I’m both humbled and excited to kick off my role as editorin-chief of Rare Coin Market Report (RCMR). As many of you may know, PCGS President Brett Charville passed the torch onto me after he helmed the RCMR as editorin-chief since early last year. As we look ahead, we find ourselves entering spring with renewed hope that we will soon be overcoming the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s been a long year to be sure for our hobby. Yet, our marketplace continues showing outstanding strength and resilience. At PCGS, we’ve taken every precaution in holding our special substitute PCGS Members Only Shows. These events, which have occurred around the times of other major shows that had been canceled, provided collectors and dealers the opportunity to trade coins in a convention-like setting pursuant to all CDC, state, and local COVIDrelated safety protocols. These novel shows symbolize one of the many innovative ways that collectors, dealers, and all in the numismatic world have been adapting to the unique and unprecedented challenges we all are facing and overcoming together. Take a look at our upcoming show schedule by visiting www.PCGS.com/shows.
It’s in the spirit of celebrating the health and well-being of our hobby that I’m proud to say this issue of Rare Coin Market Report dives into some fascinating storylines. Countless folks in the numismatic and art world know about Augustus Saint-Gaudens, the renowned sculptor whose work appears on the (aptly named) Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle and Indian Head Eagle. He also crafted some of the greatest displays of public art in the United States, including the General William Tecumseh Sherman Monument in New York City. But was it he alone who created this masterpiece in Manhattan? What about the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle? PCGS contributor Mark Ferguson unveils the details…
PCGS Modern Chinese Coins Consultant Peter Anthony tells the mystical tale behind coins honoring the Chinese space program, while the world of animated fantasy comes to life in banknote and scrip collections from Anaheim to Orlando and beyond with Disney Dollars – the very topic of an article inside these pages. There’s more fact than fiction to be found when gold expert Doug Winter lifts the curtain on the “Curious Case of the Condition Census 1879-CC Eagle.” And young dealer Ethan Opdahl explains why he loves United States type coins.
Additionally, PCGS banknote expert Cory Williams dishes on a rare series of 1880 “Black Back” $100 Silver Certificate that PCGS recently graded, while Jaime Hernandez profiles three PCGS-graded coins and banknotes that hammered for big bucks on the auction floor. Sanjay Gandhi looks at why toned coins are blazing hot on the PCGS Set Registry and also reveals how PCGS has transformed numismatics on an international scale since its founding 35 years ago in 1986. We cap off the world tour with Jay Turner’s tale of an elusive 1859-O Liberty Head Double Eagle that was submitted for grading at the PCGS Europe office in Paris. Finally, be sure to check out “Coin of the Issue” for more information about our amazing cover coin – a rare 1854 California Fractional known as the Defiant Eagle Gold Quarter Dollar.
Enjoy this information-packed issue of Rare Coin Market Report as we continue celebrating our company’s 35th anniversary! May you and yours be in good health and remember that we are always here for you through thick and thicker.
Sincerely,

Thirty-five years ago, the founders of PCGS set out to define and standardize the coin grading process. The evolution of our company was built on a foundation of trust established long before we dreamed of generating any profits. Our mission of offering accurate, trusted third-party grading and encapsulation became a reality as we built a team of highly qualified graders; we also developed a tamper-evident holder with a grading guarantee for each coin authenticated. From our humble beginnings, through patience, trial and error, and conviction, we revolutionized the coin industry by providing a way for coins to be bought and sold with maximum security, liquidity, and value going forward.
In 1986, some 30 dealers signed up in the United States to become PCGS Authorized Dealers. Years later, our Authorized Dealer program was expanded to a global scale, as our international growth began blossoming. Over time, PCGS had a network of Authorized Dealers and offices in Australia, France, China, Germany, Hong Kong, Malaysia, and well beyond what was initially envisioned. Although the United States market is where our roots are firmly entrenched, we branched out into the world coin market to strengthen our leadership as the world’s leading coin authenticator. This growth continues gaining strength as does our expertise within the world numismatic markets.
OurfoundersmaynothavepredictedthatPCGSCollectors Club memberships would reach 20,000+ members to date, with approximately 5,000 of those members being added in the last two years. These numbers are second only to the American Numismatic Association for total organization
membership. In addition to our membership offerings, our popular PCGS Rare Coin Market Report magazine is circulated to our Collectors Club members and includes indepth articles by award-winning authors, information about upcoming shows, recaps on auctions, and a comprehensive price guide.
The PCGS Set Registry, an innovative concept invented by our company more than 20 years ago, continues to grow beyond our wildest expectations, currently with 126,787 sets registered. Even though the PCGS Set Registry saw its beginnings within the US market, collectors from our international markets quickly embraced this service and it has long since been expanded to include a multitude of coin series representing nearly every nation around the world.
During these unique times, we have taken careful measures to place safety at the top of our list. To this end, we have introduced a series of special PCGS “Members Only” Shows that are held in lieu of other major shows that have been canceled. These shows incorporate all CDC recommendations and guidelines and allow dealers and attendees to enjoy a safe coin show experience in conventionlike settings. We implement similar safety protocols for our employees at PCGS Headquarters in California and in our offices worldwide.
Auction houses around the world and collectors alike embrace the PCGS brand for its numismatic prowess, grading acumen, and counterfeit detection expertise. Throughout the years, counterfeiting has plagued the numismatic collectibles market. Our Near-Field Communication (NFC) technology,
technology, which we have embedded in all our encapsulated coins, medals, tokens, and banknotes since October 1, 2020, is revolutionary for the collectibles market.
“PCGS has always been ahead of the curve in the numismatic industry regarding technology, and the inclusion of NFC technology is just the latest way we can stay one step ahead of counterfeiters and ensure collectors and dealers that their PCGS coins and banknotes are exactly what the label promises,” says PCGS President Brett Charville. This technology enables collectors to simply tap their holders with their phone and launch certification information right on their devices’ screens. We are currently the only third-party grading company offering this advanced and convenient service.
These last 35 years have been quite a journey for all of us at PCGS. Some of us have been with the company for a few weeks and others have been here since the early days. Our vision and dedication to help, serve, and protect the collector community remains the same today as it was when we started from our humble beginnings back in 1986. Rather than having 30 PCGS Authorized Dealers, we now have thousands located worldwide.
The trust we have cultivated within the collecting community is partially reflected in the rarities that continue to be submitted to us on a regular basis. Yet this trust is symbolized in so much more than the rarities that cross our grading desks every day. It’s you, the collector, that is most important. Without you, we would not have a Set Registry nor what has become a standardized marketplace for graded coins that are bought and sold.
Through innovation, feedback, and constant improvements within the company, PCGS continues serving as the standard for the rare coin and banknote industry, not only within the United States but throughout the world. Thank you for your continued support – our success is intertwined with yours. We look forward to serving you, the collector, for the next 35 years and beyond!

The Chinese space program has inspired a constellation of collectible money from China, including a 100 Yuan banknote and 10 Yuan bimetallic copper-nickel/brass circulating coin, the latter referencing the Chinese folktale in which two lovers are separated by a "silver river" otherwise known as the Milky Way.
The boat bobs back and forth gaily as a small boy calls out, “Careful of the rocks!” to an imaginary sailor. Six-year-old Chen Chen squats, eyes level with the tub’s water line to make his little craft look grander. Suddenly the clatter of hoofs reaches his ears. Chen Chen reels the boat in with a string, grabs his toy and runs to the house gate. Outside a hunting party is passing on the road. Mounted on the lead horse is mighty Hou Yi (pronounced HoYee), the greatest archer in the country.
Some years ago, Hou Yi saved this land from disaster. Back then, there was more than one sun in the sky and all of them were out of control. They scorched the earth and burnt the crops so the people starved. Brave Hou Yi climbed the highest mountain and called out to the suns, but they ignored him. So, he took his bow and arrows and shot them down one-by-one until only one was left. It agreed to act properly.
For this heroic feat, it’s said that the Queen Mother of the West rewarded the bowman with an elixir of immortality. There was
enough for two people. “Someday, Hou Yi and his beautiful wife, Chang’e, will drink it and go to live forever in the sky with the Moon and stars.” Chen Chen overheard the grown-ups say that.
The boy rests his chin on a fence post. He stares after the men as they round a bend, and a row of pine trees blocks his view. “When I grow up, I want to be an archer like Hou Yi. Then I can do great deeds and help the people, too,” he says quietly. With this thought in his head, Chen Chen runs back to the tub to play some more. He pays no notice to a hooded figure who walks in the direction of Hou Yi’s home.
Once there, Pang Meng glances around. No one in sight! As one of Hou Yi’s students Pang knows this place well. Ever since the defeat of the suns, strong young men like Pang Meng have traveled from all around to study with Hou Yi. Unlike the other pupils, though, Pang Meng is not really devoted to his studies. Instead, he is obsessed with thoughts of immortality and the elixir. He has learned that Hou Yi’s wife Chang’e always carries it in a
little bottle that hangs around her neck As Pang stewed about the elixir a plan came to him. Today, he pretended to be ill to avoid going on the hunt.
Pang Meng slips through the gate and quickly slithers behind a tree to watch the yard. It is a bright, sunny spring morning, but the woods fall silent a squirrel leaps away as a magpie eyes the intruder and flutters off.
Ah, there is lovely Chang’e, sending a young servant girl to the marketplace Good! Another servant can be heard in the front of the building. Chang’e is now alone. The intruder quickly crosses the yard, enters through the back door and pulls back his hood.
As she arranges a bowl of peaches on a table, Chang’e is startled. She recoils and exclaims, “Mr. Pang Meng, what are you doing here?”
“Give me the potion, now, and be quick about it,” he hisses.
Cornered and frightened Chang’e knows there is no escape. She moves to keep the table between herself and the thief Then, with one swift motion, she pulls on the string around her neck, lifts the container and empties its magical contents down her throat before the man can reach her.

