More Gold & Silver Coins Information



The $20 Liberty Gold Double Eagle gold coin is a great way for investors to add growth and stability to their current mix of assets. Investors privately acquire this gold coin which has outperformed the stock market over the last 5 years. U.S. Congress was prompted to authorize the mintage of a twenty dollar gold coin in 1849 due to the California gold rush. Up until that time the U.S Mint created only $2.50, $5 and $10 gold coins. The $20 Dollar Liberty gold piece was minted from 1850 to 1907.

A very common type of world paper collection is to collect notes from "every country". The definition of every country can vary greatly, but this type of collection is relatively inexpensive.

From 1878 through 1957, the US issued Silver Certificates, most of which looked similar to current US paper money. These were backed by silver. In a similar manner, Gold Certificates were issued from 1863 to 1922 and were backed by real gold.

Rare Lafayette Dollar Variety in DLRC Auctions this Week

Thu, 02 Oct 2008 15:57:06 +0000

Duvall 4-E Variety is Just the Second Reported Specimen


Virginia Beach, VA. DLRC Auctions is proud to offer this week the second known example of the rare Duvall 4-E variety of the Lafayette dollar. This variety was thought to be unique until the discovery of this coin, which has been graded AU58 Cleaned by Dominion Grading Service (DGS).


1900 $1 Lafayette Duvall 4-E Variety (Obverse)


 



According to John Feigenbaum, President of David Lawrence Rare Coins, the coin has "the initial appearance of a mint state coin but the luster is almost too nice and lacks the frosty surfaces of a true mint state.


The coin has virtually no wear and has been very lightly cleaned to show evidence of wipe lines upon close examination in proper lighting. The only significant mark on either side of the coin is a 3 mm scratch on Washington's cheek. Without the mishandling, this coin might have otherwise graded MS63."
