PCGS# 9034 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ PCGS 117, NGC 105, CAC 14. First we think that there is some duplication in the PCGS and NGC figures, hoping for higher grades. Only three coins have graded finer, 2 in 65+ and a monster 67. There have been three PCGS MS65s with CAC approval that have sold in auction, the most recent one in September 2017 for $9,000; there hadn’t been one prior since 2011. The last non-CAC 65 sold for $7,800. This is a coin worthy of inclusion of an important collection of double eagles.

Much scarcer than the 1904, and selling for nearly zero premium over that, this 1900 double eagle would make a nice addition to PCGS 5406, NGC 6776, CAC 460. Here is a great example of how any holding of U.S. gold coins. strong the CAC premium is. The most recent PCGS/CAC MS65 sold in February 2019 for $3,960; prior to that, one sold in our June PCGS# 9037 | ESTIMATE: $1,700+ 2018 Premier Session for $4,180.

LOT 453 $20 1907 HIGH RELIEF, WIRE RIM. PCGS MS64 CAC This coin gives the term “Wire Rim” a totally new meaning! The upper left obverse has an especially high wire, that is about 1mm above the edge from 9:00 to 11:00. Very rare with a high fin like this, as over the years it would have either been dinged up badly, or worse, filed down. This fin has clearly saved this nearly GEM caliber coin from any serious contact on the obverse. The devices are exceptionally crisp, fully rendered by a dramatically exacting strike (actually several strikes, as it took about four blows from the dies to bring up the high relief details). The luster is wonderfully complete with a great satin texture and very pleasing, original orange-rose gold patina. The initial look is that of a higher grade, but we do note a tiny mark on the high wire fin at 10:00 and a couple of other microscopic ticks. The visual allure is truly seductive, and this is an inspired example of this most beautiful U.S. type coin! PCGS 1066, NGC 362, CAC 151. The most recent PCGS MS64 to sell in auction realized $31,200 in February 2019; prior to that, a PCGS MS64 CAC sold for $28,000 in a September 2018 online only auction. The current Collectors Universe value is $28,500 and keep in mind that a PCGS MS65 CAC will cost $50,000 or more! This is a perfect coin for a well chosen gold type set or a great coin to start off a set of $20 Saints. This is a grand opportunity for any collector that should not be taken for granted. PCGS# 9135 | ESTIMATE: $26,000+ 250

LOT 454 $20 1907 HIGH RELIEF, FLAT RIM PCGS MS66 A SUPERB, truly beautiful High Relief. Gorgeous, medium honey gold surfaces display a very seductive mint bloom. Under close inspection, only the most minute marks are detected, but you do need a powerful loupe to find them, thus they don’t detract from the overall appeal of this splendid GEM. While intended for circulation, a large number of these were saved for their unique high relief quality, and there is a large cluster of examples certified as MS62 to MS64. Scarce in GEM, and RARE in such lofty grades of MS66 or finer. This beautifully designed coin is arguably the most artistic and beautiful to ever appear on a coin struck for general circulation. The story of the High Relief begins in 1905 when President Roosevelt lamented the drab designs on circulating coins. After viewing the high relief on ancient Greek coins and observing the beautiful designs, he contacted his friend, world renowned sculptor Augustus St. Gaudens to redesign all the coins, from the cent to the double eagle. After about 24 experimental strikings of the Ultra High Relief, which proved unruly to strike in mass quantities, the reliefs were lowered, and the High Relief as we know it today was struck to the tune of 11,250 pieces, divided between the flat rim and wire rim variants. Augustus St. Gaudens died of stomach cancer before he was able to see any example struck in its intended metal. PCGS 54, NGC 59. The most recent example to sell in auction was in our May 2018 Regency Auction for $61,688, and prior to that, one sold for $66,000 in February 2018. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $70,000, and keep in mind that only 13 coins are graded finer with the most recent MS67 selling for $228,000. What a fabulous coin to start your collection of Saints, or just a really sexy coin to add to your “box of 20.” PCGS# 9136 | ESTIMATE: $57,500+ 251

