You'll Take Great Pride Owning Even a Single Coin from this Historic
1865 S.S. Brother Jonathan
Shipwreck
These
$20 Liberty gold pieces are far more than simply a collection of 1865 coins.
They are a reflection of the artistic talents and craftsmanship of a bygone era
in American history.
They have inherent beauty and aesthetic value as highly prized gold rare coins
of the 19th century. Yet these particular gold coins from the shipwreck of the
S.S. Brother Jonathan have unique and irreplaceable value.
Today, there are estimated to be 20 million rare coin collectors in the United
States alone. Anyone who can afford one, would love to own a famous gold coin
from the S.S. Brother Jonathan shipwreck. Sadly, they’re so rare that
only a fraction of 1% of American coin collectors could ever own one! A coin
like this will add significant distinction to your entire coin collection.
Consider Carefully the Historic Rarity Factors
Before this treasure ship was recovered and these coins entered the market, the
1865 $20 Liberty from the San Francisco Mint was so rare that less than eight
were known to exist in all mint-state grades. Now, that’s a truly rare coin by
any measure!
In fact, the trends report shows an 1865-S in MS-63 to be valued at $30,000
each. I’m afraid only a few people could ever afford to own one at that price
level. Naturally, the addition of these coins from the S.S. Brother Jonathan
shipwreck to the market changes the populations and will lower current price
trends.
Q. David Bowers, numismatic historian on this sale, reports, “Prior to this
offering a single high quality mint state 1865-S $20 Liberty would have been
worth tens of thousands of dollars... challenging the $100,000 mark, if you
could find one.” In time, they will become dispersed and difficult to locate at
any price.
The Future of Such a Collectible
While past performance is no guarantee of future value, in our opinion, these
coins from the S.S. Brother Jonathan shipwreck will be quickly absorbed
into the marketplace by Civil War collectors, shipwreck memorabilia collectors,
as well as serious rare coin collectors.
Some of these rare, $20 Liberty gold pieces are designated for museums or
permanent estate holdings. Many of our Austin Rare Coin collectors will put
these away for decades passing them down from generation to generation.
Each $20 Liberty Comes With A Certificate of
Authenticity
Due to the unique historical value you, and future owners, that this coin was a
genuine part of the original S.S. Brother Jonathan shipwreck.
This is clearly a unique group of gold coins in all of American history. They
combine the lure of the American West, a date from the Civil War era, and the
wild west lure of the California Gold Rush Days. What’s more important is that
they are preserved in Brilliant Uncirculated, mint condition after residing on
the ocean floor for over 131 years! Now, you can own one of these lost national
treasures during this exclusive release by Austin Rare Coins.
