Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 393369) The existence of a proof 1854 gold eagle was in serious doubt until early in the 21st century. The only known example first turned up in Bremen, Germany as a clear proof, and sold in 2012 at Heritage in an NGC NGC PF61 CAM holder. It has since been regraded as PCGS PR61 DCAM. According to its write-up at the 2012 Heritage sale, the following had been written by Guth and Garrett in their Gold Coin Encyclopedia. Mintage: Unknown (Unique?) The existence of a Proof 1854 eagle is highly doubtful. Apparently, a set of Proof coins was presented to the city of Bremen [Germany] in July 1854 in exchange for a group of coins (presumably from Bremen). According to Walter Breen, the set was liberated in 1945 and broken up, but this information remains unsubstantiated. Although various 1854 Proof $1, $2.50, and $3 coins are known, none can be tied to that set, nor have any 1854 Proof half eagles, eagles, or double eagles ever been seen. The Smithsonian does not have a Proof example of this date.
Obverse: Christian Gobrecht's portrait of Liberty is surrounded by 13 stars with the date centered at the bottom.
Reverse: Heraldic eagle holding arrows and branch in its claws is centered in the design with the words UNITED STATES OF AMERICA * FIVE D. around the periphery. Mintmark (if any) is located under the eagle's claws.

About CDN Prices
All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.
CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.
Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.
Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.
CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.