LOT 455 $20 1907 NO MOTTO. PCGS MS64+ CAC This is an impeccable MS64+, bordering on MS65 quality, and we have seen MS65s that don’t have the great eye appeal of this near-GEM. Wonderful original orange-gold surfaces are satiny smooth have a bold, frosty lustrous glow throughout. A few insignificant ticks are noted but do not detract. PCGS 5473, NGC 2203, CAC 287. There are 247 graded by PCGS in MS64+ and we suspect there is a lot of duplication trying for an MS65. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $2,650 and this near-GEM is a delight for the gold bug. Good luck! PCGS# 9141 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ LOT 456 $20 1909-D PCGS MS64 CAC FROM THE PROSPECT COLLECTION A very low mintage issue, with 52,000 originally struck, the 09-D is the lowest mintage Denver mint for the entire series. Most Mint State examples known come from overseas bank sources such as Switzerland, France, and El Salvador. Very scarce in Mint State grades, most grade MS64 and lower. In MS65 this coin is VERY RARE. This high-end near-GEM is well struck, offering a satiny golden luster that has bold frost in the fields. Pleasing honey/wheat gold coloration with lighter yellow-gold accents seen in areas. The surfaces are very clean for the assigned grade, free of any contact anywhere and they are also totally unmolested from conservation or other problems. This near-GEM is very high-end and has a great visual appeal for the grade! PCGS 168, NGC 74, CAC 13. This coin was last sold in March 2013 (hard to believe that is 6 years ago already!) for $11,457. The average APR for a PCGS/CAC coin is over $12,000, well above the current PCGS value of $8,000. Keep in mind that any PCGS MS65 (NONE ARE CAC approved) will cost $25,000+, so this is a great opportunity for the CAC-dedicated collector to add an example of this date without having to spend $70,000-$80,000 for a MS66! We should see very active bidding on this impressive and important Saint Gaudens date. PCGS# 9152 | ESTIMATE: $11,000+ 252

Listed in the PCGS price guide at $3,600 but since less than 7% of MS64 graded coins have been PCGS 4163, NGC 3940, CAC 238. Clearly worthy of a strong CAC approved, there is a large premium for CAC coins; the last bid, the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $1,925. auction record for a PCGS/CAC coin was $4,819 in our September There used to be a better premium for these “better than generic” 2018 Regency Auction and the one before that brought $5,287 in more common double eagles. What a great addition to any gold March 2017. The present coin is certainly worthy of a serious bid - holding. If you study the prices of the more common date Saints keep in mind a CAC approved MS65 is worth $20,000+! you can build a decent partial set at a very low premium right now. That would be a fun side project for any gold bug. PCGS#9157 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+ PCGS# 9158 | ESTIMATE: $1,500+ 253

LOT 461 $20 1911-D PCGS MS66+ CAC A very high-end quality, essentially SUPERB GEM 11-D $20. Prohibitively rare any finer than the currently offered 66+ grade, this coin represents an excellent value for any serious double eagle collector. Brilliant swirling satin mint bloom graces both sides of this impressive gem. Rich golden color takes on an awesome two tone look. Clean, matte-like textured surfaces show nothing but the most insignificant microscopic tick or two. The devices are fully detailed from an exacting strike. PCGS 646, NGC 574, CAC 109. PCGS has graded 34 in MS66+ and just 11 coins graded finer. The most recent example to sell in auction realized $9,000 in the 2019 FUN auction (the one in our Regency Auction 30 was a repunched mintmark variety that realized $25,850). Another sold in the 2018 ANA auction for $14,400. The current PCGS value is $9,000. PCGS# 9158 | ESTIMATE: $9,000+ LOT 462 $20 1914-D PCGS MS64 CAC Brilliant mint luster swirls around both sides on this 14-D $20 amplifying the rich, orange-gold coloration.

The most recent PCGS/CAC coin to sell in auction realized $1,650 in our March 2018 Premier Session. . While the CU value is $1,650, CAC approved examples do command a strong premium. A lower mintage date, but thanks to European holdings, the 14-D is widely available, but is very hard to find in CAC quality. PCGS# 9165 | ESTIMATE: $1,500+ LOT 463 $20 1915 PCGS MS64+ CAC This is a lower mintage Saint, with only 152,000 struck, the 1915 is a conditionally RARE issue in GEM grades. The presently offered coin is very close to the GEM category. Frosty satin mint luster displays only a few traces of contact that account for the assigned grade. The surfaces show a lovely, totally original olive accented tone over the rich golden hues. PCGS 359, NGC 332, CAC 42. PCGS has graded 18 in MS64+. We think that there is duplication in the Population Reports of the same coin being submitted multiple times in hopes of getting a 65 grade. The last PCGS MS64+ CAC coins sold in the recent FUN auction, realizing $9,000 and $5,520, and the current Collectors Universe value is listed at $7,500. A PCGS/CAC MS65 is a $30,000+ coin so a 64+ with great eye appeal presents a great value for the collector. Good luck! PCGS# 9167 | ESTIMATE: $7,500+ 254