“No!” Pang Meng cries as his hands grab only air. Within moments, Chang’e has floated clear of the house and watches as it gets smaller and smaller in her view She can barely hear the screams of the servant girl now but can make out a hooded man fleeing into the woods.
That night, when Hou Yi rides toward home he is met by frantic townspeople pointing at the sky. He looks up. Stunned, he sees his Chang’e looking down forlornly at him from the Moon.
“Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one, blast off!” The words from Hainan Island, China, race around the world. First silence, then flames spew out, massive rocket engines roar and slowly, battling gravity’s pull, an 8,200-kilogram (18,100-pound) metal cylinder begins to rise. With each second it accelerates, a video camera beams back an image of the inferno venting from the rocket’s tail. Blue sky turns to black space as it climbs. At 30 minutes, the payload breaks away from the Long March launch rocket and the Beijing Aerospace Control Center control room breaks out in applause. The People’s Republic of China’s Moon mission, named Chang’e 5 in honor of the beloved Chinese folktale, is on its way. For the first time since 1972, mankind will go to

For China, the Chang’e 5 mission is another stride on a national journey that started in 1956. After both the USSR and USA launched spacecraft Chairman Mao Zedong announced, "We too will make satellites."
China took its first step toward a Moon landing on October 24, 2007 when the Chang’e 1 Moon probe lifted off from Sichuan Province. Once in orbit it unfurled solar power panels and shifted its course three times over the next few days. The satellite then headed Moonward.
During its mission the satellite needed to maintain communication with Earth, keep its solar panels oriented toward the Sun, and train its sensors at the Moon to conduct experiments. Chang’e 1 successfully made three-dimensional maps of the surface, detected the relative presence and distribution of chemical elements and measured lunar soil depth.
To mark this achievement China struck two “Success of the First Exploration of China’s Spacecraft to the Moon” commemorative coins: a 1/3 Oz. Gold 150 Yuan (20,000 minted) and a 1 Oz. Silver 10 Yuan (40,000 minted). The obverse features a solar system map designed by Yu Min. The reverse is the work of designer Li Jiye. It shows Chang’e 1 orbiting the Moon with the Earth far off in the background.
The satellite’s developer, China Aerospace Technology Institute, commissioned a pair of gold- and silver-colored 40-millimeter medals in 2007. On one side these depict the spacecraft above the Moon’s surface. On the other is Lady Chang’e and the Moon. A total of 5,000 sets were minted. Years later, the Shenyang Mint issued a 60-millimeter brass medal that pictured the Chang’e 1 satellite, the Moon, Saturn, and Chang’e herself. The design is by well-known coin artist Chang Huan.
On September 27, 2008, an arc of brilliant blue fills the top of television screens around the world. At the bottom a

white shape slowly emerges from the Shenzhou 7 spacecraft, looks at the camera, and waves. It is Zhai Zhigang, the first taikonaut (astronaut) to walk in space. As Zhai floats in space, free of gravity, he transmits, “From here I send greetings to the Chinese people and to the world’s people.”
Two more taikonauts accompany Zhai on the flight: Liu Boming and Jing Haipeng. On the spacewalk, Liu follows him part way out of the hatch to assist. At one point, a sensor error triggers a fire alarm. Fire is one of the most feared dangers of spaceflight and at that very moment the Shenzhou

7 loses contact with Earth. The passing moments seem like an eternity, but when contact is reestablished all is well, and Liu can be heard advising Zhai, “Come on and let’s carry out this mission, anyway." As Zhai floats in space, Liu hands him a Chinese flag to wave. Later, from the capsule, Liu talks to his family who ask what space is like. He replies, “There are stars below my feet that twinkle. It’s so, so beautiful.”
The People’s Republic of China released a pair of 2008 coins honoring the spacewalk. Their obverse shows the solar system map designed by Min. The reverse, created by designer and engravers Song Yingchun and Jin Yaxuan, shows a tethered astronaut above the Earth. The mintages were 30,000 for the 1/3 Oz. Gold 150 Yuan and 60,000 for the 1 Oz. Silver 10 Yuan. These coins were all struck at the Shenyang Mint. That same year the Shanghai Mint produced a goldcolored medal with a color image of the spacewalk on one side. Xinhua News also reported that the China Collectors Association released 1,000 sets of three gold-plated silver spacewalk medals with jade inlays.
The next step to the Moon, the Chang’e 2, launched on October 1, 2010. Its primary task was to test the technology for an unmanned lunar soft landing. Beyond that, Chang’e 2 had a second mission. In 1772, the mathematician JosephLouis LaGrange calculated that there are points in space where all gravitational and orbital motion forces are in equilibrium. In such a spot, an object can remain suspended indefinitely. These zones are now called L points, and scientists have identified five of them in our solar system. After Chang'e 2 completes its survey work of the Moon, its next destination is point L2, some 930,000 miles from Earth.
Themathematicalprecisionandnavigationalcontrolneeded to make this journey a success is excruciatingly exact. L2 was chosen because it lies in Earth’s shadow and the darkness there provides superb views of space. Seventy-seven days after exiting its Moon orbit, Chang'e 2 arrives safely at L2. “This is […] The first time a satellite leaves the Moon's orbit for such a journey,” observed Huang Hao, Chief Designer of Chang'e 2.
Chang'e 2 set the stage for China’s first Moon landing. On December 1, 2013, like an arrow from Hou Yi’s bow, Chang’e 3 lifts off from Xichang Satellite Launch Center. Its mission is to make the first soft landing on the Moon in decades. Aboard is a Lunar Landing Vehicle (LLV) and a lunar rover named Yu Tu, or Jade Rabbit — the name in legend of Lady Chang’e’s pet.
On December 6, Chang’e 3 reaches lunar orbit. Eight days later the LLV safely lands on the Moon’s surface in an area called the Mare Imbrium (“Sea of Rains”). The six-wheeled, solarpowered Yu Tu rover rolls off its platform and begins to explore the lunar surface with a stereo camera and three scientific instruments. The Jade Rabbit was specified for 90 days of operation but continued to function for 31 months. Amazingly, seven years later the LLV is still going!

A set of two 2014 coins, “China Lunar Exploration Program’s First Successful Moon Landing,” honors Chang’e 3. It includes a 1/4 Oz. Gold 100 Yuan (10,000 minted) and a 1 Oz. Silver 10 Yuan (20,000 minted). Both coins portray the lunar lander and Jade Rabbit and were designed and struck at the Guobao Mint in Shenzhen. The design of the gold coin is by Qiu Yanxin, while the silver is the work of Zhong Chengxin and Deng Shanshan.
Forty years after China’s space program started, a 2015 100 Yuan banknote captures the spirit of an entire adventure. Its reverse shows a bird, the ancient symbol of flight. Directly above is the biplane constructed and flown by Feng Ru, China’s first aviator. Over that appears the first jet airliner produced in China. Next, the Tiangong 2 Space Station takes us into the heavens. At the very top is the Chang’e 1 satellite, China’s first step to redeem Hou Yi’s ancient wish to join Chang’e on the Moon. Together with the banknote, a 10 Yuan bimetallic space coin was also issued.
Those are the most recent space-themed commemoratives of the People’s Republic of China. But, just as scientists are eager to examine the Moon rock samples that Chang’e 5 brought to Earth, collectors eagerly await the next chapter of China’s space coin program.

