<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GobrechtReich85, post: 1683260, member: 17921&quot;]There&#039;s quite a few coins in the coronet head gold quarter eagle series with really low mintage figures that don&#039;t command a significant premium, at least according to the &quot;Red book&quot; but I was wondering if they could be properly called sleepers.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Here&#039;s some examples in VF-20 according to the 2013 edition of A Guide Book Of United States Coins:</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; year&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; mintage&nbsp; &nbsp; grade&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; value</p><p>1)&nbsp;&nbsp; 1868&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 3,600&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; VF-20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $385</p><p><br /></p><p>2)&nbsp;&nbsp; 1872&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 4,000&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; VF-20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $425</p><p><br /></p><p>3)&nbsp;&nbsp; 1877&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1,632&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; VF-20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $400</p><p><br /></p><p>4)&nbsp;&nbsp; 1880&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 2,960&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; VF-20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $375</p><p><br /></p><p>5)&nbsp;&nbsp; 1884&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1,950&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; VF-20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; $375</p><p>&nbsp; </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; To me, such modest prices seem to not match the low mintage numbers, but maybe I&#039;m reading too much into it. I&#039;m curious to know your thoughts on the matter. </p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Thanks, GobrehtReich85 :smile[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
