The 1893 double eagle coin had low vintage and is considered a "sleeper" year. This coin has been in storage within the family since it was acquired by their grandfather, a jeweler, before WWI. See below for more information on the owner.

All jewelry and coins with the code "SD" are part of an original collection belonging to the owner's grandfather, who was a watchmaker and jeweler in the early part of the century in San Francisco, where he owned a jewelry store. He specialized in jade jewelry-making as well as watchmaking and repair. He did some gold panning himself, traveled, and collected loose stones, coins, art, gold, and completed jewelry throughout his travels. The family has decided it's time to pass along Grandfather's collection to new owners.