Popularly regarded as America’s most beautiful coin and affectionately known in numismatics as the “Saint,” the SaintGaudens Double Eagle is attributed to one man, sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens (1848-1907). Unbeknownst to most people, it took a team of sculptors to produce the gold coin’s design.
The obverse design, which is our focus here, is based on the sculpture “Victory,” part of the Sherman Monument, located near an entrance to Central Park in New York City. The monument portrays General William Tecumseh Sherman on his horse with an allegorical, winged goddess known as Victory leading his horse.
It is that depiction of Victory that was the model for the obverse design of the SaintGaudens Double Eagle. In 1892 SaintGaudens had been awarded the commission for the monument. He began working on it in his New York City studio that year, then continued work on it in Paris, France, during the late 1890s, before finishing the sculpture in his Cornish, New Hampshire studio in 1903. The Sherman Monument was dedicated May 30, 1903 in New York City and was SaintGaudens’ last great public commission before his death.
good. I will say nothing though that may influence your decision. I thought it possible that the war might have made it necessary for you to return via France and then we might have discussed the plan with more leisure than before.”
The book’s author explained that the “offer” to which SaintGaudens alluded was his proposal that Helen work as his assistant on the General Sherman monument. Helen accepted his offer, and she and Mary returned to Paris. I thought, “Wow! She really did work on the sculpture that was to become the model for the Saint.”

To my amazement, I found that Mears indeed did most of the sculpting on Victory, albeit under the direction of Augustus Saint-Gaudens, who was seriously ill; he would soon be diagnosed with cancer. One art historian noted, “Given his illness, he relied on assistants to carry out much of the physical work.” While Mears modeled Victory, Alexander Phimister Proctor (1860-1950), known for his sculptures of animals, created General Sherman’s horse.
A couple years ago, after a lifetime in numismatics, I learned that Helen Farnsworth Mears (1871-1916), a sculptor from my hometown of Oshkosh, Wisconsin, served as Augustus SaintGaudens’ first female assistant and remained his lifelong friend. Mears grew up about a mile from my house. “Very interesting,” I thought, “I know it’s a long shot, but is it possible that she could have worked on the design for the Saint?”
To my surprise, a book about Mears quoted a May 14, 1898 letter from Saint-Gaudens, sent to her while she was studying in Italy with her sister Mary: “The offer I made you still holds
Archived documents and personal correspondence between Saint-Gaudens and the Mears sisters provide telling insights into Saint-Gaudens’ persona. After her first meeting with him, Mary Mears remarked, “My introduction to Saint-Gaudens was in my sister’s Latin Quarter studio in the Rue Notre Dame des Champs. He had come to inspect a bust she had started for him; for, like many masters, past and present, he employed the most advanced of his students to assist him in his work. I was fresh from Wisconsin and my chief concern that day was the atelier [artist’s studio], for it had been my responsibility. Would Saint-Gaudens approve the light? Would he think the place suitable for the work in hand? Imagine my relief then, when he turned to me and said: “It’s perfect. I congratulate you, Mademoiselle, on finding such a spot.”
While in Paris in 1898 for the Sherman project, Helen Mears produced both a bust and a bas-relief sculpture of Augustus Saint-Gaudens. Bas-relief is a shallow, threedimensional sculpture, like that on most coins, coincidentally in contrast to the Saint-Gaudens High Relief Double Eagle. The Mears’ bas-relief piece shows a portion of the Sherman Monument in the background and was a favorite of the SaintGaudens family. Several copies of it were cast.
From May to November 1898, Helen Mears worked half days on Victory for Saint-Gaudens. Saint-Gauden's objective for the sculpture was to convey a look of power and forward motion. He was a perfectionist, and he made endless changes to the monument before it was finished to his satisfaction. Augusta, his wife, sewed countless tiny cloaks from which to model folds in the general’s cloak, and likely did so for Victory as well.
Besides Mears and Proctor, a few other sculptors are noted as having worked in Saint-Gaudens’ Paris studio. One of these additional artists is widely familiar to numismatists and is none other than James Earle Fraser (1876-1953), the designer of the Buffalo Nickel. Two other sculptors who worked with Saint-Gaudens in 1898 were Henry Hering (1874-1949) and his future wife, Elsie Ward (1871-1923).
Reminiscing many years after her sister died, Mary Mears recalled some of the experiences the Saint-Gaudens team had together. “It was impossible to associate with Saint-Gaudens daily, as we were doing, without becoming acquainted with his friends, not only with those with whom he was in contact at the moment, but those who had vanished from human sight

as well […] At the time of which I write, [Frederick William] MacMonnies, [James Abbott McNeill] Whistler, and SaintGaudens were in the habit of dining together at Foyot’s.” To his friends, Augustus Saint-Gaudens was known as “Gus.” According to Mary, “One such incident I heard described, partly by my sister and partly by Mr. Saint-Gaudens. Perched on a ladder, my sister was modeling on the Sherman monument, under his direction, when Whistler, dressed in the
odd style he affected, with his white lock and pointed beard, entered the studio. He wanted the sculptor [Gus] to go with him to the Louvre.” Working in Paris provided the SaintGaudens team with wonderful opportunities to study many of the world’s greatest works of art.
Before the Sherman Monument was installed in New York in 1903, the Sherman plaster and that of Victory were exhibited in the Paris Salon of 1899, the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1900, and the Pan-American Exposition of 1901 in Buffalo, New York. The French loved his work so much that Saint-Gaudens was awarded the French Legion of Honor in 1901. He wrote his son Homer, humorously remarking, “I’ve got a swelled head for the first time in my life. I have become a harmless, drooling, gibbering idiot, sitting all day long looking at the statue. Occasionally I fall on my knees and adore it.”
Requiring surgery in the summer of 1900, Saint-Gaudens moved back to his Cornish, New Hampshire, residence, which is now a national historical park. With him came several assistants who worked in the Paris studio. They remained at Saint-Gaudens’ Cornish studios until his passing in 1907, and a few stayed on after his death to finish commissions that had been started. During this time, continual improvements were made on the Sherman Monument, right up to its installation in New York. Fraser stated, “As I recall it there were 15 of us working at one time […] It was like Donatello at Padua except he had 21 sculptors to help him.”
During that time, one assistant sculptor, Robert Treat Paine, perfected the pointing machine used by Saint-Gaudens. Called a “cubical pantograph,” the machine increased the speed and accuracy of previous machines which were used to increase small models to monumental proportions.
Fortuitously, Saint-Gaudens had met President Theodore Roosevelt at the Pan-American Exposition in 1901. A few years later, he spent time in Washington, D.C., serving on a committee that oversaw changes to the mall. Roosevelt had a dream to redesign the nation’s coinage to a higher artistic standard and, over a dinner in 1905, convinced Saint-Gaudens to take on the project. The famous sculptor submitted preliminary sketches in 1905 and in January 1906 was given the go-ahead to begin the project. He became the first artist not affiliated with the U.S. Mint to design a U.S. coin.
Saint-Gaudens’ health was worsening and one of his assistants, Henry Hering, was charged with carrying out most of the work on the models for the double eagle. At the same time, his team was also busy working on the Saint-Gaudens $10 gold coin. During February 1907, the United States Mint made three trial strikes of the $20, and then the reverse die cracked. They found that each ultra-high relief coin required seven strikes at 150 tons of pressure. That many strikes and the time it took to achieve the level of perfection they desired were unacceptable for producing coins for general circulation. Unfortunately, as these early strikes were hitting the coin presses, Augustus Saint-Gaudens passed away on August 3, 1907. During the end of August and early September of that year, 500 high-relief examples of the double eagle were laboriously coined, but they couldn’t be used for everyday commerce because of the difficulty in striking them. Charles Barber, chief engraver of the U.S. Mint, reworked the design to flatten the relief so the coins could be more efficiently struck. Although Helen Farnsworth Mears passed away in her New York studio in 1916 at just 43 years of age, she had the pleasure of seeing the Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle, which was based on her creation of Victory, used in commerce. Living in the shadow of a great man, Mears and the other assistant sculptors who modeled the Sherman Monument, Victory, and the double eagle remain unknown by most numismatists today. Their memorial lies in the glorious coins themselves.

