Early Commemoratives
	1903	MS62	NGC 1606799008	Choice	$560	LA Purchase, McKinley, Frosty Luster, Orange-Gold Coloring, Bart Chapman Collection.. Consignor Price Reduction. Prior to the days of mass media and instant communication, international expositions served as the best way to see the whole world at once. A farmer living in Missouri could never afford a voyage around the entire world, but visiting the World's Fair in St. Louis, perhaps a couple counties away, was a definite possibility. Attending countries put their best foot forward to showcase their commerce and culture, and the creation of U.S. commemorative coins to mark the event was no surprise. This piece honored the recently assassinated President McKinley, similar to the situation with the Kennedy half dollar in 1964. This coin exhibits warm orange-gold color with occasionally copper shading on both sides. Just 17,500 were struck, many of which entered circulation after being eventually spent by World's Fair attendees. This piece shows minimal handling and is a pleasant exception. Housed in an old NGC holder with standard ring insert.
$1 - Type 1 Liberty Head
	1852	MS63	PCGS OGH 4275087	Choice	$725	Silky Luster, Orange-Gold Coloration, Worn Dies, Choice Original Surfaces. Rich orange-gold patination is readily apparent on this choice original 1852 gold dollar. Under a bright light, the luster appears silky with a fair amount of die erosion within the upper reverse. Dies are also lightly clashed with a complete strike. During first inspection, this piece was designated for CAC review where it did not sticker. Worthy of a GFRC-Choice quality rating for overall eye appeal and accurate grading. Housed in PCGS Gen 3.1 (1993-1998) old green holder with plastic haze on the lower reverse.
	1853	MS62	NGC 6688309001	Choice	$600	Popular Type 1 Date, Honey Green-Gold, Frosted Luster, Fully Struck. The Type 1 gold dollar design, "the Liberty Head" was employed from 1849 through 1854. The 1853 date is available and is always a great type coin candidate. This Osprey example features honey green-gold coloration and soft frosted luster. Strike is deeply impressed with all minute die details being well formed and easily seen. Housed in new large font NGC holder. The holder has an stacking edge chip at the top right.
	1853	AU58	PCGS 03928171	Choice	HOLD $415	Type 1, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Orange Honey-Gold, Choice Surfaces, Sooner Collection. The brilliant, frosted luster is readily apparent when examining this 1853 gold dollar under a bright light. A careful 10x inspection confirms the slightest rub on the cheek and upper hair braids. That rub does not interrupt the lustrous display. The strike is complete while the surfaces are well preserved. Previously from the Bart Chapman estate. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
$1 - Type 2 Indian Princess
	1854	AU58	NGC 1876433001	Original	$825	Tough Type 2 Indian Princess, Steely Frosted Luster, Classic Green-Gold, Near-Choice. Yet another 1854 Type 2 Indian Princess one dollar gold pieces arrives to the price list from an old time collection. Classic green-gold coloration is noted with partial mirrored easily experienced under a bright light. The strike is sharp, for the design, with die clashing on both sides. A few tony contact marks on the reverse hold back a full Choice quality rating with the offer price being reflective of that fact. Ideal as a type coin given the popular AU58 grade. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1854	AU58	NGC 595384009	Choice	$825	Type 2 Indian Princess, Brilliant Frosted Luster. Honey Yellow-Gold, Choice Overall. Having multiple 1854 Type 2 Indian Princess dollar gold is an opportunity for collectors to conduct some comparison shopping. This is another example from an old time U.S. gold collection that continues to divest via GFRC. This piece exhibits brilliant frosted luster from surfaces that have honey yellow-gold coloration. Under a bright light, cartwheels are noted and a feat for a tiny gold piece. There is light rub on the high points and fields with die clashing evident on both sides, more so on the reverse. Mint frost is substantial on the reverse which adds to the overall charm. Let's go with a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation to close the description. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1855	MS62	PCGS 37649798	Choice	$2050	Type 2 Indian Princess, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Honey Green-Gold Coloration, Heavy Die Clashing. 1855 saw the Type 2 Indian Princess hub design employed for a full year prior to the conversion to the final Type 3 design in 1856. Gold type collectors are always challenged with locating a Type 2 due to its brief issuance during the latter part of 1854 and throughout 1855. This accurately graded MS62 example offers brilliant frosted luster under a bright light along with honey green-gold coloration. Both sides are heavily clashed from well worn and cracked dies. The obverse has die cracks at the tops of ST(ATES) while the reverse has haloed devices and a bold die crack from left to the rim. One well hidden obverse contact mark is consistent with the certified grade. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.
