Rare gold coin with an impressive design worth over 9 million dollars

Brasher Doubloons are lovely pieces of gold money. New York City made the $15 Brasher, Wing Punch (Regular Strike) in 1787. David Hall from PCGS says that there are only 6 known Brasher Doubloons with the EB Stamp on the right wing of the eagle.

The thing is, not every coin is in the same shape. In fact, only two of them are really nice state examples. You should know that the Garret piece is the best. It went as high as $725,000 in 1979 and $2,415,000 in 2005.

As it turns out, Brasher also made a unique Half Doubloon. You can see that there are many things to think about when it comes to the style and features.

In case you didn’t notice, it’s not written in English. It is Latin and says “NOVA EBORACA COLUMBIA EXCELSIOR,” which in English means “New York in America.”

Finally, the word that means “upward” is excelsior. Last, let’s look at the other way around. It has the word “UNUM E PLURIBUS” on it and a heraldic eagle on it.