What’s the most magical money on Earth? Some might say Disney Dollars, a type of scrip currency issued by The Walt Disney Company for use in its various theme parks throughout the United States as well as the Disney Store, Disney cruise ships, and at certain venues on Disney’s private Caribbean island, known as Castaway Cay. Issued from 1987 through 2016, Disney Dollars have become highly collectible, increasingly scarce, and quite valuable.
One reason Disney Dollars have become such hot commodities is that they enjoy robust crossover appeal. Widely collected in the exonumia circles, they see a huge following among collectors of Disneyana, a large collectibles genre encompassing a range of Disney products, including animation cels, licensed apparel, dolls, company stock certificates, and virtually anything else bearing the Disney name. And now through March 31, 2021, collectors can submit their Disney Dollars through the PCGS Banknote Modern Service for just $15.
The forerunner of the Disney Dollar was the Disney World Recreation Coupon, which was originally printed in 1971 – the same year Walt Disney World opened in Florida. These were produced in limited quantities and, while lacking cash value, they were distributed to small numbers of guests to commemorate the opening of the resort complex near Orlando. These pieces have since become quite scarce, with top-quality specimens worth hundreds, even thousands of dollars. The 1971 issues are more common than those issued in 1972, and both are highly desirable today.
Many years later, another chapter opened for Disney scrip with the creation of Disney Dollars. The brainchild of Disney artist Harry Brice, Disney Dollars were first printed on May 5, 1987, with the initial run known as the “A” series for use at the Disneyland park in Anaheim, California; a few months later a “D” series was unveiled on October 2, 1987 for distribution at the Disney World park in Florida. These pieces were originally printed by EPI Marketing Service in Battle Creek, Michigan, and were made using elaborately designed plates on 100% cotton “paper” to look and feel virtually identical to United States banknotes. The bills feature various anticounterfeiting elements, including microprinting and glitter, and were “signed” by Scrooge McDuck as treasurer.
In all, dozens of different types of Disney Dollars were printed across four denominations ($1, $5, $10, and $50) between 1987 and the discontinuation of the series in 2016. While many Disney Dollars were standard issues, several were printed as limited-run commemorative issues. Among these commemorative pieces was a special $50 denomination released in 2005 recognizing the 50th anniversary of Disneyland, which opened in 1955.
True to Disney’s merry modus operandi, Disney Dollars are anything but staid scrip. Rather, they showcase a cavalcade of Disney’s most popular characters smiling, in action, and frequently engaging in humorous hijinks with other Disney characters. Even though the last Disney Dollars were printed on May 14, 2016, they are still accepted for goods and services at various Disney properties. Of course, like so many numismatic collectibles, Disney Dollars are worth far more than their printed face values, with even the most “common” $1 Disney Dollars trading for anywhere from $50 to $100 and up.

As collectors, what makes us “gaga” over toned coins? I can’t comment on what you may possibly think about this numismatic eye-candy, but I can share with you what goes on in my little brain. My thoughts include, but are not limited to, the following: “It’s unique; it’s beautiful; oh, my gosh I can’t believe this coin looks like it came out of a bag of Skittles; it’s amazing to view... and... I must buy it!” Maybe you feel as passionately about toning as I do… or maybe you don’t. Then again, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. While toning and eye appeal is unquestionably a matter of personal preference, most collectors agree on what is attractive and what is not. For a look at what the graders at PCGS feel is attractive and what isn’t, check out www.PCGS.com/eyeappeal
Those of us who do prefer toning may not appreciate purple (not the artist formerly known as Prince though, he made Purple Rain), others may not like moss tones, and some may like lighter pastel neon tones as opposed to monochromatic tones. “To each their own,” as the cliché goes. Toning enthusiasts are from all corners of the world. Many are found within the PCGS Set Registry, where they update their sets on a regular basis. Our members have been gracious enough to share their toned delights with us to view. These coins may be found under the category of “Collectors Showcase” under the sub-category titled “Toned Coins” within the following link: www.PCGS.com/setregistry/collectors-showcase/toned-coins/114.
One of many sets within the Set Registry that can be viewed under Toned Coins includes “Brad’s Toned Coins,” which includes an assortment of U.S. coins, including his beautiful 1976-S Proof Bicentennial Quarter. “South African Toned” is what a member titled their set, and the last coin displayed is a 1989 Rand dubbed by the collector as “Escaping Fire,” boasts an array of sunshine yellow and other mesmerizing hues you must check out for yourself. Finally, “Canada Toned Coins” displays a 1966 50 Cents graded PCGS AU58 showcasing a reverse that was probably made in the Everlasting Gobstoppers division by Willy Wonka at his famous chocolate factory!
A memorable toned coin I cataloged in the past was an English Six Pence that had sea-green peripheral tones within
the legends on the obverse, followed by sky blues, purples, magenta, orange, and finally sunshine yellow. About 50% of the coin was covered in these vivid iridescent colors. The center and remainder of the coin was a satin snow-white with subtle glowing luster. This type of toning that is described here is also known as “target toning” by enthusiasts. What intrigued me the most about this coin was the intensity of the color. Somehow, a chemical reaction randomly, over time, created a masterpiece like I had never seen before.
Toning enthusiasts continue seeking unique examples to add to their collections, but simultaneously “Artificial Toning” (commonly shorthanded as “AT”) continues to plague the hobby. Misleading practices that speed up the toning process have been used over the years to create toned delights for hobbyists. Although it may take time to develop a sense of what is “AT” versus “natural toning,” consult those who can share their experiences with you about toned coins. By gaining experience, your “Spidey-senses” will become fine-tuned with experience and time.
No standard pricing exists for toned coins, as each coin is unique; its value is generally what someone is willing to pay within the marketplace. I believe toning creates character and adds depth to the overall beauty of a coin. Toned marvels often command multiple premiums over what a traditional run-of-the-mill coin may bring in terms of price. I believe toned coins have been a trend that’s been steadily growing a collector base worldwide each year. Therefore, I don’t believe toning is just a fad. Here today and not gone tomorrow… It’s here to stay. Happy collecting!

When I first got serious about Carson City gold (around 1984-85), I quickly learned how rare the eagles from the 1870s were, especially in higher grades. As I learned the market, it quickly became apparent that the 1870-CC was the rarest eagle in the series and for a long time I regarded it as a rarer coin than the similarly dated double eagle (it’s not…). Coming in second was the 1879-CC, an issue with the lowest mintage figure of any Carson City gold coin and a genuinely scarce issue in any grade.
Fast forward three decades, and the 1879-CC has lost some of the cachet it used to have. Today, collectors regard the 1873-CC and the 1877-CC more highly than the 1879-CC, despite the fact that the 1879-CC is clearly rarer overall.
Let’s look at PCGS populations for the six scarcest Carson City Eagles:
1870-CC 3 52
1872-CC 8 70 1873-CC 2 56
1877-CC 4 62 1878-CC 9 67
1879-CC 5 45
From this chart, we can determine that the 1879-CC lays claim to being the rarest CC Eagle, at least in terms of total number graded (there are a number of low grade 1870-CC eagles known, which inflates this date’s overall population). The 1873-CC is also almost as rare as the 1870-CC. However, the status of the 1870-CC as a first-year-of-issue piece will always make it a higher-priced coin than the 1873-CC or the 1879-CC.
What I find very interesting are the number of coins graded AU55 or finer for each of these issues. PCGS has graded just two 1873-CC Eagles in very high grades: one each in AU55
and AU58. This makes it narrowly rarer in this range than the 1870-CC (three graded), the 1877-CC (four graded), and the 1879-CC (five graded). But as you can see, very little separates these four issues when it comes to coins graded AU55 and finer.
Now let’s take a look at the PCGS Price Guide for each of these dates in AU55 and in AU58: DATE
1870-CC $150,000
1872-CC $42,500 $70,000
1873-CC $75,000 $97,500
1877-CC $65,000 $105,000
1878-CC $50,000 $80,000
1879-CC $62,500 $75,000
One thing that stands out for me about these numbers is the fact that the 1879-CC — with a population of just two coins in AU58 and none finer — appears clearly underpriced in AU58. In 2019, the only known PCGS AU58 example of the 1873-CC eagle was sold in a deal where it exchanged hands for close to $100,000, while an 1877-CC graded “AU58” by an alternative grading service brought slightly over $100,000 in the Heritage February 2018 sale. Given those two prices, I believe an 1879-CC should take closer to $85,000-90,000 in AU58. Based on the condition census, clearly a curious case!

