1879 $4 Coiled Hair, Judd-1638, Pollock-1838, R.6. PR67 Cameo NGC. The Morgan Design. Reeded Edge. One of the very finest known of this ever popular and elusive issue. The surfaces are very bright and reflective in the fields, while the devices are thick with frost. For the collector, the quality of the coin is always a paramount issue, and this particular specimen is simply stunning for the quality and for the excellent contrast. Examination with a 10X loupe finds little evidence of handling, and anything noted is extremely faint. There is a very thin broken scratch hidden in Liberty's hair behind her temple which runs horizontal to the right and ends above Liberty's ear. Another extremely faint line extends down the back of Liberty's head right of her ear and can only be seen at certain angles and with a strong loupe and light. The fields and balance of the obverse are essentially the quality as the day they were coined. We note a minute planchet flake in the field between the serif of the G and Liberty's mouth, and a very short lint mark in the field between her bun and the A close to the rim. Morgan might have hand cut the letters of LIBERTY in the crown, as they are awkward in appearance and we suspect no die punches would be available that would both decrease in size in a uniform fashion as well as shrink toward the right side on each letter, fitting the angular shape of Liberty's crown. This particular coin shows this feature clearly as the coin has a sharp strike and none of the striation lines seen on the other specimen in this sale from this same die pairing. Numerous minor repunchings are seen on the obverse inscription, notably the central serif of the 3, the first S, the serif of both 7s, the A and stars eleven and twelve. The reverse shows the post of the D well above the final placement, and this repunched feature is present on all Stellas, as they were struck with the same reverse die. One very short lint mark is found on the reverse, which hangs down from the O in GLO

1907 $20 High Relief, Wire Rim MS69 PCGS. Frank A. Leach was superintendent of the U.S. Mint in San Francisco from 1897 to 1907. He assumed the title of mint director in Washington in 1907 after the resignation of George E. Roberts from the post, and moved there in time to assume his new duties by Oct. 1, 1907. As the following excerpt shows, Leach was a crucial figure in the production of the Saint-Gaudens coinage. Leach wrote his memoirs titled Recollections of a Newspaper Man--A Record of Life and Events in California, published in 1917 by Samuel Levinson of San Francisco. Bowers and Merena Galleries republished a portion of that work in 1987 as Recollections of a Mint Director. Some excerpts from that text follow, dealing with the circumstances surrounding production of the High Relief issues:

"Another very important matter was in hand in the bureau when I arrived at Washington, which was soon to cause me some anxiety, and that was the perfection of President Roosevelt's scheme for new designs for all the gold coins of our country. There were a number prominent people in the East, especially in New York and Boston, who some time before began an agitation for an improvement in appearance of all our coinage. The President quickly became the leading spirit of the movement. The prevalent idea in this undertaking was that the design and execution of our coinage were inferior and inartistic when compared with those of ancient Greece; and as the coins used by a nation are one of the most enduring records of the art and mechanical skill of its age, our government should make an issue of coinage that would leave to future generations and ages something that would more truthfully and correctly reflect the artistic taste and mechanical ability of our day than the coinage then in use, unchanged for so many years."

Leach then makes a surprising comment concerning what he considers to be the derivative nature of the Saint-Gaudens coinage--at least in thei (PCGS# 9135)

1792 H10C Half Disme, Judd-7, Pollock-7, R.4, MS63 NGC. In July of 1792 high-ranking members of the United States government began to leave Philadelphia and its stifling summer heat. On July 11, President George Washington left the temporary capital at Philadelphia and began the journey to Mount Vernon, his estate on the Potomac River. Two days later, Thomas Jefferson left Philadelphia for Monticello. During that spring the two men were instrumental in the production of the first documented coins of the United States Mint: Washington as depositor of the metal, and Jefferson through his post as Secretary of State, the department that was eventually charged with Mint oversight. The day before the president's departure Jefferson noted in his personal memoranda book that he delivered "75D" to the Mint to be coined. Two days later, in the notation directly preceding his own departure for Virginia, Jefferson took delivery of "1,500 half dismes of the new coinage." Perhaps the small bag of coins was presented to the president on October 1, 1792 when Jefferson stopped at Mount Vernon on his return trip to Philadelphia.

