Double Eagle Gold Coins

Question by viking_no3: Any idea how much a 1924 double eagle gold piece is worth?
I'm just curious as to it's value. It was my mom's and was given to me after she passed away in 1995. It was minted on the same year as her birth. I'm not thinking of selling it. Just curious as to its value. I think those coins were 22k and it is on a long heavy 18k gold chain.

Question by Gold Coin Dealer: If you were going to buy a Certified 1920 Saint Gaudens Gold Double Eagle MS64, would you buy NGC, PCGS,?
Which Cert. Company would you prefer...NGC, PCGS, ICG, ANACS, SEGS, NTC, etc...???

Best answer:

Answer by stretch
I think PCGS and NGC pretty much dominate the scene. In fact they're the only two I've heard of under the new system of coin certification. I know ANACS was around before the new standards were put in place. The first thing I would do with any coin not certified by the two mentioned above would be to have them re-certified. For the very reason that the rating in years past was very subjective and not consistent.
Good luck

Designed in 1907, minted in 1933.
Date in roman numerals should be MCMXXXIII if it signifies year minted.
1907 in roman numerals would be MCMVII.

Best answer:

Answer by exactduke
There's many ways to buy your double eagles. Check with your local coin dealers to start with. And I'm sure there are plenty of online retailers. I buy my Morgan silver dollars thru e-bay.

Before you begin buying, get a copy of The Official Red Book - A Guide Book of United States Coins. This will give you an idea of how much to pay for your coins.

Question by Hellion: Value and rarity of 1926 St. Gaudens Double Eagle gold coin?
My wife's grandfather gave us a golden coin as a wedding gift a couple of years back. The wedding was in Poland and the story is that the grandfather bought the coin years ago under communism through the black market as an investment. I know nothing about coins but through a little research on the web, think I may have something of significant value. From what I can tell, it is a 1926 Saint Gaudens Double Eagle. Please excuse my ignorance but I will try my best to describe it. It is a very shiney golden and heavy. It has no blemishes or tarnishes that I can see. If you were to look at it with a very scrupulous eye, I guess it has some minor scratches on the flat surfaces but I don't know if they would be considered scratches or not, but its definitely in great to exceptional condition. I'm just wondering the rarity and value of this coin. I wouldn't consider selling it, and would love to have a family heirloom on my hands. Additionally, how should I store it? I just have it wrapped in a paper towel right now, inside a jewellery box. Any information would be appreciated.

As an additional aside, it was very entertaining to bring it back from Poland. I left Poland immediately after the wedding, as my wife stayed an additional 2 weeks. I kept the coin in my wallet, and really set the metal detector off in the Warsaw airport. I took my wallet out, and sent it through the x-ray machine and saw on the screen, it lit up like a giant glowing ball. They let me through security to the gate. Then about 15 mins. later two guards came walking around looking and eventually approached me. They said in broken english, "We need to see your billfold". They pulled coin out and looked at it puzzled. I wasn't sure of the legality or tax consequences of carrying the coin so I said nervously "It's my lucky coin". The guards looked at it, tossed in the air, one made a comment about how heavy it was, literally tossed it about 2 feet to the other guard, who gave it back to me and sent me on my way.

Hi,
The first thing is the condition of the coin. Condition scales go from 1 to 70. Most of the early gold coins are in the 63 range. It depends on how many marks are on the coin. When coins are struck, they are thrown into a bag with others. They come into contact with other coins, and get marks called contact marks. The fewer marks, the better the grade. Also, if there is any rub or wear on the coin, that means it was used or circulated which also effects the grade.

Do not clean or polish the coin. Leave it as is. The way you stored it acceptable, but you may want to look into something more permanent. Value also depends on the mint mark. This tells us where the coin was made. The mint mark is located under the date. If nothing is there, it means the coin was made in Philadelphia. If a "D" is present, it was made in Denver, and if an "s" is present, San Francisco.

The minimum value right now would be approximately 00 based only on the gold value. But based on condition and the mint mark, it could be thousands. If you can, post a picture.

Final thought is, try to get a quick appraisal at a coin show or store. Be clear that it is not for sale. I say this because there are counterfeits around.

Question by Christian Collins: I have a 1873 s gold double eagle and need to know what its worth. Have any ideas?

Best answer:

Answer by Chief
Ebay has some gold coins for sell and I guess Amazon does too. Check them out. Also, you could take the coins to several jewelry stores or coin collectors (not pawn shops) in your area and get it appraise. I heard on TV that a lot of people are not getting full value when they send their gold & silver in the mail to those advertise on TV. If you need more info, click my picture.

Where is a good place to sell it?

Here are some pictures of the exact same coin on the front, but without the case I have.

Question by Mary: What are these two double eagle gold coins worth?
Hello,
I'm trying to find the actual value for two Double Eagle gold coins I own. The 1st is a 1914s Saint Gaudens, and the 2nd is a 1900 Liberty Head gold piece. Both coins have been graded by PCGS, and both received MS-64 grades. I'm trying to find the wholesale value of these coins. In other words, how much could I expect to receive for each coin if I sold them to a coin dealer?. I looked in the blue book for U.S. coins, but they only list these 2 coins in MS-63 grade.

How can I best determine the actual worth of these two coins?. Does anyone know the answer?. Thank you for your time.

Question by Brandon Damron: How much is a 1933 Gold Double Eagle Proof Coin worth?
i need money and i found these coins in my closet and i want to sell them

Best answer:

Answer by redlemon65
Well, since there were five of them in existence and all of them have been accounted for, your coin(s) (made up your mind) are if you have any are copies (fakes) and not worth the metal they are made of. I have 8 of them and each one says "Copy" on the reverse side. Lots of luck in selling them.