My name is Ethan Opdahl, and I am a 19-year-old coin dealer from Rockville, Maryland. I initially began collecting coins a decade ago when I came across an accumulation of coins in one of my grandfather’s desk drawers. As soon as I laid eyes on the coins, I was hooked. Not only was I intrigued by the variety offered by numismatics, but I was also fascinated by the intricate artwork and incredible history behind the pieces.
I first examined a coin strictly based on its age. But soon I learned that many other factors influence their value, such as mintage, grade, and eye appeal. Over the past decade, my numismatic journey has taken many forms. In the beginning, I was solely a collector. At first, I focused on putting together a type set of United States coins, but eventually moved on to collecting coins based on their eye appeal. Though there is clear historical significance behind most coins, at the end of the day, I believe coins are meant to be visually admired. While I picture the Civil War when looking at a mid-19th-century Liberty Seated Half Dollar or muse over Washington’s presidency when examining a circulated 1795 Flowing Hair Large Cent, I have always preferred coins with magnificent toning.
This pursuit of incredible coins eventually led me into the world of coin dealing. Though the coin industry was once hard to break into, luckily the process has been made much easier in the age of social media. When I wanted to begin dealing in coins, all I had to do was start an Instagram account: @marylandcoins. Fortunately, there was already a relatively established coin dealing community on the platform. Over the past four years, I have been gradually growing that account and fostering incredible relationships with the members of that community.
Honestly, I have made some of my best friends through the Instagram coin community, and I would imagine that I am not alone. Recently, I also started evaluating inherited coin collections. While I began by strictly assessing the collections of friends and family, word of my services gradually spread. Though most of the collections that I evaluate, and purchase are relatively standard, I have uncovered some truly extraordinary pieces.
My favorite among these finds are two uncirculated 1893CC Morgan Dollars that had been tucked away in paper flips for half a century. I will never forget opening the flips and seeing the date “1893.” Obviously, I wanted to turn the coins over to a San Francisco mint mark, but I was still thrilled to see that the coins were minted in Carson City. As soon as I saw the coins, their next destination was clear: PCGS. In my eyes, Professional Coin Grading Service is the standard in rare coin grading, so I would never even imagine sending those two prized coins anywhere else.
In the future, I hope to continue participating in the numismatic industry. While there is an obvious allure to the coins themselves, I am far more drawn to the wonderful people I have met through my involvement. One would expect that young people would face stigmas when breaking into an industry dominated by an older demographic, but I have been met with nothing but kindness and mentorship. In other words, while I came for the coins, I stayed for the people.
The prices listed in the RCMR and online are designed to represent a fair retail asking price from a knowledgeable seller to a knowledgeable buyer. Many factors can influence the value of a rare coin in a given PCGS grade. As no two vintage rare coins are exactly alike, and as grades represent a range rather than a point on a scale, fair asking prices (and prices realized at auctions) may sometimes vary from the prices listed herein.
Some of the factors that can result in prices being above the RCMR/Price Guide listing include:
1. Exceptional eye appeal or particularly attractive toning – usually in multicolored hues and shades.
2. A coin that falls at the upper end of the grade range.
3. Endorsement of the PCGS grade by another third-party service.
4. A coin graded a number of years ago, to some, adds to its appeal and value.
5. Two buyers at an auction, both with sufficient funds and both highly desirous of owning a particular coin, will often cause a “runaway” result.
Some of the factors that can result in prices being below the RCMR/Price Guide listing include:
1. Unattractive, dark, or splotchy toning – poor eye appeal.
2. A coin that falls at the lower end of the grade range.
3. Lack of retail demand at an auction may result in an abnormally low price realized.
4. A sudden change in the population report, such as a new “finest-known” piece being certified, the appearance of a small hoard, or the certification of another example in the identical grade.
5. A particular dealer’s desire or need to reduce inventory or raise money may result in an offering below the general market.
Infrequently traded coins with little or no track record over the past decade or so can be very difficult to properly value, and the offering of such a coin may bring a price well in excess or well below the price listed in the RCMR or online PCGS Price Guide. Many scarce-date Liberty gold coins fall into this category. Other values that can be highly variable include coins that lack a modifier, such as non-FSB Mercury Dimes, non-Full Head Standing Liberty Quarters, etc. Coins that “just miss” qualifying can often bring far higher prices than those that are not close to qualifying.
Keep in mind that the values listed are only a guide. Many coins offered above the prices listed here may be extremely fair buys and well worth the dealer’s asking price or the price paid at an auction. Conversely, coins can sometimes be found below the prices listed here due to a variety of reasons. Remember – use this guide as a part of your pricing research effort, not the only source.

