Douglas Winter Numismatics is pleased to announce its most recent Concierge Sale™, which features the Indian Rocks Beach Collection of Dahlonega gold. Comprised of close to 50 different coins, the collection contains a partial date run of gold dollars and quarter eagles as well as an outstanding nearly complete run of half eagles including a number of rare mintmark varieties.

The majority of the coins have been graded by PCGS and almost half have been approved by CAC. There are coins for nearly every budget with many in the $5,000-10,000 range, which is popular with Dahlonega collectors.

The collection is very sophisticated in that it features many truly rare and currently under-appreciated half eagle varieties. There are examples of both the Small D and Tall D 1840-D, an 1841-D Tall D, an 1843-D Medium D and Small D, an 1854-D Medium D and Large D, an 1855-D Medium D, and an 1860-D Medium D and Large D. Many of these rare varieties are in high grades; typically in the AU53 to AU58 range.

*1855-D $1.00 PCGS AU58, Indian Rocks Beach Collection*

There are six different gold dollars in the collection, led by a rare Full Date example of the 1855-D graded AU58 by PCGS. Other coins of note include an 1850-D graded AU58 by PCGS and approved by CAC, and an 1856-D graded AU55 by PCGS.

The quarter eagles include 13 different dates, led by a Condition Census 1855-D in NGC AU58+. Highlights include the rare 1840-D in NGC AU55, an 1844-D graded AU58+ by PCGS and CAC approved, and a wonderful high-end NGC AU58 1857-D in an older holder and CAC approved.

The Indian Rocks Beach Collection is best known for its comprehensive array of half eagles with no less than 29 different coins. Some of the many highlights include a lovely PCGS/CAC AU55 1839-D, a rare 1842-D Large Date graded AU53 by PCGS, a PCGS/CAC MS61 1843-D Small D, one of just two 1848-D/D known in Uncirculated (ex S.S. Central America) and graded MS61 by PCGS/CAC, a PCGS/CAC AU58 1855-D Medium D, and two PCGS/CAC 1860-D in AU58; one each of the Medium D and Large D varieties.
