe a dozen whales

Purchased this from Andy several years ago.
Lovely cameo look with leaves and wreath. Much better date.
Thank you SKC.
Here's my other 1872, can you tell which one is the proof and which one is the business strike?
The other one

Ah. LOL. I was in Colorado Springs over the summer on a professional tour of Colorado and Utah. For the two days I was there, the museum was closed. The Bass wing was never to open again after a few more weeks. @#$%&!

I'm not "Liking" the fact that you didn't get to go lol...just acknowledgeing. Bummer!
At some point soonish I'll be posting images of almost every coin that was on display in the Bass Gallery.
I made many visits over the years (I live an hour away) so I decided to document most of it a couple weeks before it was removed.Coins are Neato!

These are all rare coins in their elevated grades. The BU-61 coins are all approaching or are in condition census, not to mention CAC'ed!
This group comes from an amazing PCGS set, where each coin has notable eye appeal and the effort has been many years in the making. There are very few sets with coins of these grades and quality!

There are so many scarce gold coins during this time. I wonder why the mint even made some of them?1869 $5.00 Mintage 1760
1872 $5.00 Mintage 1660
1869 and 1872 $5.s are tough to find in any condition but these are exceptional.
I love the old PCGS holder housing the 1869.