The PCGS Rare Coin Market Report is published bi-monthly by the Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS). The prices listed in the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide are meant to serve as a guide to assist the rare coin buying public in determining values for all significant United States coins. Before you use the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide, you should read the following information very carefully.
The prices listed in the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide are average dealer asking prices for PCGS-graded United States coins. The prices are compiled from various sources, including dealer ads in trade papers, dealer fixed price lists and websites, major auctions, and activity at major coin shows. The prices are what you should expect to pay, on average, for PCGSgraded coins. Note that RCMR prices do not apply to coins which have not been graded by PCGS, coins that have been graded by other grading services, or non-third party graded coins where the grade is represented by the seller, may not have been graded by the same standards as PCGS-graded coins and their market value may be different.
Prices for U.S. rare coins can and do change frequently. Prices for more generic issues can move weekly and even daily. The PCGS Rare Coin Market Report is a bi-monthly publication and is subject to lead times for printing and mailing. Prices listed in the RCMR are derived from the more comprehensive PCGS Online Price Guide (www.PCGS.com). RCMR prices are the prices listed in the PCGS Online Price Guide the day the
RCMR is sent to the printer. For up-to-date prices, check the PCGS Online Price Guide on www.PCGS.com/prices.
Some U.S. coin prices are very sensitive to movements in the price of silver, gold, and platinum, and the prices of these metals change daily. Bullion-sensitive U.S. coins include most silver, gold and platinum Eagles, gold Buffalo, lower-grade examples of the more common date pre-1933 U.S. gold coins, and some modern gold commemoratives. As of February 2021, metals prices were approximately: Gold: $1,795 Silver: $27.25 Platinum: $1,262
Price changes are indicated by an arrow to the right of the price. A green arrow pointing up indicates a price that has moved up since the previous issue of the RCMR. A red arrow pointing down indicates a price that has moved down since the previous issue of the RCMR.
The PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide lists prices for all regular-issue and commemorative United States coins minted from 1792 to date. Prices are listed for regular strikes, proofs and some special strikes. Prices are listed for all dates and mint marks and all major varieties. Prices are also listed for “type.” This listing appears at the start of each section for each type of coin and refers to the price for the most common date of a particular type.
There are 30 grades used by PCGS to grade coins, 1 being the lowest grade and 70 being the highest grade. Space considerations do not allow the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report to list prices for every grade. Consequently, the RCMR lists prices for up to 10 grades for individual coins. Grades listed are at intervals that should be the most useful to coin buyers. For “in-between” grades, readers should refer to the PCGS Online Price Guide. The RCMR lists prices at the highest end of the grading scale for the highest grade known, either graded by PCGS or known to exist in that grade. The RCMR does not list prices for fantasy grades, i.e. grades higher than are known to exist for a certain coin. The RCMR lists prices for coins with special striking designations, such as full bands, red color, prooflike surfaces, etc. For a description of all the grades and designations used in the RCMR, refer to the PCGS Grading Standards listed in this issue.
The PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide lists complete set prices for many coin series. There are three types of complete set prices. A “date set” is a set of one of each date
of a particular series. A “date and mint mark” set is a set that includes every date and mint mark in a series. A “with major varieties” set is a set with one of every date, mint mark and major variety. Prices for complete sets are listed “per grade,” i.e. the price for the complete set if every coin in the set was in the particular grade listed.
Besides prices for every coin, the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide lists the PCGS population, i.e. the number of coins graded by PCGS, for each coin.
The coin market is volatile and thinly capitalized. Significant short-term price swings are always possible. Collectors Universe, its principals, and representatives do not guarantee a profit nor guarantee against a loss for any coin you buy or sell based on the information in the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide Collectors Universe, its principals, and representatives also do not guarantee the accuracy of the information in the PCGS Rare Coin Market Report Price Guide. You buy and sell rare coins at your own risk. The following are the general grading standards for both regular strikes and proofs.
Space does not permit us to show a comprehensive photographic grading guide here, but those interested in a detailed look at virtually all U.S. coins in all grades are referred to PCGS’s Photograde section, found at www.PCGS.com/photograde
For regular strikes, the primary attribute for circulated grades, i.e. Poor (PO01) to About Uncirculated (AU58), is the amount of wear or the amount of the original design detail that is still evident. Other attributes contributing to the grade for circulated regular strikes are surface preservation and eye appeal, either of which can be positive, negative, or neutral and which affect the grade accordingly. For regular strikes in Uncirculated condition (MS60 to MS70), there are four primary attributes that determine grade: marks, strike, luster and eye appeal.
The completeness/incompleteness of a coin’s intended detail when originally struck.
The strength and pattern of light reflected off a coin.
The condition of the surface of a coin, notably marks and/or scratches.
The element that “grabs” the viewer. The overall look of a coin. Often manifested as “toning.”
A PCGS MS70 is a modern coin in "as struck by Mint" condition. Minor mintmade imperfections may be present. No damage or imperfections caused after minting. Not known in vintage coins.
A PCGS MS69 will show only one or two miniscule imperfections. Must be
fully struck and have full original luster and eye appeal.
APCGSMS68 will have some extremely minor imperfections. Must be sharply struck, have full original luster, and good eye appeal.
A PCGS MS67 will have some minor imperfections (marks, abrasions, etc). Must be well struck and have good luster and eye appeal.
A PCGS MS66 will have a few marks and/or abrasions. The strike, luster, and eye appeal must be good.
A PCGS MS65 will have some marks and/or abrasions, but they will be minor. The strike must be above average, and luster and eye appeal must be good.
A PCGS MS64 will have some marks and/or abrasions, and they may be significant. The strike and eye appeal should be average or above and must not be negative. Luster may be somewhat subdued.
A PCGS MS63 will have marks and abrasions that are moderate in number and/or size. Strike may not be full and eye appeal can be slightly negative. Luster may be somewhat dull.
APCGSMS62 willhavenowearonhigh points. There may be considerable marks and abrasions and some may be severe. Strike may not be full and eye appeal may be negative. Luster may be dull.
A PCGS MS61 will have no wear on the high points. There may be multiple heavy marks and abrasions. Strike may not be full, luster may be dull, and/or eye appeal may be negative.
A PCGS MS60 will have no wear on the high points. There may be many heavy marks and abrasions. Strike may not be full, luster may be very dull, and/or eye appeal may be quite negative.
A PCGS AU58 will show full detail with minor friction on only the highest points.
A PCGS AU55 will show full detail with friction on less than 1/2 of the surface, mainly on the high points.
A PCGS AU53 will show full detail with friction on 1/2 or more of the surface. There may be a very slight flatness on high points.
A PCGS AU50 will show full detail with friction over most of the surface and slight flatness on high points.
XF45 Detail is complete with most high points slightly flat.
XF40 Detail is complete with some high points flat.
VF35 Detail is 80 to 85% complete.
VF30 Detail is 70 to 80% complete.
VF25 Detail is 60 to 70% complete.
VF20 Detail is 50 to 60% complete.
F15 Detail is full in recessed areas. All lettering is sharp.
F12 Detail is evident in deeply recessed areas. Lettering is mostly sharp.
VG10 Design is worn with some detail evident.
VG08 Design is worn with only slight detail evident.
G06 Detail is flat, but rims are complete. Peripheral lettering is full.
G04 Detail is flat. Rims slightly worn. Peripheral lettering nearly full.
AG03 Rims are worn but most lettering is readable though worn.
FR02 Mostly worn, but some design details are visible.
PO01 Barely identifiable as to date and type.
Forproofstrikings,theprimaryattributes of grade are hairlines and/or marks (or lack of), reflectivity (for brilliant proofs), andeyeappeal.Notethatnearlyallproofs are fully struck, thus strike is usually not a factor. Strike only comes into play when a proof shows a partial strike, resulting in a downward adjustment of grade. Note that for toned brilliant proofs, the reflectivity is as perceived under toning.
A PCGS PR70 shows no imperfections under five-power magnification. Brilliant proofs must be 100% fully reflective.
A PCGS PR69 will show only one or two miniscule imperfections. Brilliant proofs must be 100% fully reflective.
A PCGS PR68 will have some extremely minor imperfections. Eye appeal must be outstanding. Brilliant proofs will be fully reflective.
A PCGS PR67 will have some minor
imperfections (hairlines or perhaps an extremelyminormarkortwo).Eyeappeal must be very good. Brilliant proofs must be fully reflective or virtually so.
A PCGS PR66 will have a few hairlines and/or very minor marks. Eye appeal must be very good. Brilliant proofs must be fully reflective or nearly so.
A PCGS PR65 will have minor hairlines and or minor marks. Eye appeal must be positive. Brilliant proofs must show good reflectivity.
A PCGS PR64 will have noticeable hairlines and/or small marks. Eye appeal must not be negative. Brilliant proofs may have subdued reflectivity.
A PCGS PR63 will have obvious hairlines and/or marks. Eye appeal may be somewhat negative. Brilliant proofs may be dull.
A PCGS PR62 will have numerous hairlines and/or marks. Eye appeal may be quite negative. Brilliant proofs may be dull.
A PCGS PR6l will have lots of hairlines and/or marks. Eye appeal is negative. Brilliant proofs may not be reflective.
A PCGS PR60 will have no wear on the high points, but will be very hairlined and/or marked. Eye appeal is negative. Brilliant proofs may not be reflective. Proofs below PR60 For proof strikings grading below PR60, the grading is based on the amount of wear and the standards are the same as for regular strikes.
In addition to grade, certain coins have characteristics that collectors recognize as important and PCGS designates these characteristics using the standards that follow.
Color for Copper Coins (MS60 or better)
Brown (BN) PCGS designates Brown for copper coins that have less than 5% of their original mint red color.
Full Steps (FS) PCGS designates Full Steps for Jefferson Nickels that grade MS60 or better and show a full five or six steps in the portrait of Monticello (Thomas Jefferson’s home) on the reverse. To qualify for this designation, a coin must also have no major disturbances, including cuts and marks, to the separation of the steps.
Full Bands (FB) PCGS designates Full Bands for Roosevelt Dimes that grade MS60 or better and show full separation of the upper and lower horizontal bands of the torch on the reverse. To qualify for this designation, a coin must also show no significant cuts or marks across the horizontal bands.
Red Brown (RB) PCGS designates Red and Brown for copper coins that grade MS60 or better and show between 5% and 95% of their original mint red color.
Red (RD) PCGS designates Red for copper coins that grade MS60 or better and show 95% or more of their original mint red color.
Full Bands (FB) PCGS designates Full Bands for Mercury Dimes that grade MS60 or better and show full separation of the central crossbands on the crossbands on the reverse. To qualify for this designation, a coin must also have no major disturbances, including cuts and marks, of the separation of the crossbands.
Full Head (FH) PCGS designates Full Head for Standing Liberty Quarters that grade AU50 or better and show full detail of Ms. Liberty’s hair (on Type Ones) or helmet (on Type Twos); Type Ones (1916-1917) must show a distinct separation between the hair cords and the cap. Type Twos (1917-1930) must show three complete and distinct leaves to the helmet, a complete outline to the bottom of the helmet, and a distinct ear hole. Note that on the ultra-rare 1918/7S, PCGS will designate Full Head on coins that grade XF40 or better and that meet the Full Head criteria.
Full Head for Standing Liberty Quarters
Full Bell Lines (FBL) PCGS designates Full Bell Lines for Franklin Half Dollars that grade MS60 or better and show full separation of the lines on the bottom of the Liberty Bell on the reverse. To qualify for this designation, a coin must also show no major disturbances, including cuts and marks, of the separation of the bell lines.
Prooflike (PL) PCGS designates Prooflike for coins that grade MS60 or better and show clear reflectivity, i.e. mirrored surfaces at a distance of two to four inches. If the cartwheel effect or striations cause an area to lose clarity, the designation will not apply.
DeepMirrorProoflike(DMPL) PCGS designates Deep Mirror Prooflike for Morgan Dollars that grade MS60 or better and show deep reflectivity, i.e. deeply mirrored surfaces. The differences between PL and DMPL is one of degree.
Cameo(CAM) PCGSdesignatesCameo for brilliant proofs that show light to moderate frosting of the devices. Both sides of a coin must have frosted devices to earn the Cameo designation.
PCGS does not grade coins that are counterfeit, have been artificially toned, have had their surfaces altered, have been environmentally damaged, have been abrasively cleaned, have extremely large scratches, or have been repaired. Some allowances are made for ultra rarities, colonials, and territorial gold coins, in which there are some instances when “net grading” is used by PCGS as a service to the numismatic community.

