Early U.S. Coins – The Gold Coins of Templeton Reid
By PCGS - July 8, 2020

PCGS has graded a total of 18 Templeton Reid gold coins. To be sure, these coins are highly sought after by collectors of territorial and private-issued gold coinage. Among the 1830 $2.50 coins, a finest-known PCGS MS61 specimen set the record for the denomination when it realized $480,000 USD at a February 2020 Kagin’s auction. Of the six $5 specimens known, two reside at the Smithsonian Institution, leaving only four in private hands; one of those pieces, an example graded Genuine by PCGS, commanded $204,000 at an August 2019 Stack’s Bowers Galleries auction. The equally rare 1830 $10 Templeton Reid gold coin has seldom traded hands at public auction, with the most recent such transaction happening at a Bowers & Merena event where an EF40 specimen took $90,750 in 1984.