	1855	MS61	NGC 1747089003	Original	$1375	Type 2 Indian Princess Design, Lustrous, Honey Green Gold, Near-Choice Original. Mintage for the 1854 and 1855 Type 2 Indian Princess gold dollar issues are quite similar at 783,943 and 758, 269 respectively. However, I've found the 1855 date to be less frequently encountered. Continuing from our old time U.S. gold supplier, is this honey green-gold example with steely luster. A reasonable strike is noted with heavy die clashing on the reverse. An obverse contact mark by (ST)ATES precludes a Choice quality rating but let's remember that the girding is accurately as an MS61. Housed in NGC Gen 14 (2003-2004) holder.
	1855	AU58	NGC 3171167011	Choice	$825	Type 2 Indian Princess, Yellow Gold Coloration, Frosted Luster, Choice Surfaces. GFRC has enjoyed a constant stream of early United States gold during 2024 and now, early 2025, thanks to the ongoing releases from an old time collection. This 1855 Type 2 Indian Princess gold dollar is always popular as a short lived design type and available at the in demand AU58 grade. The coloration is in the yellow gold realm with frosted luster radiating under angled lighting. Both sides are heavily clashed which is so typical of this small sized denomination. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert and CAC approval.
	1855	AU55	NGC 1840145004	Original	$650	Type 2 Indian Princess, Yellow-Gold, Steely Fields and Reflectance. Yet another 1855 Type 2 Indian Princess to consider from our old time collection client. This is a yellow-gold example with lightly worn surfaces and fields coupled with steely reflective fields. There is die clashing behind Liberty's head. This small Type 2 hoard will make its appearance at the 2025 Atlanta National Money show next week along with a host of other fine gold dollar releases. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1855-O	Genuine	PCGS 14612875	Cleaned	$1250	Popular New Orleans Gold Dollar Date, Steely Luster, No Hairlines Whatsoever. According to Doug Winter, "the 155-O is the most popular New Orleans gold dollar" as a one year type date for the Type 2 Indian Princess design (1854-1856). PCGS has assigned a Genuine opinion which appears to be in question based on my experience cataloging U.S. gold. Steely luster is noted on the peripheries with natural orange-gold radiating. Centers are a dull brownish-gray with wear being evident on the high points. In-hand eye appeal is acceptable for a type set as the offer price is attractive. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
$1 - Type 3 Indian Princess
	1857	AU53	NGC 5853109002	Choice	$525	New April 19! Choice Original, Honey-Gold Coloration, CAC Approval, Pikes Peak Collection. Tough as a date, the 1857 is one of the common gold dollars and is ideal for a gold type set and the Type 3 Indian Princess slot. This Peaks Pike example was original source from GFRC given its well preserved surfaces layered with classic honey green-gold patination. The residual luster is quite impressive under a bright light. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.
	1862	MS63	PCGS 13576808	Choice	$800	Partially Mirrored, Sharp Reflectance, Choice Original. Sure, the 1862 Philadelphia $1 gold issue falls into the common date realm given a mintage of 1,361,355. I'm not surprised that PCGS has certified several examples as Prooflike given the partially mirrored fields seen on this example. Both sides are equally mirrorred with sharp reflective luster with the underlying coloration being honey green-gold. Heavy die striations are readily apparent on the obverse and to lesser extent on the reverse. The field exhibit a few wispy hairlines that are amplified by the mirrored fields. From an old time collection that has been off the market for at least a decade or more. Submitted to CAC where it was not approved. Regardless, this piece warrants a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendations due to the coloration and mirrors that are differentiated from most other examples seen. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
	1862	MS63	PCGS 08616965	Choice	$950	Rich Honey Green-Gold, Frosty Luster, Ideal for Date Set, CAC Approved. Rich honey-gold coloration is consistent on both sides of this 1862 Type 3 Indian Princess. Bright light exposure activities thick frosted luster and moderate cartwheels, an important feat for such a small coin. The strike is complete with the usual haloing on the lower reverse. A few hairlines are noted in the left obverse field which lines up with the technical grade. During in-hand viewing, this appearance is that of a higher grade. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.
