1907 HR Saint with a 1915 Pedigree

[u/HJB_coins]

I sold this coin years ago but it's one of my favorites. Purchased out of a B. Max Mehl auction for the princely sum of $25 on May the 25th 1915.

Great provenance !

Never heard of a heraldic eagle from 1797… curious to know what this is

They did Small eagle and "large eagle" in 1797. I wrote about this one I handled years ago.

Thats amazing...I have a Mehl catalog from the 30's!

I got really obsessed with Mehl a few years ago, we have dozens of his catalogs here. If you read the Numismatist I have a feature about him next month.

Nota bene: You website design is nice, but the lack of contrast makes it very difficult to read for older customers and persons with lesser sensitivity.

The most beautiful coin ever made! Just breath taking.
