20 TH CENTURY COINS
1907 The Death of Saint-Gaudens
2010 SOLD 360 K$ including premium
PRE SALE DISCUSSION
Famous U.S. sculptor, Augustus Saint-Gaudens also liked creating medallions. Although he was already in his terminal cancer, it is to him that President Theodore Roosevelt ordered the redesign of gold coins, the $ 10 eagle and the $ 20 double-eagle.
Saint-Gaudens completed this work just in time. The mint sent him one of the two proof coins of the eagle, which he received just before his death happening on August 3, 1907. He never saw his double-eagle. The other copy was sent to the President.
These first two copies of the eagle have a specific feature: the edge of the coin is plain. One of them suddenly appeared in a sale organized by Heritage Auction Galleries in 2003. After a second round on the market when it was sold by Stack's $ 322 K in 2008, it is coming to Boston at Heritage on August 11.
This coin is illustrated on the press release shared by the auction house. The sales history is discussed in the catalog.The other specimen has never been located.
The currency of Saint-Gaudens had a remarkable longevity, which was interrupted only by the removal of both the eagle and double eagle in 1933 when the second Roosevelt ended the gold coinage.
POST SALE COMMENT
Sold 360 K $ including premium, this eagle has barely exceeded its 2008 price. The media effort had yet been important, but the doubt remaining about its origin has certainly played against it. Unless the other copy appears suddenly, we'll never know if it was the specimen sent to the artist or the one sent to the president.

1910 Satin or Matte
2020 unsold
In 1905 President Roosevelt had the good idea to entrust the redesign of the gold coins to a sculptor, Augustus Saint-Gaudens. The artist prepared the double eagle and the eagle in 1907 but died during the summer. The work was completed for the half eagle and quarter eagle in 1908 by another sculptor, Bela Pratt.
This initiative generated some development difficulties. The first prototypes of the double eagle, designated as Ultra High Relief, were conceived like medals and could not be used for mass production.
After this spectacular error, the relief is flattened but not enough to use the traditional finishing techniques. Many tests are carried out in Philadelphia. Pattern coins that did not precede a production release have generally been melted. A 1907 satin finish eagle graded PR67 by NGC, which had belonged to the Mint director, was sold for $ 2.2M including premium by Heritage in January 2011.
Collectors expect a brilliant surface in their proof coins. The Mint takes the opposite option of sandblasting the pieces to obtain a matte surface. After the decline in sales of the 1908 proof coins, the factory returned in 1909 and 1910 to a satin finish which aroused in its turn the disapproval of the very influential collector William Woodin.
Tests continue, often without being documented, to try to reconcile technical constraints and customer satisfaction. A 1910 double eagle of a previously unknown finish has just been discovered. It has been graded SP66+ by PCGS and will be sold by Heritage in Dallas on August 4, lot 4113.
The surfaces of that specimen have a better reflection than the satin finish, certainly due to a careful polishing of the dies. The color is bright, between gold and orange, and the strike is razor sharp.
This experiment was not followed. After a debate at the 1910 ANA Convention, the proof coins were sandblasted again in 1911.

1921 All the Saints (Gaudens) of Dr Duckor
2012 SOLD 750 K$ including premium
The list of US coins of the twentieth century is well established, and leaves no place for surprise. However, collectors know that some pieces are unique: their passion is to find the finest possible example of each model.
A perfect piece has never been handled. Under these conditions of maintained cleanliness, color may vary due to the presence of a small amount of copper forming alloy with the bulk gold.
The $ 20 double eagle of Saint-Gaudens type is the most prestigious of American gold coins. Regular production was carried out from 1907 to 1932, but the number of variants exceeds the number of years because it also includes the identification of the mint. D stands for Denver, S for San Francisco, and no letter code means Philadelphia.
From one year to another, the produced quantity could vary considerably, depending on available reserves. The highest rarities are 1927-D and 1921.
The collection of Dr. Duckor, although not unique, is exceptional because the collector was only interested in mint state (MS) coins graded 65 or higher by PGCS. It includes only production coins (business strikes), and no test piece (proofs). He sells it on January 5 at Heritage in Orlando. Each coin will be sold separately.
The article remarkably documented by CoinWeek is illustrated by several lots of this sale.
Graded MS66, his 1921 double eagle is one of the two best examples recorded. The other one of same grade fetched $ 1.1 million including premium at Heritage in November 2005 in the sale of the Morse collection.
Dr. Duckor had owned a MS66 1927-D in an earlier phase of his collection. This variant is so rare that he had given up on finding a similar specimen. The only 1927-D at MS67 grade was sold $ 1.9 million including premium by Heritage in the sale of the Morse collection already mentioned above.

