I certainly haven't see many lower grade double eagles, in the sense of coins that are worn from circulation and use, until you get to the...
But I can't imagine that the value would plummet below melt. If nothing else, you could sell them for melt value to a jeweler for making jewelry...
Different question. Why would anyone sell a "cleaned" 1908 St-G double eagle for the melt value or only $10 over melt? Here is one:...

But then maybe I can talk my wife into letting me buy a real 1907 high relief St-Gaudens. Do things like that hold their value or are they up and...
Very interesting! Thanks so much for sending the pictures and informative explanations. Are bullion reproductions --- like the 2009 St-Gaudens...
It's a beauty. I had looked at some high relief ones on the web after I read all the history of the St Gaudens no motto double eagles. But...
Thanks for the considered response. I'm a retired law professor, so I can identify with your reference to a long formal preparation period, only...
Well, the local coin shop guy said that the values of double eagles, even ones in perfect shape, are way down except for a few rare dates. He...
Got another one. What is "reverse graffiti"? I don't see any graffiti on it in the traditional meaning of the term. Here's the listing:...
Got another one. What is "reverse grafitti"? Here's the listing:...
One of the listings of sold double eagles on HA.com says "repaired" but there's no explanation of what that means. Can someone explain it? Here...
