ANA Auction Highlights: Stack's Bowers Galleries

September 7, 2026

Great Collections served as the official auctioneer of the ANA in Pittsburgh, while Stack’s Bowers Galleries and Heritage Auctions were the ANA event partners, providing dealers and collectors with an almost endless amount of rarities to peruse throughout the show. As has been the case for several years now, the actual auctions for Stack’s Bowers and Heritage took place a week after the show at their respective auction house locations, while Great Collections concluded their sale with the customary Sunday evening auction.
Highlights for the Stack’s Bowers Galleries and Heritage Auctions ANA sales will be provided over a two-week period. This week we will cover the Stack’s Bowers sale followed by the Heritage portion next week. Make sure to check the Stack's Bowers Galleries website for a complete listing of auction prices realized. Some of the many high-end rarities from the Stack's Bowers Summer 2026 Showcase are listed below.
Stack's Bowers Galleries
1894 S Barber Dime certified by PCGS PR63 with CAC & CMQ

The 1894 S Barber Dime is one of the top renowned rarities in numismatics. When it comes to auction, which is rare, it makes national headlines giving our industry some well needed attention. Last week the 1894 S in PR63 with both the CAC and CMQ labels brought $1,250,500 in the Stack's Bowers Summer 2026 Showcase. The last time a PCGS PR63 was sold at auction was in a 2019 Stack’s Bowers Sale realizing $1,320,000, which was in a much stronger market. Our current CAC value is listed at $1,375,000. There are as many as three coins certified in PR66 by two of the grading services with the highest auction price noted at $2,160,000 from the 2025 FUN Show.

1796 Draped Bust Half Dollar 16 Stars certified by NGC MS63 with CAC & CMQ

The 1796 Draped Bust Half Dollar with 16 Stars is extremely rare, especially in the Mint State grades. There were just over nine-hundred coins produced by the mint but there are less than seventy known to exist today. Most of these coins are circulated with nearly fifty listed in the population reports. There are just six coins reported in Mint State with the PCGS MS66 being the highest certified at this time: the MS66 sold at a Heritage auction in January 2023 for $1,800,000. The NGC MS63 in this Stack's Bowers sale just so happens to have the CAC and CMQ labels attached, and it realized $671,000. The current CAC value listed is $650,000 which will be updated this week.
