California Fractional
	1859 BG-705	MS64	NGC 4712009008	Choice	$2250	New February 25! Baltimore Show Price Reduction! BG-705, Condition Census Grade, Bold Reflective Luster, Abrasion Free, Conservatively Graded, Tiny PCGS Population for Variety. Stocking California Fractional gold is an important event due to early gold rush significance and private issue. The booming gold rush years left local merchants with a lack of small denomination coinage. The San Francisco mint did not ramp $1 coin production until 1854 and only with a meager 14,600 mintage to support local commerce. As a result, local jewelry shop owners began striking and issuing private gold in small denominations. Most were struck with anvil and hammer leading to uneven strikes. This 1859 BG-705 offering is exceptional given the example is a top pop grade and so well preserved. PCGS has only graded fourteen (14) total examples with one piece at the MS64 level. Both sides offer bold reflective luster from mirrored fields. Obverse devices are crudely engraved with most stars being blobs. The obverse die is heavily clashed with a reverse die from another 25c fractional design. Reverse design is also poorly executed with crude wreath elements and weak denomination and date. Edge denticles are well raised and sharp. Conservatively graded and housed in new large font NGC holder. From a Massachusetts consignor.
	1864 BG-735	AU55	raw	Original	$235	Copper Gold Coloring, Sharp Rims, Problem Free Surfaces, Southern Maine Collection. A strictly original California Fractional quarter dollar with uniform copper gold toning. Rims are sharp and actual wear is minimum. I believe the assigned AU55 grade is fair for the overall appearance and quality. Off the market for several decades. An eclectic offering from the Southern Maine Collection.

	1851-O	MS61	NGC 3883990001	Choice	$750	Mirrored Fields, Eye Appeal, Choice Original, Better New Orleans Strike.. A popular Type 1 design strike given the opportunity to own a New Orleans mint issue at slightly above a comparable Philadelphia issue. Mintage is low at 290,000. Fields are mirrored and sharply reflective under a light source. This piece is properly graded at MS61, on a technical basis, due to some obverse hairlines but in hand eye appeal is that of a higher grade. This is why this 1851-O gold dollar was added to GFRC inventory. Housed in newer NGC holder with some plastic lines that appear on the GFRC image. Believe me, this is a nice example for the grade.
	1853	MS62	raw	Choice	$290	Choice Original, Satiny Luster, Decent Strike, Southern Maine Collection. Satiny luster and mint state surfaces are the highlight of this 1853 Type 1 Liberty head gold dollar. Off the market for multiple decades and completely fresh. From the Southern Maine Collection.

This brilliant frosty Type 1 example offers vibrant cartwheels and a strong strike. Surfaces are choice and toned a greenish-gold.

$1 - Type 2 Indian Princess
	1856-S	AU58+	NGC 4626472007	Choice	$6850	Double S Mintmark, Type 2 Design, First San Francisco Mint Struck Gold $1, Near Gem Original, Orange Gold Patina, Frosty Luster, Osprey Collection. 1856 San Francisco struck $1 gold pieces are the final Type 2 design issue, and was the only issue of that design from the San Francisco Mint. The mintage is only 24,600 pieces, which is divided roughly evenly between normal and repunched mintmark varieties. The repunched variety is known as the "Double S" variety with the first S punched high and to the right, and then only partially affaced. These two reverses share the same obverse die, identified by its diagonal crack from the ear to the U in UNITED. This marvelous Double S mintmark offering from the Osprey Collection is pleasing with smooth orange-gold surfaces and tons of frosty luster. Surfaces are blemish free with just a hint of rub at the highest cheek point. Housed in new large font NGC holder with edge view insert.

Mintage for the 1861 Type 3 Indian Princess is 527,150 but survival rates are quite low. PCGS population report indicates slightly under 1300 holdered in all grades. I could not pass up this lovely AU55 example for GFRC inventory. Surfaces are perfectly original and covered with copper gold patina. Residual orange gold luster is exposed when viewing under a light source. There are no blemishes to report; just a wholesale Type 3 Indian Princess with light wear. A quality type coin that is accurately graded and housed in older NGC holder with standard ring insert.