LOT 464 $20 1915 PCGS MS65 We have handled some of the best $20 Saints out there, and the 1915 is a very difficult date to find in GEM Mint State. Looking at our auction records, we have handled just four others previously that have made the cut. The present GEM is a real beauty. Brilliant golden luster rolls forcefully on both sides with a strong cartwheel effect. The surfaces have a thick, rich,satin finish that is enhanced by a glowing orange-gold tone. The surfaces have a delicate “pebbled” look to them, typical of what we have seen on others on the obverse. There are a few very trivial micro-spots on the obverse hidden in the details. Regardless, the eye appeal is amazing and this date is VERY RARE any finer. PCGS 51, NGC 38. The two most recent examples to sell were CAC-approved, one, a PCGS coin sold for $33,600 in April 2018 and a month later an NGC-graded coin sold for $35,000. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $19,000 and this one should hammer close to that amount. Only four are graded finer, and we sold a 65+ for $55,813 in September 2018. PCGS# 9167 | ESTIMATE: $17,000+ LOT 465 LOT 466 $20 1915-S PCGS MS64 CAC $20 1915-S PCGS MS65+ CAC This is another “better than generic” date in a lovely and totally While in today’s market, the 15-S is considered a “generic” date, it original MS64 holder.

The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $3,300. Keep in mind a PCGS/CAC MS66 last sold for $9,900. This represents a great coin for the collector, worthy of a strong bid. PCGS# 009168 | ESTIMATE: $3,000+ 255

LOT 467 $20 1920 PCGS MS64 CAC The 1920 double eagle is a MAJOR condition rarity in the series. While somewhat scarce in MS64, there are just two in MS65 at PCGS, so we suspect that there must be a lot of resubmissions in the MS64 and MS64+ grades. This is not your typical lifeless, dull MS64! This is a really choice and original example with great orange-gold patina over highly lustrous surfaces. Well struck and very clean. The eye appeal is amazing for one of these! PCGS 1040, NGC 411, CAC 87. The most recent PCGS/CAC coin to sell realized $4,290 in our March 2018 Premier Session sale and we sold one in our February 2018 Premier Session for $4,620. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $5,250 and keep in mind that anything finer will be significantly more expensive; PCGS/ CAC MS64+s selling in the $8,700 to $10,800 range and remember that the last MS65 sold in our Regency Auction 25 (January 2018) for $188,000!

PCGS# 9173 | ESTIMATE: $9,000+ LOT 469 $20 1922-S PCGS MS64+ CAC Nearly full GEM MS65 quality. Prices would be sky high if all 22-S $20’s in MS64 could look this awesome. Both sides have marvelous surfaces that offer an ultra thick, frosty, satin luster. The surfaces appear clean-although if you use a strong glass you will find some pinpoint ticks scattered around. The surfaces have stunning original yellow gold color. There are NO discolorations or spots. Miss Liberty and the details are nicely struck with full definition. The eye appeal is fantastic! PCGS 437, NGC 35, CAC 42. PCGS has graded 54 in MS64+. The last PCGS/CAC example to sell in auction realized $8,813 in the 2017 ANA auction; prior to that we sold one in our September 2016 Regency Auction for $12,338.