1. Consignor agrees that the Auction shall be conducted online by GreatCollections according to the Terms and Conditions published at www.greatcollections.com/terms. This agreement is subject to Arbitration.
2. Consignor warrants that: (1) Consignor is the legal owner of and has full title and interest in the coins/items consigned to GreatCollections; (2) all coins/items consigned to GreatCollections are free and clear of any liens, encumbrances, security interests or contract rights restricting the unconditional right to sell all rights, title and interest in and to such coin/item; and (3) all consigned coins/items are authentic and in respect to certified coins, holders have not been tampered with or resealed.
3. Consignor agrees to pay GreatCollections a Listing Fee for each coins/items offered by Auction and for coins/items sold, a Seller’s Fee. All fees are detailed on the reverse of the Consignment Agreement.
4. In the event that your coins do not sell in their first Auction, GreatCollections agrees to relist coins/items up to four additional times. There will be no Listing Fees charged for these four additional relistings. Should you prefer your coins not to be relisted, please note this in the “Special Instructions” box on the Consignment Form.
5. Consignor acknowledges that the Hammer Price is the final bid price accepted by the Auctioneer. The Hammer Price does not include the Buyer’s Fee, which GreatCollections retains in full.
6. GreatCollections has the right in its sole discretion to reject any Consignment, to cancel any Auction, to postpone or change the date/time of Auction and/or to rescind any sale. GreatCollections also reserves the right in its sole discretion to cancel or reject any bidder from bidding, when we believe it is not in the Consignor’s and/or GreatCollections’ best interest.
7. A Consignor is able to list a Minimum Bid on every coin/item consigned, according to the three options listed on the Consignment Form. It is up to the Consignor to verify that the correct Minimum Bids are entered as soon as their coins/items are uploaded to the GreatCollections website. Any corrections should be reported as early as possible before the end of the Auction. This Minimum Bid amount is disclosed on all items/coins listed at GreatCollections. Consignor may not withdraw any coin/item for any reason.
8. If the successful bidder or buyer is in default and GreatCollections is not satisfied that the amount due for any particular Consignor’s lot[s] will be paid in full, GreatCollections reserves the right to take one or more of the following actions: (1) declare the sale null and void and return the coins/items to the Consignor; (2) declare the sale null
your coins by logging into MyGC and clicking on “Items Pending” or “Currently Selling”.

GreatCollections is an authorized submitter and can arrange CAC to review your coins prior to auctioning. The process takes about 10 days. Cost is $15 for coins valued up to $10,000, $30 for coins valued up to $25,000 and $50 for coins valued at over $25,000.
Minimum Bids: We offer three convenient ways to set Minimum Bids at GreatCollections.
1. You may select GreatCollections to establish a Minimum Bid based on our knowledge of the coin market. We usually set opening bids at 70% of what we believe the coins are worth in today’s market. This is our recommended option that we have found to generate the most bidding activity while protecting you with a Minimum Bid.
2. You may select a percentage of the Values you have listed on the reverse of this form to use as Minimum Bids. Please check either the 50%, 65% or 80% option.
3. You may select that all coins start at a Minimum Bid of $1. This is recommended for liquid/popular coins and is used regularly by dealers, investors and representatives of estates.
Regretfully, we cannot accept consignments where the Minimum Bids are higher than 80% of their listed value. If you have any questions regarding setting Minimum Bids, please call us at 1.800.44.COINS (+1.949.679.4180) or e-mail info@GreatCollections.com.
Seller’s Fees: Our Seller’s fees are a low 5% for coins up to $1000, and 0% for coins over $1,000.
Consignment Proceeds: Checks are mailed within 30 days of your coin(s) selling. To confirm the payment date, please login to your account at GreatCollections, click on MyGC and “View Consignor Statements”.
and void and reoffer the coins/items in another Auction; and/or (3) proceed against buyer on behalf of Consignor. In addition, GreatCollections offers a return privilege to Buyers. Should your coin/item be returned, we will cancel the sale and relist your item. In the event that GreatCollections cancels the sale of your coins/items or your coins/ items are returned, all Listing Fees and Seller’s Fees will be refunded to Consignor.
9. If you consign raw coins/items to GreatCollections, we will send your coins/items to a major third party grading service such as PCGS, NGC and/or ANACS. For more information, please refer to the Raw Coin Consignment Form, which can be downloaded at www.greatcollections.com/forms.
10. GreatCollections shall remit to Consignor, within 30 days after the close of the Auction, the net proceeds, which equals the Hammer Price less Seller’s Fees, Listing Fees, Interest for Cash Advances, other monies owed to GreatCollections by Consignor and Cash Advances Principal (in order). In the event the Consignor’s sales do not exceed fees or monies owed to GreatCollections, the Consignor agrees to pay GreatCollections all monies owed within seven days of invoice date. In certain instances, an introductory commission may be paid by GreatCollections to an agent of Consignor for referring the Consignment to GreatCollections.
11. GreatCollections will provide insurance for loss or damage for consigned coins while in the possession of GreatCollections and while any are being shipped back to the Consignor, subject to certain terms and exclusions (such as Earthquake coverage). In the event of an insurance claim, our insurance carrier will pay you the Fair Market Value, less the Seller’s Fees and Buyer’s Fees, based on the total insurance proceeds. This payment to you by the insurance carrier shall completely satisfy our obligations regarding the Consignments under this Agreement.
12. Arbitration. Any claim or dispute arising out of the sale of coins/items by GreatCollections shall be settled by arbitration between the parties in accordance with the rules of the Professional Numismatists Guild (PNG) or if the PNG cannot or will not hear the matter, by the American Arbitration Association (AAA). Any claim must be commenced within three months of the Auction date or Buy Now confirmation or the claim is waived.

Welcome to this edition of Rare Coin Market Report Auction Highlights, where we feature three remarkable coins and banknotes that recently sold at auction. These historic rarities are gems in every respect, each with a fascinating story to tell – and every single one a beloved numismatic treasure.
Most coin collectors and even many non-coin collectors are very familiar with this iconic rarity. Copper was necessary for the military efforts in World War II, compelling the Treasury Department to stop the production of bronze one-cent coins and have the United States Mint switch to using zinccoated steel planchets. However, during the transition, the Philadelphia, Denver, and San Francisco Mints all produced tiny handfuls of these transitional errors. About 20 or so 1943 Copper Lincoln Cents exist from all three mints combined. Six are currently known from the San Francisco Mint, and in November 2020, a 1943-S Copper Lincoln Cent graded PCGS MS63 sold for $504,000.
By Jaime Hernandezthat has been assigned the outstanding MS67 grade, with none higher. This example crossed the block at a November 2020 GreatCollections Auction where it fetched a record $201,137.

The 1795 Flowing Hair Half Dime is one of America’s oldest coins. While the reported mintage is 78,860 for this issue,thevastmajorityhave been lost or damaged over the years. PCGS CoinFacts estimates approximately 3,000 examples survive in all grades combined Aside from being highly scarce, there are about 10 different die marriages known for the 1795 Half Dime. The variety highlighted here that recently sold at auction is catalogued as LM-10. This variety can easily be spotted by the large cud above the letters “TY” of “LIBERTY.” PCGS reports a sole example of the 1795 Half Dime LM-10 variety
The 1918 $500 Fr.1132 Atlanta Federal Reserve Banknote is estimated to yield about a dozen (perhaps fewer) examples. Certainly, these Fr.1132 $500 issues are extremely scarce and quite popular among banknote collectors. The biggest problem is that these notes are very expensive in any condition, so most collectors can only be spectators rather than buyers when it comes to one of these examples hitting the auction floor. On the obverse of this $500 banknote is a portrait of Chief Justice John Marshall, with the denomination of “$500” boldly and elegantly displayed in each of the four corners. The reverse carries a scene by painter William H. Powell titled "Discovery of the Mississippi." It depicts Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto in 1541 riding on a horse and, in the background, a group of Native Americans and numerous soldiers. Above them and to the right of the design is the Mississippi River. As the 1918 $500 Atlanta Federal Banknotes are unquestionably special because of their rarity, significance, and beauty, when an example becomes available at auction it always commands much collector interest. That was certainly the case in December 2020, when a PCGS AU55 example sold for $50,400 by Stack’s Bowers Galleries.