Let's start with a tiny mintage of 5,000 pieces. Then there is conservative grading and CAC approval at the MS63 grade level. How about frosty cartwheel luster that just radiates off the obverse and reverse surfaces? Bottomline, this is a gem example at the assigned NGC grade and worthy of the asking price. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
	1889	MS64+	PCGS 83973646	Gem	$1065	Gem Original, Vibrant Satiny Cartwheel Luster, Heavy Reverse Strike Doubling, Fully Struck, Accurately Graded. 1889 is the last year of issue for $1 gold with an ending mintage of 28,950. Examples are typically found with vibrant frosty luster and complete strikes as is the case for this lovely offering. Rims are boldly strike and high. Surfaces are blemish free other than a faint line to the right of the lower bust that appears to be a lint mark and not post mint contact. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder with no auction records. CAC approval rewards originality, accurate grading and eye appeal. Yet another quality gold offering from GFRC.
$2.5 Classic Head
	1837	AU58	NGC 4486610001	Choice	$3650	Low Mintage Date, Scarce Grade, Orange Gold Patina, Choice Original, Lightly Mirrored Fields, Reflective Luster, Accurately Graded. Low mintage of only 45,080 and scarce in higher grades. PCGS population report shows only ten pieces at the AU58 grade level with a sharp drop off in mint state population. This example is really sweet and desirable. Surfaces are lightly mirrored consistent with being struck from freshly polished dies. Reflective cartwheel luster is bold and crisp. Obverse strike is typical with a few weakly impressed stars while the reverse is fully struck. A close 10x loupe inspection revealed no blemish worth mentioning.

Please give this lovely 1837 $2.5 quarter eagle offering special consideration.
$2.5 Liberty
	1843-O Large Date	AU50	PCGS 20254221	Original	$1750	Large Date, Rare New Orleans Issue, Original Surfaces, Accurately Graded, Osprey Collection. 1843-O Large Date quarter eagle strikes are the second rarest New Orleans quarter in terms of its overall rarity and in the top three for the series when considering higher graded. This is a no question special offering at the AU50 grade level. Most examples come weakly struck and this piece is typical in terms of strike. Surfaces are known to be abraided but this example is essentially blemish free and attractive. Housed in older PCGS blue label holder with standard ring insert. A top quality offering from the Osprey Collection that deserves special attention.

	1847	AU55	PCGS 81735764	Original	$925	Scarce and Underrated Date, Low Mintage, Original Surfaces, Residual Luster, Accurately Graded. A scarce and underrated date with mintage of only 29,814. AU55 is the last "affordable grade" before graded population numbers drop quickly with resulting rapid price increases. PCGS has graded only 13 in AU55 and another 5 at AU58. This 1847 Philadelphia strike is strictly original with residual luster. Accurately graded and housed 2015 style PCGS holder. An important early date Liberty design offering to consider.
	1851	EF45	raw	Choice	$300	Early Date, Choice Original, Copper Gold Patina, Southern Maine Collection. An early date $2.5 quarter eagle that has been well preserved while in the Southern Maine Collection for several decades. Surfaces are choice and covered with uniform copper gold patina. Strike is typical for the issue. A bold die crack connects the bottom of date digits to the nearly denticles and so reminds me of the 1852 F-110b Seated dime die break location. Reverse has a well hidden diagonal line in the shield that is mentioned for 100% accuracy. A nice example that is fairly priced.
	1852	MS62	PCGS 34114532	Choice	$435	Choice Original, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Fully Struck, Conservative Grading, Southern Maine Collection. This Southern Maine gold piece is freshly graded at PCGS and just back into GFRC inventory. I had originally graded this lovely 1852 quarter eagle as an MS62 but the grading gurus have an AU58 opinion. Regardless, the surfaces are so choice with swirling frosty luster. Strike is completed impressed and adds to overall eye appeal. Conservative grading on this choice original example. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder. Off the market for several decades.
	1852	MS62	NGC 3701358001	Choice	$650	Early Liberty Quarter Eagle Gold, Choice Original, Reflective Cartwheel Luster, Die Polish Lines, Accurately Graded. Reflective cartwheel luster and a bold obverse strike are the highlights of this lovely 1852 quarter eagle. This lovely gold piece performs well under a bright light else I would not have added to GFR C inventory. Fields are lightly mirrored with a host of die polish lines on both obverse and reverse. Blemishes are to a minimum for the assigned MS62 grade level. This example was a no brainer CAC approval due to strict originalty and overall preservation state. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert with CAC approval.

Another quality Liberty gold offering from the Osprey Collection

A quality pre Civil War example lightly mirrored fields and reflective luster. Surfaces offer few abraisons and are attractive. Strike is crisply executed.