	1862	MS62	NGC 1825770068	Choice	$600	Light Honey-Gold, Frosted Luster, Choice Overall. The release of $1 United States gold, from an old time collection, continues with this lovely 1862 example that is accurately graded. Coloration is best described as light honey-gold with adequate luster on both sides. A careful 10x inspection confirms that this is indeed a Mint State example with continuous luster across the high points. A complete strike is noted while the surfaces have a few minor abrasions of no real consequence. Off of the market for over a decade and ready for placement in a new collection. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder. Please note that the lower reverse image is impacted by plastic haze on this holder.
	1868	MS61	NGC 3178455006	Choice	$1050	Low Mintage Issue, Partially Mirrored, Green-Gold Coloration, Choice Overall. This 1868 gold dollar presents a compelling entry point for a date collector. First is the low mintage of 10,500 with most survivors being in the lower Mint State grades. This availability has kept date pricing premiums to a minimum. From an old time collection arrives this lot with green-gold coloration and partially mirrored fields. The obverse is quite pleasing with essentially no abrasions while the reverse has light chatter that explains the certified grade. Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1872	MS63	PCGS 37721658	Choice	$3250	Rare Low Mintage Issue, Partially Mirrored, Yellow-Gold, A Near-Gem, CAC Approved. A top quality 1872 Type 3 gold piece that is consistently difficult to acquire by gold dollar collectors. A rare date when fully choice given the low mintage of only 3,500. This new acquisition is fully struck with deeply impressed motifs, partially mirrored fields, and an overall yellow-gold coloration. David Akers opines that, "The 1872 is one of my favorite dates in the gold dollar series. Except for the 1875, it is the scarcest date after 1870 and is really very rare in choice condition." The rarity is easily corroborated by checking the CAC census with only 17 approved in all grades. The CAC price guide stands at $3,300 at the offered graded and jumps to $4,500 at the MS64 level. A compelling offering for those assembling a $1 gold set. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.
	1879	MS65	PCGS 50027065	Gem	$2500	Low Mintage Issue, Missing Liberty Lettering, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Gem Original. 1879 gold dollar mintage is 3,000 and actually is more difficult to locate than the subsequent 1880 issue whereby only 1,600 were produced with hoarding increasing availability. This 1879 example is consistent with reported examples lacking most of the lettering in LIBERTY. This is an attractive gem with variegated orange and white gold shades. The reverse is particularly eye catching with the left side exhibiting bluish-white and the opposite being orange-gold. Under angled lighting, the steely-frosted radiance is substantial with vibrant cartwheels. Heavy reverse die clashing is also noted for accuracy. An unquestionable gem that was submitted to CAC without approval. I believe this is a notable example and you will too! Housed in PCGS Gen 4.1 (2003-2004) holder.
	1886	MS64	NGC 3172412001	Choice	$1100	Late Date Low Mintage Issue, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels. .

From an old time collection arrives this near-gem example with deep honey green-gold surfaces with considerable eye appeal. Under a bright light, the fields are particular radiant with the luster being in the frosted-steely category. Equally pleasing are the vibrant cartwheels. The strike is also deeply impressed and notable. Offered at an attractive asking price. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
	1887	MS63	PCGS 45322083	Choice	$950	New April 5! Choice Original, Island City Collection.. GFRC Client Buyout and Price Reduction - Frosty yellow-gold surfaces reveal hints of rose patina and scattered bits of red-copper color. Most one-dollar pieces of this decade migrated quickly into collector hands, and high-grade survivors are the rule. As a result, highly lustrous and completely detailed examples, such as the present coin, are available to today’s collector at reasonable price points. CAC has certified 119 coins total, with 101 pieces finer. The CAC price guide value is $1,100 in MS63. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder with CAC approval.
$2.5 Liberty
	1851-O VP-001	AU58	NGC 4928446006	Choice	$2250	1851/1851-O, Steely Frosted Luster, Honey Green-Gold, Choice Surfaces, Oregon Beaver Collection. 1851 New Orleans struck $2.5 gold will occasionaly be located with bold repunching below the final 1 digit. However, a careful inspection of this VP-001, from the the Oregon Beaver Colleftion, revealed all four digits being repunched lower and to the left. Interestingly, PCGS has yet to recognize what is an obvious double date occurence while NGC does. This example is accurately graded with a full obverse strike while the reverse has typical center weakness. Coloration is a pleasing honey green-gold with some orange at the right viewing angle. Surfaces are nicely preserved with only a few scattered marks in the lower right obverse field requiring mention. Housed in new large font NGC holder with VP-001 variety attribution on the label.
	1853	AU58	NGC 3737018005	Original	$695	Original, 1853 Type Set, Pre-Whitman Baltimore Offering. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert. Full descriptions forthcoming if not sold at the 2024 Winter Whitman Baltimore show.