1933 Gold Eagle
2011 SOLD 360 K$ including premium
PRE SALE DISCUSSION
In March 1933, President Roosevelt gave the order to stop the release of all gold coins belonging to the Federal Reserve. The government had much in stock, and some years that had not yet been made available have become extremely rare.
So I have already discussed a double eagle ($ 20) made in Denver in 1927 (1927-D, Saint-Gaudens type) sold $ 1.5million including premium by Heritage on January 7, 2010.
I then reminded the hammer price of $ 6.6 million recorded in 2002 by Sotheby's on the only double eagle of 1933 that has been legalized by the US government. With charges, the buyer had paid $ 7,590,020, including $ 20 for the monetization of his coin.
The eagle ($ 10, St. Gaudens type) is less prestigious, but the number of units made in 1933 that escaped destruction is also very limited. They come from regular production in Philadelphia mint in the weeks preceding thePresidential order.
One specimen is for sale on January 6 at Tampa by Heritage Auction Galleries. Its condition is graded MS65. Only one other example is identified with a more perfect condition than this one..

1937 A Dot for the Late King
2010 SOLD 400 K$ including premium
2019 SOLD for $ 310K including premium
PRE 2019 SALE DISCUSSION
The abdication of Edward VIII on December 11, 1936 comes at the worst time for the monetary calendar : the British Royal Mint had already begun preparing the 1937 dies with his effigy.
At that time a shortage happens on three Canadian coins. For these 1 cent, 10 cents and 25 cents, it is indeed impossible to display the name and portrait of the resigning king, and the availability of dies identifying his successor is not yet scheduled.
For these three denominations, the Royal Canadian Mint prepares the first dies for the 1937 production by reusing the 1936 design with the name and effigy of the late King George V. The date of 1936 is also reused : the mark of 1937 cannot be suitable for this king who died in January 1936. The new coin is only differentiated from the real 1936 coin by a tiny dot below the date.
The Canadian plant produces a very small number of specimens of the three dotted coins and of the three unmodified denominations, 5 cents, 50 cents and 1 dollar. A small production for urgent circulation is released for the dot 25. The dot cent and the dot 10 will not be issued.
An employee of the Royal Canadian Mint had kept a complete set of the six specimens. Acquired together in 1954 by a collector, they were sold separately by Heritage in January 2003.
This group included the best of the three known George V dot cent 1936 coins. Certified Specimen 66 Red by PCGS, it was sold for $ 400K including premium by Heritage on January 3, 2010. I discussed it in this column before that sale. Please watch the video shared by the auction house.
This specimen still had a layer of protective lacquer put by the factory to improve its short term preservation. Slight discolorations were reported in 2010. This coating has been removed and the coin is now graded SP 65 Red and Brown, also by PCGS. It is estimated $ 250K for sale by Heritage in Chicago on August 15, lot 31048.

1943 The War Cent
2014 SOLD 330 K$ including premium
PRE 2013 SALE DISCUSSION
The greatest rigor is necessary for the technicians of the mint whenever a change is decided. The error rate of the U.S. Mint concerning actually circulated coins was extremely low at all times, which proves the extreme reliability of release controls.
These abnormal coins are eagerly sought by American collectors. They are right, because their very existence attests the manufacturing practice. Technological expertises, including non-destructive testing of the chemical composition, has made such progress that numismatists know to separate errors and fakes.
The US 1 cent coin of 1943 is one of those innovations that attract the errors. The government is trying to save copper, an essential material to the war effort. This regular issue is exceptionally made in zinc-plated steel.
There were many disadvantages. Users confused the new white coin with the dime that is ten times more expensive.They are magnetic devices which disrupt the coin operated machines. In addition, they oxidize rapidly.
By accident, a few 1 cent coins dated 1943 were struck in bronze, either from leftover planchets for the previous year or by mixing with planchets prepared for foreign operations. The first of these errors was discovered by a schoolboy in 1947 from coins supplied to him by a machine in his college.
Other copies were identified afterwards, affecting the three production centers of 1 cent. Two units have reached millionaire prices in private sales : the best bronze 1 cent from San Francisco and the only known example from Denver.
The 1943 1 cent bronze coin for sale by Stack's Bowers on January 24 in New York has not yet revealed its secret. Discovered by chance by his owner who was sorting his coins, it is considered as an authentic piece of the Philadelphia factory. It is in very good condition, PCGS MS-63.
This specimen is unique in its chemical composition (91.7% copper, 7.5% zinc, 0.8% silver), which does not correspond to any standard used in Philadelphia. Would it be the sole survivor of undocumented tests carried out in the factory ?
It had been discussed by PCGS before the sale.