	1857-O	EF45	PCGS 28237636	Choice	$735	Choice Original, Port Matilda Collection. Historically significant as the final Liberty quarter eagle issue from the New Orleans mint with small mintage of 34,000. Strikes are chronically weak for the date. The obverse center and eagle's lower left leg are problematic strike areas while obverse stars are well formed. This example, from the Port Matilda Collection, is typical in terms of strike while surfaces are free of any significant abrasions; abrasions are an issue for this date as many come from an excavation finding in Jackson, Tennessee. Surfaces are covered with uniform copper gold patina which validates the originality. A quality offering that is fairly graded and housed in 2013 generation PCGS holder along with CAC approval.
	1861 New Reverse	MS64	PCGS 25222746	Choice	$2250	Choice Original, Satiny Cartwheel Luster, Accurately Graded, Osprey Collection. Housed in 2014 generation PCGS holder. More top quality US gold offerings from the Osprey Collection

PCGS population report indicates only 8 graded at the AU53 level and 9 additional at AU55. At the AU55 grade level, prices start to move up quickly for the date. This AU53 specimen provides fair value as accurately graded along with blemish free surfaces. Overall, this example is nicely balanced with strictly original surfaces that offer classic old time copper toning. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
	1868	AU55	PCGS 83145451	Original	$1000	Low Mintage Date, Original Surfaces, Satiny Cartwheel Luster, Fully Struck, Oregon Beaver Collection. 1868 Philadelphia strikes have a tiny mintage of only 3,600 but are not as scarce as would be expected.

This well preserved example offers mildly reflective fields and luster. Strike is completely executed with no points of weakness.

This 1868 San Francisco strike exhibits frosty cartwheel luster and uniform golden coloring. Strike is complete with residual mint frost surrounding stars and reverse legend. Field abrasions are limited to a few tiny obverse contact marks, none worthy of specific mention. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view. Another quality U.S. gold offering from the Murphys Collection. Priced well below the PCGS pricing guide. MS62 and MS63 specimens bring $6,000 to $10,000 respectly, therefore the AU58 grade level is a very attractive value.
	1870	AU58	PCGS 82299614	Choice	$2100	Low Mintage Date, Choice Original Surfaces, Full Strike, Accurately Graded, Oregon Beaver Collection. 1870 Philadelphia strikes have a tiny issue of only 4,520 and are very scarce in all grades. Choice uncirculated specimens are very rare and approach proof rarity. PCGS population reports indicates 18 total at the AU58 level with 12 in mint state. MInt state prices ramp quickly making accurately graded AU58 specimens the optimum point on the value/price curve. This offering, from the Oregon Beaver Collection, warrants serious attention. Surfaces are reflective and offer ample cartwheel luster. Strike is complete with no weakness detected during 10x loupe inspection. Blemishes are limited to a few micro ticks in the fields that are not distracting. A quality rare date offering that is housed in 2015 style PCGS holder.

In mint state, the certified number drops off dramatically with substantial pricing increases. This offering, from the Murphys Collection, features near choice original surfaces that emit reflective luster on both sides. Fields are lightly mirrored with few abrasions. Strike is typical of the date with all being found with weak left facing leg details. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder and ready for a new home in an advanced United States gold collection.

	1873-S	AU58	NGC 4243832006	Original	$900	Rare and Underrated Date, Original Surfaces, Frosty Luster, Greenish-Gold Coloring, Fully Struck, Murphys Collection. 1873 San Francisco mint production of gold quarter eagles was limited to 27,000 strikes. As a result this date is very scarce in AU and rare in mint state. The AU58 grade level is the ideal value point as mint state prices jump exponentially. Courtesy of the Murphys Collection, GFRC is pleased to offer a frosty original AU58 example with full strike. David Akers comments that "most examples of this date are seen very weakly struck, both on the head of Liberty and on the eagle on the reverse." Surface coloring is a greenish-gold. Fields are blemish free other than a surface divot between stars 6 and 7. This divot resulted from a planchet issue. Housed in new large font NGC holder and worthy of special consideration at the asking price.

If only this lovely 1875 dated quarter eagle were a Philadelphia strike! Yes, this piece is still most desireable as a San Francisco strike with meager mintage of 11,600 pieces. An underrated and undervalued date, particularly in AU or better. GFRC is pleased to be offering an AU55 example with crusty copper gold patina. Strike is better than average for the issue with full obverse stars and eagle feathers at the wing tips. There are no blemishes worth mentioning either. Housed in new large font NGC holder. A United States gold offering from the Saco River Collection that brings quality and rarity to the price lists.

