2014 $5 Gold Baseball Hall of Fame Commemorative NGC PF70UC w/Mercanti Signature

The U.S. Mint’s First-Ever Curved Series Hits a Home Run With Collectors

Never before had the United States Mint attempted something so daring. But if Mint officials were going to do something this dramatic, it only made sense to do it while honoring America’s favorite pastime. In 2014, the U.S. Mint introduced its first-ever curved series commemorating the 75th anniversary of the Baseball Hall of Fame. In a clever and instantly iconic design, the reverse features the outward curve of a baseball, while the obverse shows the inward curve of a baseball glove.

When news broke of this incredible event, it shook the numismatic community. The U.S. Mint creates arguably the most widely collected coins in the world, and the curved Baseball Hall of Fame series is perhaps the most successful commemorative it had ever released. In fact, the entire mintage of these $5 gold pieces sold out in just five days!

Thanks to our connections in the coin world, we’ve been able to amass a small hoard of these gold coins. Plus, each has been graded by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) as being in flawless Proof-70 Ultra Cameo (PF70UC) condition, a distinction that means each perfectly-graded proof will have ZERO imperfections – showing all features and fields exactly as the engraver and mint intended.

In addition, each coin has been sonically sealed in its own acrylic holder and encapsulated with an exclusive label personally signed by John Mercanti, the 12th Chief Engraver of the U.S. Mint! A giant in the numismatic world, Mercanti has produced more coin and medal designs than any person in U.S. Mint history.