	1854-O	AU53 Details	ANACS OWH 2860463	Cleaned	$700	Dull Mirrors, Honey Green-Gold, Typical Strike. The gold $2.5 Liberty consignment release continues with this 1854-O lot that has been accurately assessed by ANACS during the early 1990s. This is a honey green-gold piece with the typical reverse strike weakness around the shield, the olive leaves, and eagle's right talon. This piece original had semi-proof like fields with frosted devices. The old wipe has dulled the mirrors and the mint frost. Priced at nearly 50% back of the PCGS price guide. Housed in early ANACS old white holder with an AU53 Details designation on the label.
	1854-O	EF45	NGC 3891583012	Choice	$1150	Classic Copper-Green Gold, Well Preserved, CAC Approved. 1854 brought the distinction of the $2.5 gold denomination being struck at all five mints of that era. The Dahlonega and San Francisco issues are brutally difficult to locate while the Charlotte is not far behind in rarity. This leaves the New Orleans issue as being available for branch mint collectors. Though the mintage is only 153,000, the date is seen with some frequency. This new GFRC offering is readily noted for its classic copper-green gold coloration and smooth surfaces. The circulated eye appeal is all there and pleasing. Housed in NGC Gen 17 holder with CAC approval.
	1857	AU53	CACG 650219513	Choice	$850	Challenging "Common Date", Choice Original, Honey-Green Gold, Fresh CACG Grading. 1857 Philadelphia struck $2.5 gold amounted to 214,130 pieces resulting in numismatic experts viewing the date as "common". However, when fully choice, this date is challenging given that CAC has stickered only 41 in all grades while CACG has holdered two examples, one of which is being offered here. The premium nature is unquestionable with well preserved surfaces that are every so lightly worn. Coloration is a traditional honey green-gold. The CAC price guide is $925 as reference. Perfect as a pre-Civil War era type piece and much more difficult that the 1852, 1853, and 1854 Philadelphia issues and even the 1854-O . Housed in new CAC Grading holder and graded consistent with CAC approval standards.

An important Civil War era Liberty $2.5 gold offering that is challenging in all grades. Mintage was limited to 98,508 with question marks concerning the amount that was actually released into east coast circulation during a period when all silver and gold specie disappeared from commerce due to hoarding. This pristine 1862 survivor warrants close scrutiny for inclusion in an advanced $2.5 gold set. Surfaces scream originality with their natural green-gold coloring and light frosted texture. Surfaces are entirely unabraded and so pleasing with darker "dirt" in some protected areas. Strike is also complete. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert and CAC approval.
	1868	MS60	NGC 3193590004	Original	$2750	Low Mintage Post Civil War Issue, Partially Mirrored, Reflective Luster, Honey-Gold. Under a bright light, the partially mirrored fields emit considerable reflectivity on this low mintage 1868 Philadelphia issue. Both sides offer a consistent brilliance that is eye catching. Mint State example are rare with the PCGS population indicating only 14 certified in all uncirculated grades consistent with a mintage of 3,600 during the immediate post Civil War years. Coloration is honey-gold. A 10x review notes light field chatter and a few light obverse hairlines that are undeniably consistent with the certified grade. Fairly priced and housed in an NGC 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1868	AU58	NGC 3386564002	Choice	$2450	Low Mintage Philadelphia Date, Partially Mirrored, Rich Honey-Gold Coloration, Choice and Rare. CAC approval has unquestionably differentiated U.S. gold with strictly original example of the scarcer early dates having low census populations. Case in point in the 1868 $2.5 quarter eagle with a mintage of only 3,600. CAC has approved ten in all grades with seven at the AU58 level and a single MS62 certified example being finer. Offered today is one of the AU58s that is a real sweetheart. Let's start with partially mirrored fields on both sides and the sharp reflective luster that is activated under a bright light. The overall coloration is a pleasing rich honey-gold. The strike is 100% complete with finely detail center hair curls and eagle feathers at the wing tips. Two lines are noted in the lower right obverse field which are amplified against a mirrored surface backdrop. The CDN price guide is $1700 and jumps to $3250 at the "MS60" level.