PCGS recently graded an exemplary specimen of the rare 1880 “Black Back” $100 Silver Certificate, a relic from a time when the United States silver dollar was about to enter a new and colorful chapter of existence. This example was graded Choice Very Fine 35 due to limited circulation and minimal wear, with bright inks remaining, and no problems or distractions rising to the level of needing a grade-qualifying comment on the holder.
Well known in the coin community, the “Bland-Allison Act” of 1878 was the impetus that brought the above silver certificate into existence, with the date of its passage printed vertically at the left end of the banknote. The act required the U.S. Treasury to purchase between $2 and $4 million worth of silver from western U.S. mines every month, convert them into silver dollar coins, and in turn create these banknotes which would now be redeemable in said coins.
Known in the hobby as “Black Backs” due to the reverse being printed in black ink with a dark brown tint (as opposed to the later issues in the traditional dark green), these banknotes were issued in denominations of $10, $20, $50, $100, $500, and $1,000. Having an example of any denomination in a collection is a prize, as they are all quite scarce and in constant demand.
Fifth United States President and “Founding Father” James Monroe is featured prominently at the left of the banknote. Monroe held many positions in his climb to the presidency, including secretary of war in the administration of President James Madison. Most interestingly, Monroe was a lieutenant in the Continental Army, playing a major part in the Battle of Trenton; nearly dying from a severed artery, he went on to be recognized for bravery by George Washington, who also promoted him to captain. Monroe was also integral in the negotiation of the Louisiana Purchase. Given his long career as an American statesman, it is fitting that he was honored on a piece of American currency.
The facsimile signatures found on this banknote are those of Register of the Treasury William Starke Rosecrans and Treasurer of the United States Enos H. Nebeker. In office from 1891 to 1893, Nebeker served in the Benjamin Harrison and Grover Cleveland administrations. Rosecrans’s tenure as register of the treasury from 1885 to 1893 seems
like merely a footnote compared to his military career during the United States Civil War. He began as an aide-de-camp to Major General George McClellan, briefly commanded an infantry regiment that included two future U.S. presidents (Rutherford B. Hayes and William McKinley), and became a major general himself.
Given the years that both Rosecrans and Nebeker were in office, this banknote was printed in 1891. That means this issue is a Friedberg #342 (with a known print run of 40,000), as opposed to the Series of 1891 $100 with the same signatures that was created shortly afterward, and it is a true rarity to behold.

Discoveries of rarities, especially in the United States gold coin series, can occur in Paris submissions as tons of United States gold moved its way to Europe. Recently submitted in a three-coin box was an 1859-O Liberty Head $20. The 1859-O $20 is a rare coin, with only 9,100 examples minted and far fewer surviving today.
Founded in 1838 as one of the three original branch facilities of the United States Mint, the New Orleans Mint eventually produced over 427 million gold and silver coins representing 300 different dates and denominations. Yet, the goal of the New Orleans Mint wasn’t to craft collectibles, but rather to create money for commerce – and this could only be accomplished with bullion delivered to the mint. From this, we get several rare “O”-mint coins, scarce mainly due to the lack of production. Since silver and gold were not mined in New Orleans, the bullion came from other circulation-issue coins or deliveries of refined ore from Mexico and California.
transferred to Philadelphia for coining there. The gold that continued to be mined in Dahlonega, Georgia, was coined at the United States Mint branch there. The New Orleans Mint’s source for bullion continued to be foreign coinage, and more was deposited there than at any other United States Mint location. For 1859, just $517,000 had been deposited in gold, from which 9,100 double eagles and 2,300 eagles were struck. These coins were released into circulation in New Orleans, where they traveled and eventually disappeared over time.

During its years of operation, the New Orleans Mint struck $20 gold pieces representing 13 different dates. The highest mintage of these is the 1851-O, which saw 315,000 produced; the lowest mintage is the 1856-O, which saw only 2,250 made. The 1859-O ranks sixth in terms of mintage, following behind the 1856-O, the 1879-O (2,325 struck), 1854-O (3,250 struck), 1860-O (6,600 struck), and 1855-O (8,000 struck). Yet, mintage and survival are two different things, and the 1859-O $20 seems to have fewer survivors than many other dates, making it the third or fourth rarest, depending on the estimators’ list, with some suggesting 75 to 100 coins exist of this date from the 9,100 minted.
By the 1850s, the New Orleans Mint’s gold deposits had shrunk since the opening of the United States Mint in San Francisco. The gold rush deposits could now be easily coined in San Francisco or taken to New York, where they would be
Finding a problem-free original example of an 1859-O is a difficult and expensive task, yet an unadulterated example from Europe appeared in an Express submission from the PCGS Europe office in Paris – and that’s something to write about. The coin graded PCGS AU53, making it just the 11th example at that grade in the PCGS census; only 13 are counted in higher grades. The PCGS Price Guide gives an AU53 1859-O a value of $70,000, with the last sale in a PCGS holder appeared in a June 2018 Stack’s Bowers Galleries auction that saw a specimen hammer for $66,000.
What’s fun about a submission like this is to think about how that coin originally came from New Orleans more than 160 years ago, traveled to Europe, and now is back in the United States for grading. Protected in its secure PCGS holder, the coin is now all but guaranteed to survive well into the future.

The colorful realm of California Fractional coinage brims with myriad pieces struck during the height of the Gold Rush in the late 1840s and 1850s. Before Federal United States coinage was produced at the San Francisco Mint beginning in 1854, various California jewelers produced quarters, half dollars, and dollars made from gold intended for circulation. Many prospectors shipped the gold coinage to family members and loved ones back East, while other pieces remained in circulation into the late 1850s.
One of these interesting private gold pieces is the 1854 25 Cent Defiant Eagle California, attributed to San Francisco watchmaker and jeweler M. Jordan. Catalogued by coin experts Walter Breen and Ronald J. Gillio as BG-220 and further researched at length by numismatic author Robert Leonard, the 1854 25 Cent Defiant Eagle California Fractional
may have been struck to promote the opening of Jordan’s business, located at 130-1/2 Montgomery Street in San Francisco. However, given the small known number of these pieces they may have been executed as patterns.
The coin is believed to have been acquired by Augustus Humbert, who was appointed by President John Tyler to serve as the United States gold assayer for the San Francisco U.S. Assay Office. Humbert had transacted with Moffat & Company, the most reputable private gold coiner that produced, among other coins, the famously iconic 1851 Humbert $50 gold “slugs.” In 1860, Humbert left California to enjoy life in Paris, where he died in 1873. After Humbert’s passing, his coin collection back in California was sold to a coin collector in his early 20s named Andrew C. Zabriskie in the mid-1870s, and around the turn of the 20th century he sold most of his collection.
The specimen shown here is believed to have traced its way from Zabriskie and in the last 40 years has been offered for sale but a couple times. After its sale at a New England Rare Coin Auctions event in 1981 for $12,650, it was soon in the hands of Jeff Garrett. It was then purveyed to Dennis Steinmetz and then William C. O’Connor, the latter owning the coin ever since.
It was recently graded PCGS AU55 and is the only specimen at that level, with just three known in higher grades. The ever-so-lightest trace of wear suggests this piece, while nearly uncirculated, saw use somehow, somewhere. Who handled this coin? What may it have purchased? The mystique, intrigue, and romance of the Old West resonates through the coin’s original luster and pleasing coppery hues.
This unique type, with its Defiant Eagle obverse and “25 Cents” denomination on the reverse, is the heaviest California gold quarter. Fervent bidding should ensue when this pioneer treasure crosses the block during Kagin’s Official Auction of the 2021 ANA National Money Show. It will be just one of the highlights of the William C. O’Connor Collection of Period One California Fractional Gold Coins, which is being sold by Kagin’s and is the second most complete Registry Set
for Period One California Fractional Gold registered on the PCGS Set Registry, with 124 out of 142 possible varieties.
Despite the cancelation of the American Numismatic Association convention, the Kagin’s auction will proceed both live and virtually March 11-12, 2021 and be based out of the San Francisco Bay Area – where this amazing 1854 California Fractional was born more than 165 years ago. For more information about the upcoming auction and to take advantage of a special opportunity for PCGS members to buy the second edition of the book California Pioneer Fractional Gold by Walter Breen and Ronald J. Gillio for only $150 (versus $250) while supplies last, please visit www.kagins.com.
