Hi
All,
I
hope all is well. I feel a need to stress the fact we are in a very
healthy coin market. I've had several calls in the last week along from new
customers who wanted to buy but the coins they inquired about were either
just sold before they called or just put on hold by another dealer. Please
bear in mind that the inventory you see listed on my website is also offered
to several other dealers who are actively selling from the same inventory
you are seeing first! Your competition is other dealers ! Hence the
following disclosure which I suppose at least for now will be on every
newsletter while this bull wakes up and starts doing what bulls usually do.
This week we're picking gold coins from America's wild wild west. Consider
for a moment how these gold coins were transported after being struck. On
stagecoaches and guarded at time by government troops who had to fight off
robbers, hostile Indians and others who wanted that gold! The first listing
went on a ship, the SS Central America ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Central_America )
that sank!
PLEASE
CALL OR EMAIL TO HOLD ANY COIN ON THIS LIST OR ON THE WEBSITE WHILE YOU
CONDUCT YOUR RESEARCH. THIS IS A VERY ACTIVE MARKET, AND THE INVENTORY YOU
SEE IS THE SAME INVENTORY THAT IS ALSO OFFERED TO OTHER DEALERS WHO ACTIVELY
SELL TO THEIR CUSTOMERS COINS ON OUR LIST AND MORE THAN ONCE IN JUST THE
PAST WEEK A CLIENT HAS REQUESTED INFORMATION ON A COIN OR SENT AN EMAIL TO
PURCHASE ONLY TO BE TOLD " SORRY BUT THAT ONE WAS JUST SPOKEN FOR". PLEASE
REQUEST A HOLD WHILE CONSIDERING WHICH DOES NOT OBLIGATE YOU TO ANYTHING BUT
WILL GIVE YOU THE NEEDED TIME FOR RESEARCH ETC.
This
weeks special picks begin with a very special and scarce half eagle of
1857-S from the SS Central America 2 that does not display the usual tell
tale signs of salt water issues but instead is beautiful and even semi
prooflike. An amazing discovery. Next up is an uber rare pre-Civil War
1860-S half eagle in high grade very choice about uncirculated ( within
months shots would ring out at Fort Sumpter signaling the beginning of
America's War Between the States) followed by yet another rare but gem
quality half eagle of 1880-S in MS-65, to an 1893-CC Eagle in select
uncirculated condition with beautiful color and quite rare, a very choice
uncirculated double eagle of 1873 Closed 3 $20 PCGS MS62, an uncirculated
1874-CC double eagle , an intense 1894-S double eagle graded MS-64+ by pcgs
and sporting a cac sticker all leading to the grand finale represented by a
nearly unique R-8 1870 $10 Eagle pattern in aluminum and in gem
condition.