	1886	AU58	PCGS 36887025	Choice	$975	Underrated, Near Gem Original, Lightly Mirrored Fields, Crisp Reflective Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels, Completely Struck, Just a Touch of Rub!. Tiny mintage of 4,000 and so underrated at current prices. The near gem original example would please the selective collector with its proof like fields and crisp reflective luster. Strike is essentially hammered with deeply impressed devices on both sides. After a close 10x loupe inspection, I may have found some rub that would justify the assigned AU58 grade. The cheek is the likely location with a slight break in mint frost. Otherwise, this piece is full mint state. Overall eye appeal is substantial. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder with CAC approval.
	1887	MS63	PCGS 81924298	Choice	$2100	Tiny Mintage, Choice Original, Orange Gold Cartwheel Luster, Lightly Mirrored Fields, Accurately Graded.

Let's start this description, for this lovely 1887 gold quarter eagle with a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation given the eye appeal and choice surfaces. Vibrant reflection cartwheel luster is substantial and dazzling under a light source. Patina is classic orange gold that is to be expected for a well preserved 19th century gold specimen. Strike is essentially complete with a fully defined reverse but several stars lacking connected centrils. Fields have faint chatter that could explain the assigned NGC grade. Luster is more prominent than expected for the assigned MS61 grade. This piece offers value as I don't see the field chatter as being distracting. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.

Once again, let's consider the 1925-D issue's background as explained by David Akers. He states, "Almost always having very good to excellent mint lustre but the striking quality varies greatly; some are very unevenly struck while others are well struck. Dies seem to have been a problem with this issue, and many specimens were clearly struck from buckled or deteriorated dies. The mint mark is usually a little weak but well defined. There are some specimens, however, where the mintmark is so weak that it is nearly invisible. The color is typically a rose tinted gold but there are also coppery colored specimens as well as ones with green and yellow gold shades. The surfaces are frosty with little or no granularity." In light of these observation, this example was carefully examined with a 10x loupe. Surfaces are frosty with brilliant cartwheel luster. Strike is complete and uniform with some minor die bulging below the Indian's chin and behind E PLU(RI)BUS. Overall eye appeal is superior and warrants a gem quality rating.

In Uncirculated it remains an extremely rare coin. I am aware of just four or five, including a Gem..." Winter then goes on to discuss luster characteristic for Charlotte 1855 gold and states that nearly all will be seen with thick frosty luster and "A few are known with slightly reflective prooflike fields." Offered here is one of the few known with mirrored fields. Mintage is a low 39,788 pieces.

Osprey strikes against with another outstanding 1907 $10 Indian offering. A first year of design issue with multiple varieties. 1907 brought the Wired Edge and Rolled Edge variants with both being prohibitively expensive. 1907 also saw the minting of No Motto examples which are ideal for first year of design types sets. Mintage is a reasonable 239,406. The latest offering is conservatively graded MS63 with monster satiny cartwheel luster. Surfaces have minimal marks for the MS63 grade level. The lack of blemishes and vibrant luster warrants a trip to CAC for review. Housed in new large font NGC holder. Please give this gorgeous $10 Indian eagle special consideration for an advanced type collection.
	1914-S	AU58	raw	Original	$1075	Better Date, Original Surfaces, Nice Luster, Fairly Graded . San Francisco 1914 strikes are a better date with mintage of only 208,000.

Luster is crisp and natural. Recently purchased from a collection where gold remained raw and unholdered.
	1926	MS61	PCGS 24354894	Choice	$825	New March 20! CAC Approval, Frosty Cartwheel Luster, Choice For Grade, Pleasing and Attractive, Seated Appalachian Collection. Many $10 Indians at the MS61 grade level will be quite baggy and unattractive. Just the opposite is true here. At first glance, the bright frosty luster and sharp cartwheels suggest MS62/MS63 potential. Swirling the piece under a light source reveals a few abrasions in the upper right obverse but not distracting. Orange-gold patina covers both sides. A conservatively graded example that is housed in PCGS Gen 4.5 holder with edge view insert along with CAC approval. Part of a type set divestment by the Seated Appalachian Collection.
	1932	MS62	PCGS Rattler 6081067	Choice	HOLD $1550	New March 18! Frosty, Gold CAC, Rattler Holder.. The $10 Indian is a wildly favorite design in the U.S. series and presents exceptional work on the part of the engraver Augustus Saint-Gaudens. This example radiates frosty luster from orange-gold surtaces, and the few, scattered marks are more consistent with a higher technical grade. CAC has assigned gold status to only six 1932 Indians and none in higher grade than the current piece. Does your collection include a gold coin with a gold sticker? Here is your chance! From the Jim Poston collection, housed in a PCGS 1986-1989 Gen1.2 Rattler Holder.
$20 Liberty
	1851	AU53	PCGS 82415323	Original	$3000	Early Date, Original Orange Gold, Accurately Grading, Osprey Collection. An affordable and attractive 1851 Philadelphia $20 double eagle strike that was recently repatriated from Europe. Though this date has a mintate of slightly over 2,000,000, it is far from common and always in demand when accurately graded and fairly priced. This example exhibits satiny luster with a delicate semi-granular finish that is typical for the issue. Strike is also typical with decent definition of central hair curls and rounded stars. There are a few blemishes on the reverse with the most noticeable being below the eagle tail feathers. Accurately graded at the AU53 grade level and housed in 2015 style PCGS holder. Another quality offering from the Osprey Collection that deserves consideration.