The Washington pedigree of these small coins has been the subject of a significant amount of numismatic debate, much of it of the "George Washington slept here" variety. In a 2004 article in the American Journal of Numismatics authors Joel J. Orosz and Carl R. Herkowitz established a chronological framework for this issue. Most importantly, they confirm the main points of the 1844-dated John McAllister memoranda on the subject, the source of the Washington pedigree.

On April 5, 1844 John McAllister--prominent Philadelphia businessman, numismatist and antiquarian--strode past the visitor logbook at the United States Mint in Philadelphia. He was accompanied by Adam Eckfeldt, and neither signed the book. Eckfeldt had first been hired as a Mint employee in 1792 and retired as its Chief Coiner in 1839. Five years after his retirement Eckfeldt still came to w (PCGS# 11020)

1796 $2 1/2 No Stars MS63 NGC. Breen-1, Breen-6113, Bass-3002, BD-2, High R.4. Among the early quarter eagles produced from 1796 to 1834 are several important type coins, including two distinct single-year designs and several important subtypes of these basic designs. There is little doubt that the 1796 No Stars quarter eagle and the 1808 Capped Bust quarter eagle are two of the most important type coins in the entire panorama of American numismatics.

After the Mint Act of April 2, 1792, was passed by Congress, steps were taken to proceed with a physical Mint facility in Philadelphia, then the nation's capital. The cornerstone for the new building, the first official government structure in the United States, was placed on July 31, 1792, and construction continued until early 1793. It was March 1 of that year that the first coins were produced within the physical Mint building, those coins being the 1793 Chain cents, specifically the famous "Chain Ameri" pieces.

Although the capability to produce silver and gold coinage existed at that same time, there was a delay in production of the precious metals. The original 1792 coinage Act specified that the Mint treasurer, assayer, and chief coiner shall each post a bond in the amount of $10,000 to ensure their proper handling of gold and silver deposits. While this doesn't seem to be a large amount today, it was substantial for the time. The annual salary for the assayer and chief coiner in 1795 was $1,200, thus the required bond was more than eight years' salary. Congressional approval was then required to lower the necessary bond to $5,000, a more reasonable requirement. Once these bonds were posted, silver dollars were coined in 1794, and gold coins beginning in 1795.

The first quarter eagles were struck on September 21, 1796, with a delivery of just 66 pieces. It is believed that all of these pieces were the extremely rare variety now known as BD-1 (BD for Bass-Dannreuther), that a further delivery of 897 pieces date (PCGS# 7645)

1879 $4 Coiled Hair, Judd-1638, Pollock-1838, PR63 NGC. R.6. The Morgan design. Reeded Edge. This particular specimen shows horizontal striations on the obverse through Liberty's hair and we also note that the reverse die is slightly rotated counter clockwise by about 15 degrees. The surfaces show minor hairlines in the fields. Identifiable by a curly lintmark just behind Liberty's head at the base of her braid which is in the shape of a 6 with a long tail below the loop. There is also a very short lintmark which connects the 1 in the date to the truncation above and to the right of that digit. A very rare and important coin for the specialist. NGC has graded three coins this high with an additional five pieces seen in finer grades.

Reflective, prooflike bright greenish yellow gold surfaces with cameo contrast. A few minor hairlines and other minute blemishes are noted. On the reverse we note a small pit in the planchet close to the dentils and right of the final A of AMERICA, in addition to this there are three short lint marks surrounding that same letter. Supposedly just 10 examples were minted, although a few more were likely struck given the numbers recorded in the population data. It has not been determined who designed the common reverse die for all four-dollar gold coins. Obverse: large date logotype that appears to be the same as on the Flowing Hair Stellas. Reverse die: D in UNITED is widely doubled, the original placement above final position and most prominent on the post of that letter.

The coiled hair design was created by George T. Morgan and employed a bust of Liberty with her hair tied up in braid around her head with a small crown inscribed LIBERTY. The obverse inscription matched the Flowing Hair design and stands for 6 grams of gold, .3 silver and .7 copper, which was the metric alloy. It is believed that most of these were struck using the standard mint 90 percent gold and 10 percent copper. This particular coin is believed to have appeared in se (PCGS# 8058)