GFRC is quite pleased to be offering not one but two 1870 $2.5 gold pieces with both certified at the MS61 level and only four finer. This example also presents partially mirrored fields on the obverse while the reverse falls into the steely-frosted realm. An unquestionably original example with obverse field chatter being noted and consistent with the certified grade. The strike is essentially complete with only a touch of weakness at the eagle's left leg feathers and wing tip. The obverse strike is hammered with circular lathe lines seen throughout the center motif. Mintage is only 4,520 with eight certified at the offered grade. How cool is it that GFRC is offering 25% of the PCGS holdered examples at one time on the price list. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
	1872	AU55	NGC 277886003	Original	$3000	Low Mintage Issue, Partially Mirrored, Notable Bright Light Reflectance. The release of better date $2.5 gold continues with this 1872 Philadelphia lot that exhibits light wear in the fields and on the motifs. Yet another low mintage issue with only 3,000 struck during the year that Ulysses S. Grant defeated Horace Greeley and Susan B. Anthony voted for the first time on behalf of American women. This example exhibits partially mirrored fields with a notable amount of pleasing reflectance under a bright light. The overall strike is close to complete with only the left eagle leg lacking full definition. There are several reverse contact marks on the E in UNITED and between ES in STATES that requires mention. Housed in NGC 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1874	AU58	NGC 1578506007	Original	$1150	Scarce in All Grades, Semi-Proof Like, Sharp Reflectance, Yellow Green-Gold. The Philadelphia $2.5 issues during 1868 through 1874 have a reported mintage ranging from 3,600 (1868) to 5,320 (1871) when excluding the 1873 Closed and Open 3s. This $2.5 release from an old time cabinet has confirmed that semi-prooflike fields are the rule. This 1874 lot is consistent with mirrors that are immediately evident under a bright light. The reflectively is quite notable and pleasing. Light wear is seen in the fields and on the cheek. Strike is completely executed and a delight to view during 10x inspection. The coloration falls into the yellow green-gold realm. A single obverse field tick below Liberty's bonnet needs mention. A lot that is fairly priced and worthy of collector attention. Housed in NGC 17 (2004-2008) holder.
	1879-S	MS61	PCGS 34391030	Choice	$2500	Scarce Final Year Issue, Partially Mirrored Fields, Nice Reflectance, Lizard King Collection. This is the first 1879-S $2.5 gold piece to be handled by GFRC and what a why to get started with the date. Please note this lovely Lizard King Collection duplicate with partially mirrored fields and sharp reflective luster on both sides. Cartwheels are vibrant with angled lighting. Overall coloration is best described as yellow-gold. Strike is typical while the fields are ever so lightly chattered. Overall, a fairly graded example with a competitive offer number.

	1880	AU58	NGC 3316954002	Gem	$2500	Gem Original Offering, Yellow Gold, Partially Mirrored Fields, CAC approved. The 1880 $2.5 gold issue is yet another lower mintage later date that continues to be underrated in the current marketplace. With a mintage of 2,960, this date is scarce in all grades. I was compelled to reward this exceptional example with a GFRC-Gem quality tating. Maybe I am enchanted by the mirrored fields that exhibit sharp reflectance under a bright light. Also compelling is the complete strike and unabraded surfaces with light rub consistent with the certified grade. Coloration falls into the honey yellow-gold realm. The CAC census currently stands at 25 stickered with a CDN price guide number being quoted as $2,250. There is a 50% pricing premium at MS62. Housed in NGC 25 (2008) holder with CAC approval.
	1887	AU55	NGC 3314408017	Original	$900	Underrated Date, Steely-Frosted Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels, Yellow-Gold Coloration. Though 1887 Philadelphia struck $2.5 gold mintage increased to 6,160 pieces, this date is considered underrated and just as rare as the prior low mintage issues of 1882 through 1884. This lot offers a steely-frosted surface finish with some "mirrored" like reflectivity under a bright light with embedded sparkling frost. The cartwheel action is vibrant. Light field and surface wear is evident during 10x reviewed. Please note that the reverse rim is quite degraded with a crumbled appearance from 8:00 to 12:00. The offer price appears to be quite reasonable for the date's scarcity. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert that is probably from the 2008-2009 era.
	1888	MS65	NGC 3514764004	Gem	$5250	Near Finest Known, Richly Frosted Gem, CAC Approved. Mintage for the 1888 $2.5 issue increased to 16,001 as compared to the limited five digit production of prior years.

GFRC is pleased to be offering a CAC approved specimen at the lofty MS65 grade with a single example finer. The CAC price guide lists $5,600 as fair market value for reference. This lot is a "luster bomb" with rich honey-gold mint bloom on both sides. Under a bright light, the frosted radiance and cartwheels are thoroughly pleasing. The peripheral strike is hammered with raised stars and elevated reverse legend though the eagle's left leg feathers are weakly defined. Worthy of careful consideration. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert and CAC approval.