Second year of New Orleans mint issue with mintage of 315,000. This issue is known for being well struck but with many having heavily abraded surfaces. This VF35 example features only honest wear.

Fairly graded and housed in PCGS old green holder with CAC approval. A quality offering from the Osprey Collection that is worthy of special consideration.

Surfaces are essentially blemish free and I could easily see this double eagle in an MS61 without question. 1853 double eagle strikes have a lower mintage than their 1851 and the 1852 counteparts but all three dates have similar pricing and overall availability. The 1853 date is rare in Mint State grades and undervalued as PCGS has only graded (3) in MS63 and none higher. This AU58 example with CAC approval is so choice and pleasing. In hand inspection under a bright light will reveal the flashy luster and tickle the eyes. Freshly graded and housed in 2015 style PCGS holder along with CAC approval. Please give this double eagle special consideration as I know GFRC customers will not be disappointed.

	1854 Large Date	AU53	PCGS 82415325	Original	New Price $10250	Large Date Punch, Very Scarce Grade, Original Satiny Luster and Surfaces, Accurately Graded, Osprey Collection. United States gold specialists indicate that the 1854 Large Date double eagle probably accounts for less than 10% of the original mintage of 757,899 piece. The Large Date punch is the same used on silver dollars and certain New Orleans eagles of that year. Uniform strike is seen throughout obverse and reverse; in particular the lower reverse shield and surrounding devices. Surfaces marks are consistent with the grade and expectations for this date. Residual luster has a satiny grainy texture. All Large Date examples will show a distinct die dot on Liberty's throat above the 8 digit. This diagnostic point is quite obvious on the offered example. Freshly sourced from Europe and housed in new 2015 style PCGS holder with no CAC attempt. Another important United States early gold offering from the Osprey Collection.

Typical yellow-gold coloring. Freshly graded and housed in new 2015 style PCGS holder. Repatriated from Europe by the Osprey Collection and completely fresh to the United States market. Pricing is very competitive for the date scarcity and would not expect this piece to last long on GFRC price list. PCGS price guide is $2800.

Fairmont Collection. Tiny mintage of 43,596 which is the second lowest for any Type One double eagle from the Philadelphia mint. This issue is well known for being extensively abraided particularly in the left obverse field. GFRC is most pleased to be offering an EF45 graded example of this rare Philadelphia date. Surfaces are covered with thick crusty copper gold patina. When viewed under a light source, an orange glow appears at the peripheries and is captured by GFRC photography. Surfaces are abraid consistent with this date's reputation but perfectly original. Overall, a most pleasing piece of early United States gold that belong in an advanced collection.

Housed in old NGC Fatty holder with brown label. Fresh CAC approval. Recently purchased from an old Sarasota collection and off the market for several decades.

	1922-S	MS63	PCGS 9859459	Choice	$3300	New March 17! Better St. Gaudens Date, Choice Original, Rich Orange-Gold Patina, Frosty Cartwheels, Minimal Abrasions, Accurately Graded. Prior to the 1950s, the 1922-S was considered to be one of the premier rarities of the Saint-Gaudens series. However, a series of hoards were located in Europe and Central America that reduced that rarity status. Today, 1922 San Francisco strikes are seen as a better date with strong pricing premium over bullion content. This MS63 graded example is housed in PCGS Gen3.1 old green holder that was issued from 1993 to 1998. Eye appeal is pleasing with rich orange-gold patina that is expected for the issue. Frosty cartwheels are vibrant. Surfaces have minimal abrasions at the assigned grade level. Grading appears to be conservative when adding up luster, coloring and lack of abrasions. From an old time Sarasota area collection that has been off the market for several decades.
