NGC-certified Vintage US Coins Shine in September Goldberg Auction

US coins certified by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation® (NGC®) highlight a Goldberg Auctions sale. Online bidding is now underway for the auction, which runs from September 13-16, 2020.

Among the most anticipated coins in the sale is a 1794 Flowing Hair Half Dollar graded NGC AU 55, with an estimated sales price of $50,000 and up. In 1794, the US Mint struck its first half dollars with a group of 5,300. In 1795, another 18,164 half dollars were minted with dies dated 1794. The two batches combined comprised the total mintage of 1794 Half Dollars. At least six obverse and seven reverse dies were required to produce the 1794-dated half dollars, resulting in 11 die marriages, including the one used for this example, designated as O-101.