1943 The Red and Brown Error
2020 unsold
In 1942 the one cent US coin with the effigy of Lincoln is made in a bronze with 95% copper. In 1943 the copper, reserved for the war effort, is no longer available for coins. The Lincoln 1943 cent is made in steel with a galvanized zinc plating. It is 13% lighter than its equivalent in bronze and will remain the only magnetic coin in the history of the US coinage.
The production quality is not satisfactory and the steel cent is too easy to confuse with the 10c dime. Copper is reintroduced in the 1944 cent.
These changes generated a few errors in the three mints, Philadelphia, San Francisco (S) and Denver (D), with two possible causes : tests had been carried out with other compositions, and some planchets from the previous year could remain stuck in the press loading hoppers. The discovery coin was found in 1947 by a schoolboy in the change from a cafeteria machine.
The only known example of 1943-D cent in bronze was sold in private sale for $ 1.7M in September 2010. A 1944-S cent in steel graded MS66 by NGC was sold for $ 374K including premium by Heritage on July 31, 2008.
A 1943 cent without a mint mark, therefore coming from Philadelphia, has an atypical alloy, 91.7% copper, 7.5% zinc and 0.8% silver, of which no use has been identified. Graded MS63 RED by PCGS, it was sold for $ 320K including premium by Stack's Bowers on January 24, 2013. Re-inspected by PCGS and graded AU55, it was sold for $ 330K including premium by Legend-Morphy on May 22, 2014.
On March 26 in webcast, Legend Rare Coin Auctions sells a 1943 cent from Philadelphia with a 1942 alloy, lot 167 estimated $ 375K. Here is the link to the website of the auction house.
This coin graded MS61 RB (Red and Brown) by PCGS is the only one in its class to retain the original orange color of the copper, beside a violet-blue patina on the smooth brown surfaces. The sharpness of the strike attests to the use of new dies in consistency with the hypothesis of the stuck planchet liberated in an early phase of the new production.

1975 No S with Roosevelt
2019 sold for $ 456k including premium
The edition of Proof sets by the US Mint for the attention of the collectors is an old tradition that has only been interrupted once since 1936, from 1965 to 1967. The coins are stored in a box marked United States Proof Set and equipped with a plastic magnifier.
The restart in 1968 is accompanied by industrial changes. The pieces for the Proof set are now produced in San Francisco. The dies are made as previously in Philadelphia. The polishing of the dies, to provide the bright and reflective surface that is not needed for circulation coins, is done in San Francisco.
The Proof set pieces are now marked on the obverse with the S identifying San Francisco. The same plant may also produce in parallel S-less circulation coins in case of an overload in Philadelphia. If by mistake an S-less die is polished, mixings become physically possible. Just like philatelists at the time of the two-colored stamps, collectors eagerly look for such errors.
The release control of the San Francisco plant is thus subject to the severe test of a validation by the general public for quantities that may exceed 10 million units, all denominations combined. If the anomaly is not detected in production, several hundred no-S proof coins can be distributed in the sets. This happened with the 1970 Roosevelt dime, the 1971 Jefferson nickel, the 1983 Roosevelt dime and the 1990 Lincoln cent.
The rarest of these errors is the 1975 no-S proof Roosevelt dime, known in only two units. One of them is kept in its Proof set for forty years in the same collection. It is graded PR66 by PCGS.
The best unit, graded PR68 by PCGS, was sold in its Proof set for $ 350K including premium by Stack's Bowers on August 13, 2011. It is sold individually in its PCGS carrier by Heritage in Long Beach on September 6, lot 4715.
