Description
Rare Pre-1933 U.S. Gold 8-coin Type set 3.628ozt fine gold MS-60 to include one Coronet Head 1903 P Quarter Eagle, 1907 P Half Eagle, 1894 P Eagle, 1903 P Double Eagle, one 1926 P Indian Head Quarter Eagle, 1909 P Half Eagle, 1932 P Eagle, and one 1927 P Saint Gaudens Double Eagle. These rare coins are survivors of Executive Order 6102 passed in 1933 stating that U.S. gold could no longer be privately held by a U.S. citizen. Most of these coins were then melted down by the government. As a result, very few pre-1933 gold coins still exist, making this set a must have for any coin collector.
Weight: 125.4 Grams
Condition: All coins are at least Mint State-60 or better.
