Austin Buying Trust Acquires 1865 Gold Coins from the Famous
S.S. Brother Jonathan Shipwreck
 Austin
Rare Coins is pleased to announce that we have acquired a small collection of
Rare Date 1865-S $20 Liberty Gold Coins from the
S.S. Brother Jonathan shipwreck. Thanks to our Buying Clout and inside
track on the Rare Coin Market, we were able to acquire these for our Preferred
Collectors only.
First, let us tell you about this historic sale. Perhaps you've seen news
accounts in the Wall Street Journal, your local paper or on CNN and
wondered how anyone could ever own coins from a famous shipwreck like this. We
felt the same way. In fact going into the sale, the Austin Buying Trust would
have been thrilled to walk away with even a single coin from the S.S. Brother
Jonathan
shipwreck sale. But our winning bids were more like a miracle!
We Bought the Cream of the Crop at the Best Prices
Going into the sale we knew there were a variety of Civil War Era gold coins
found in this shipwreck. Most coins were very strong and overpriced for their
low quality. But much to our amazement, the second session contained the
highest quality coins at prices far less than we ever imagined and featured
rare, $20 Liberty gold pieces dating 1865 preserved in pristine, Brilliant
Uncirculated, mint condition— despite being shipwrecked on the ocean floor for
over 131 years!
All Coins Certified With Special Notation on Each
Holder
Best of all, the $20 Liberty gold coins we acquired from the Brother Jonathan
shipwreck were in such excellent Brilliant Uncirculated condition that each was
individually graded by P.C.G.S. or N.G.C. to be in mint state condition. These
precious pieces of American history were then placed in specially sealed
holders, with a special grading certificate, that forever authenticates these as
original coins from the S.S. Brother Jonathan shipwreck.
National Treasures of Inestimable Future Value
We take great pride in placing Rare Coins with our clients, which are of high
quality, have historic significance, strong collector appeal, true rarity, or
which represent solid value. These $20 Liberty Type I Gold pieces from the
S.S. Brother Jonathan combine all these factors and more.
Historic Significance as Genuine Civil War Collectibles
To begin with, the value of owning a precious gold coin, minted during the Civil
War, with such unique historic importance cannot be overstated. Even if these
coins were not from the famous shipwreck, they would be perfect for any serious
coin collection.
Collectors Always Want What Other People Can’t Have
In addition, the S.S. Brother Jonathan gold coins are a unique group of rare
coins in all of American history! These 1865 coins are truly lost national
treasures, priceless, and of inestimable future value. They are genuine Civil
War era coins struck in precious metals from the California Gold Rush. What is
more important is that these $20 Liberties are preserved in extraordinarily
high, Brilliant Uncirculated, mint condition– even after residing on the ocean
floor for over 131 years! These are exciting rare coins to make you the envy of
all your friends.
