1986-2020 American Silver Eagle Collection PCGS PR70 Signed by John Dannreuther

 

1986-2020 American Silver Eagle Collection PCGS PR70 Signed by John Dannreuther
 
The U.S. Mint sent shock waves through the collector market when they announced the 35 year design of the world’s most collected silver coin, the American Silver Eagle, would be changed forever. The 2020 American Silver Eagle will long be remembered and collected for being the last full year issue bearing the beloved Heraldic Eagle design. After 35 years, the United States Mint will release a completely new reverse design to the popular American Silver Eagle in 2021.
 
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a complete year set of American Silver Eagle Proof coins in perfect PR70 condition. Proof refers to the method of manufacture and not the condition of a coin. Proof coins are struck especially for collectors. This set contains a Proof coin from each year of issue (Due to a shortage of silver no coins were struck in 2009).
 
In addition to being certified in perfect PR70 condition, each coin has been hand signed by John Dannreuther, co-founder of PCGS and award winning author.

What is numismatics?

What is numismatics?
 
Numismatics is the collection and study of coins, paper money, tokens, and medals. These are the most widely collected and studied numismatic materials. Other items are stock certificates, checks, and notes of financial obligations.
 
What is the numismatic value?
 
There are three common ways to value a coin – by its face value, its intrinsic value and its numismatic value.
 
The face value is the dollar amount stated on the coin.
 
The intrinsic value is the price the precious metal content of the coin.  A one-ounce silver coin is worth its weight in silver. Silver is currently trading at $27.60 per ounce, so the intrinsic value of a one-ounce silver coin would be roughly $27.60.
 
The numismatic value is the: Date, rarity, condition, mint mark and provenance of the coin. Ultimately the numismatic collectible value is what you are willing to pay for the coin on any given day and what the seller is willing to accept.
 
A collector paid a record high price of  $3 million in 2012 to acquire a 1907 $20 Saint Gaudens high-relief lettered edge gold coin, one of only 20 known. That coin has a melt value of  $1,900.
 
In this example, the face value of the historic 1907 $20 Saint Gaudens is $20.00. The intrinsic value is $1,900 and the numismatic value is approximately $3 million. 

How do numismatic coins differ from bullion coins?
 
Governments issue gold and silver bullion coins as an attractive, convenient way to invest in gold and silver. Bullion coins sell for a small premium of 5% -$17% above the price of their gold or silver content on any given day. Premiums are dependent on the diameter and net weight of the coin. Large one- ounce gold coins have a lower premium than smaller 1/10 ounce coins. The future value of bullion coins is based solely on their gold or silver content on the day you want to sell them.
 
Numismatic coins are collectibles and their precious metals content, if any at all, is only a tiny factor in measuring the value of the coin. The numismatic value is the: Date, rarity, condition, mint mark and provenance of the coin.

1922 $20 Saint Gaudens NGC MS63 Signed by Kenneth Bressett

 1922 $20 Saint Gaudens NGC MS63 Signed by Kenneth Bressett

 
$20 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle coins were named for their designer, Augustus Saint Gaudens, one of the most famous beaux-arts designs and sculptors of the 19th century. They have long been considered the most beautiful coin in American coinage history. The design of the modern Gold Eagles, signed into law by president Ronald Reagan in 1986, is based on this famous design. These coins are close to being 100 years old and will become vintage coins in less than two years. The coins are certified in MS63 condition by NGC, the largest coin grading service in the world.  
 
These coins were never released to the public and were most likely stored in burlap sacks in a bank vault prior to being certified in MS63 condition by NGC. MS63 is a nice state of preservation for the 1922 series. The finest known coin dated 1922 is certified MS66 and lists for $32,000 in the NGC price guide!. This coin is one of ten coins signed by Kenneth Bressett.
 
In 1962, Kenneth Bressett was appointed editor of the Official Red Book, the bible of the coin industry for over 70 years. He has since become one of the most famous numismatic researchers and writers of all time having published numerous books and articles in his more than 60 years of involvement in the hobby. Bressett is the number one signer in the signature series market for classic pre 1933 gold and silver coins. The classic coins he has signs are sought after because of their superior eye appeal and for the very small quantities he signs. 
 
• Classic 98-year-old coin will soon become a vintage coin.
• Low certified population of just 10 coins signed by Ken Bressett.