LOT 470 $20 1924 PCGS MS65+ CAC What a HIGH END example, we have seen coins graded MS66 that do not look this nice! A strong luster and bold two tone gold look stands out with a vibrant mint brilliance. Sharply struck devices and smooth, defect free fields are very attractive. The last PCGS/CAC example realized $1,870 in our December 2018 Premier Session auction, and clearly this coin is deserving of a premium bid! Prior to that, recent examples have sold for as much as $2,400. A delight for any gold bug! PCGS# 9177 | ESTIMATE: $1,800+ LOT 471 $20 1924-S PCGS MS64 CAC FROM THE PROSPECT COLLECTION Legend Rare Coin Auctions is proud to offer this KEY DATE Saint. Prior to the 1950s when a small grouping was found in Europe, the 1924-S was considered one of the RAREST dates in the series with about a half dozen thought to exist, despite a mintage of over 2.9 million. If you look at the famed collections of the 1940s like Dunham, Bell, Flanagan, Atwater, and World’s Greatest Collections, all were missing a 24-S. By the mid-1960s, a hundred or so examples came out of European holdings. Today, the date is still a KEY issue; PCGS CoinFacts estimates 700 Mint State coins survive in all grades, mostly MS60-MS63. It is indeed quite RARE in MS64 and excessively so in GEM grades. The vast majority were stored in Treasury vaults and melted in the late 1930s under FDR’s gold recall order. The presently offered coin is a real prize and truly of high-end quality for the grade! Indeed, the initial eye appeal is that of a GEM. It is beautifully lustrous with boldly rolling cartwheels that enliven the two-tone golden coloration on both sides. The surfaces have rich orange-gold that blends to yellow-gold and hints of rose-gold. Typical for the date, there is some weakness in strike, most notably on the Capitol Dome, the torch, and Liberty’s wind-blown tresses. You can look for hours at this impressive near-GEM with a powerful glass, and see nothing but the tiniest trace amount of minor contact. The eye appeal is truly spectacular for the grade, and this coin is wonderfully original and ultra-high end for the grade; certainly one of the nicest examples this cataloger has seen in a very long time! PCGS 116, NGC 117, CAC 23. With just 20 coins graded finer at PCGS, we are certain that the MS64 population includes at least some duplication. We cannot trace this particular coin to any auction, but the most recent PCGS/CAC coin sold in auction for $25,850 in October 2016. Prior to that, these were generally selling in the $16,500-$21,000 range. We sold two different MS64+ PCGS/CAC and a non-CAC example in the last four years, all realizing between $37,000 and $45,000; the presently offered coin has a truly spectacular look that we would rank close to those. A PCGS/CAC MS65 is a $150,000+ rarity, so this is one of the best coins you will see. If you are working on a set of Saints, you need to bid on this beauty! PCGS# 9179 | ESTIMATE: $20,000+ 257

LOT 472 $20 1926 PCGS MS64 CAC Vibrant and satiny luster blooms all over with radiating cartwheels. Sharply struck and delightful, high-end surface quality. PCGS 8293, NGC 9220, CAC 409.

Roger Burdette estimates that about 10% of all 1926 $20s are of the tripled die obverse variety. The tripling is most evident around the date and the ASG monogram. Extremely lustrous possessing a blazing golden glow with a bold vibrance throughout. In addition, there are brilliant, swirling cartwheels that smoothly roll over the extremely clean surfaces. The devices are sharply struck with full definition throughout. The eye appeal is gorgeous! For the variety: PCGS 17, NGC 5. There are only 2 in 66+ with NONE FINER. For the date: PCGS 910, NGC 439, CAC 70. There are 27 in MS66+ for the date, with only five in MS67 finer. The last MS66+ CAC to sell in auction realized $7,931 back in February 2014. No MS66+ TDO has ever sold in auction. This SUPERB GEM is worthy of an advanced collection of double eagles and should see very active bidding for sure! PCGS# 145744 | ESTIMATE: $5,500+ LOT 474 $20 1927 PCGS MS65+ CAC Pleasing quality. Save for a few ticks, overall, this is a pretty clean and smooth coin. A full booming luster illuminates the rich and totally original orange gold colors. There is a touch of toning on some of the high points. Miss Liberty and the details are very well struck.

This is a great coin for any set of Saints or for the holdings of a serious gold bug. PCGS# 9186 | ESTIMATE: $4,500+ LOT 476 25C 1893 ISABELLA. PCGS MS67+ CAC Without any hesitation, we label this remarkable piece a full blown MONSTER! It really does border on full MS68 quality. The surfaces are pristine-even when using a strong glass. Typically, these do come hacked up and really drab. A strong luster glows from all over. Mother Nature summoned all her helpers and created one MONSTER TONED color scheme here. We consider the colors to be a 10 of Northern Lights quality (the wild dollars we sold two years ago). Both sides are deep but electric blue/green/deep violet/tangerine that open into smaller soft white centers. Every single detail is so stuck up and stands out so bold you do not need a glass to see any of the details. The eye appeal is just jaw dropping crazy! PCGS 49, NGC 53, CAC 33. PCGS has graded only 7 in MS67+. We feel there are few other MS67+ that can compare. With that in mind and knowing the last MS68 sold for $47,000 in 2014, we KNOW this piece will bring really strong money-maybe even a record price! Be prepared! Using this piece to start a full Commem or Type set will only add value as every time you see it, you will say WOW! PCGS# 9220 | ESTIMATE: $12,500+ LOT 477 50C 1937-D ARKANSAS.

