March 5th, 2025 - I LEFT MY HEART IN SAN FRANCISCO
Hi All,
I hope all is well. Well maybe somebody left their heart in San Francisco but what's under the spotlight this week are coins that have been minted in San Francisco. Not just "S" mints either. Please take a look and fine some very scarce and some very rare gold coins from the wild west which it certainly was when some of these coins were minted. Many of the coins minted in San Fran in the early years made there way around the the west by stagecoach and were exposed to all the travails along the way including but not limited to robbers with guns, Indians with guns and bows and arrows and all the harshness of the times. Well, some of the coins made it thru and somebody from the very beginning maybe looked at one of these double eagles or other gold coins and decided to keep it. Not just keep it but save it for the future. Because of those folks we have these coins laid out in front of us today!
Here's a few of beauties minted in San Francisco, ranging from scarce to extremely rare:
Also one exceptional and incredibly rare $10 Eagle struck in aluminum that is not from San Francisco.
Please don't hesitate to contact me to discuss these as well as any other coins you are considering whether you are buying-selling - or consigning to auction. Let me help!
