These historical coins are dated 1866 – 1906 made in .900 Fine (90% pure gold).  With a numismatic grade of Extremely Fine, these are limited edition collectors items. When the U.S. govt official recalled gold coins in 1934, they were melted into gold ounce ingots and nearly 95% of the San Francisco Liberty $5 dollar gold mint was lost. A limted number of the “S” Mint Half-Dollar Eagle survived both the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and subsequent fires and the Federal Government “melt down”.

A symbol of America’s strength and freedom is as enduring as the fine gold with which these coins were minted. Struck in 0.900 gold (90% pure gold), only 1,200 coins are graded by NGC and PF69 or higher.