The current Collector’s Universe value is listed at $4,500 and the only PCGS/CAC example sold in the 2014 FUN sale for $4,113. Keep in mind that the last MS68 sold for nearly $26,000 in February 2016.

Sharply struck up on both sides, this GEM is dusted with beautiful iridescent blue, peach-gold over watery mirrored fields. PCGS 1, NGC 5. Prior to this GEM selling in our August 2018 Premier Session for $2,145, the most recent NGC coin to sell was back in April 2010 - that is over eight years ago! That coin brought $2,300. A Standard Silver pattern like this is a great “entry” level pattern for someone to embark on this wonderful specialty. PCGS# 60948 | ESTIMATE: $1,800+ LOT 495 $1 1869 J-764. PCGS PR65 CAM This very RARE R-7- (7-12 minted) Seated Liberty “die trial” ranks among the very FINEST known. Struck from the regular issue proof dies in aluminum with a reeded edge. Presumably this coin was once part of a complete Proof Set in aluminum, and perhaps 7-12 exist in all grades, (combined, PCGS and NGC have graded 6 in all grades). A wealth of CAMEO contrast is created by the deep, bold mirrors that beam from all over. The devices are fully frosted, contrasting beautifully with the mirrors. Untoned and vibrant with strong mirrors on both sides, contrasting wonderfully against the frosted devices. There is some softness to the strike in the centers, typical of the type. PCGS 3, NGC 0. The only one to ever sell in auction was in Stack’s November 2009 Anniversary Sale, lot 1737 for $14,950 (this is NOT that coin). None have been graded finer at PCGS in any designation, making this among the best of the type. Here is an example of how cheap these are: in PR65 CAM a regular 1869 dollar (mintage 600) is worth about the same as this ultra rare pattern. Perhaps this will inspire a look at the value of patterns! PCGS# 411246 | ESTIMATE: $10,000+ LOT 496 25C 1870 J-916. PCGS PR67 CAM CAC Ex Simpson Collection. This is an extremely RARE Standard Silver pattern quarter, rated R-7+ (4-6 minted). Barber’s portrait of Liberty wears a tiara with no stars. Struck in aluminum with a reeded edge. What an amazing SUPERB GEM! Clearly the FINEST extant example of this VERY RARE Judd number! The mirrors are deep and watery and beam from all over. The surfaces, save for a small area of roughness in the planchet in the obverse right field (mint made), are FLAWLESS! Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and have a thick frosty texture. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. This is the FINEST J-916 known. In fact, overall in ANY Aluminum Pattern design there are very few PR67’s.

LOT 497 $1 1870 J-1017. PCGS PR63 BN This is a totally FRESH example of this ultra popular Pattern dollar type. Longacre’s famed Seated Indian Princess design adorns the obverse and is paired with the regular Proof die of 1870. Considered to be R-7-, with about a dozen known, struck in copper with a plain edge. The mirrored copper surfaces have a bold, hard, flashy finish. They offer a wonderful mixture of iridescent overtones that range from the fiercely vibrant to more muted and subdued, consisting of olive, rose, lilac, magenta, teal, sky-blue, tan, and gold shades. Indeed, we really don’t see any “brown.” The mirrors, especially on the reverse, are flashy and bring out the amazing colors and sharpness of the strike. This CHOICE example is totally original and fresh to the market, consigned to us raw from an old collection; it is highly unlikely that anyone has seen this coin in at least 40 years! PCGS 2, NGC 0. The most recent example to sell realized $8,813 in the 2015 ANA Auction and was the first time that coin had sold since 1995! There has not been a PCGS PR64 BN sold in auction since 1992! Clearly, this RARE Judd number does not come up for sale very often! Take advantage of the opportunity this presents for you!
