NumisMedia Weekly Market Report
Proof U.S. Gold Leads Stack's Bowers Spring Showcase
March 16, 2026
Stack's Bowers Galleries had lot viewing for their Spring Showcase Auction at the just completed Whitman Baltimore Expo; the sale was held the following week at their California offices. With bullion sales leading the market, dealers are in need of inventory, especially in gold. This sale contained numerous U.S Gold rarities with Proof Gold highlighting much of the sale. Over the last couple of years Proof U.S. Gold has been immensely popular and even more so when certified as Deep Cameo. We have spotlighted below two highest certified Gold coins that set new sales records. Contact Stack's Bowers for a complete listing of prices realized.
1861 C $5 Gold certified by PCGS MS63 with CAC
The 1861 C $5 Gold is quite rare in all grades, with an original mintage of 6,879 coins, and is especially rare in Mint State. The population reports indicate there are fewer than fifteen coins certified in all Mint State grades. The MS63 in this sale with the CAC approval is the highest certified and it realized $408,000. The previous value listed for the CAC coin was a mere $175,000, which resulted from a sale back in December 2020. There is a long provenance for this coin which is best known by the Elrod Collection, and also served as the plate coin for Doug Winter's 2008 edition of Charlotte Mint Gold Coinage.

1882 $20 Gold certified by PCGS PR66 Deep Cameo with CAC and CMQ
The 1882 $20 Gold in Proof is a true rarity in all grades. With just fifty-nine coins minted, there are less than twenty known to exist in today's market. This PCGS PR66 DCAM, with both CAC and CMQ approvals, is the highest certified, and it brought a historic final sale price of $810,000. Our most recent listed CAC value of $410,000 is from an old listing and it will be updated this week.