	1888	MS64	NGC 4116837002	Gem	$2100	Deeply Frosted Radiance, Honey Yellow-Gold, Gem Original, CAC Approved. The Liberty $2.5 gold series is replete with low mintage dates that would bring huge premiums if found in high demand smaller sliver denominations. This 1888 Philadelphia issue is an example with only 2,960 struck. The date is naturally scarce overall due to mintage though, in MInt State, the issue is available. Survivors with completely unmolested surfaces are always in demand. Offering here is a GFRC-Gem rated example with hammered strike and with deeply impressed device details. Under a bright light, the frosted radiance is brilliant and intense. Coloration falls into a honey yellow-gold spectrum. The CDN CAC price guide is $2,250 as reference. Housed in a new NGC holder with edge view insert and CAC approval.
	1888	MS63	NGC 2572945003	Choice	$1200	Rich Frosted Luster, Deep Honey-Gold, Choice Surfaces, CAC Approved. Another late date $2.5 Liberty gold release from an old time collection that warrants a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation. Why? The thick frosted luster is thoroughly pleasing as is the classic honey-gold coloration. Under a bright light, the frosted radiance takes on a sparkling texture. This is a well preserved example with just a touch of obverse field chatter to the right of the hair curls that was captured in the certified grade. Otherwise, the visual presentation is that of a higher grade. The CAC census for the date currently stands at 67 stickered with 38 finer. Priced slightly below the CDN CAC price guide. Housed in NGC 25 (2008) holder with CAC approval.
	1894	MS64	PCGS 48049929	Gem	$4450	Very Scarce Low Mintage Date, Steely-Frosted Radiance, Light Honey Gold, Gem Original. Only 4,000 quarter eagles were struck during 1894 resulting in this date being quite scarce, especially with gem preservation. This example exhibits steely-frosted fields that are stunning under a bright light. The radiance is undisturbed with crisp reflectance. The strike is deeply impressed on both sides with high relief devices throughout. Coloration is a light honey green-gold with the baseline green hues appearing under a bright light. There are no surface abrasions worthy of mention. CAC has approved 33 in all grades with a price guide value currently listed as $4.500. This little gem is guaranteed to please the new owner.

	1895	MS64	PCGS 38596965	Choice	$2530	Eye Appeal of Higher Grade, Near-Gem Original, Oregon Beaver Collection.. Consignor Price Reduction - Every coin that crosses the GFRC desk has its special characteristics. In the case of this near-gem 1895 $2.5 quarter eagle, brilliant luster and eye appeal are that of a higher grade. Obverse fields are lightly mirrored and offer reflective radiance. Reverse fields are frosted with corresponding bright light appearance. Overall luster was so intense that the standard contrast application, during GFRC image processing, was dampened to accurate capture visual effects. The assigned MS64 grade is a function of faint obverse chatter in the field and on the cheek. Frankly, the luster far outweighs any contact marks. Limited mintage of 6,000. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.

Since sporting a mintage of 293,900, the 1888-S $5 gold date is often treated as a "common date" in lower grades though one could argue that the date is scarce in all grades as a starting point.

Another San Francisco $5 gold date that sports a reasonable mintage but is rare in choice Mint State. Even in the late 19th century, west coast coinage had few collectors to selectively "put pieces away" for the long term. As a result, the 1895-S date brings a substantial premium when CAC approved. All but 9 of the 45 approved are at the circulated level. The Osprey Collection is offering a choice example that exhibits pretty sparkling frosty luster and swirling cartwheels. Coloration is a light honey-gold. Scattered field chatter accounts for the certified grade. Only four are finer. Fairly priced for the rarity.

The 1905 $5 gold issue is ideal for type since there is no date premium associated with a mintage of 302,200. This date is considered slightly scarcer than "common" for those who keep track of gold date rarity. The Osprey Collection has hit a homerun with this example purchased at the Pittsburgh ANA. Tightly textured frosted luster is softly brilliant and thoroughly pleasing under a light source. Coloration is a uniform honey-gold with "dirt" free surfaces. Strike is bold and complete. The MS64+ grade is technically accurate as there is scattered field chatter, however the overall eye appeal won the day at CAC. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.

The application of angled lighting, with my desk lamp, allows the surfaces to radiate light in all directions. Coloration is a rich honey-gold with background greens.
