Lot # Description Grade Hammer Price 5361 1881 Proof-67 Ultra Cameo (NGC) (see below) $16,000.00 Brilliant and beautiful, with the ever-popular "orange peel" surface on both sides. Exquisitely struck. No doubt this piece is as nice as it was on the day it was coined over 120 years ago. Few equals exist. 5362 1888 Proof-65 Cameo (NGC) (see below) $7,000.00 A lovely specimen with "orange peel" fields. Rich orange gold. A tiny lint mark is seen on the cheek of Miss Liberty, and a very tiny lamination is on the reverse below the denomination numeral—trivial to be sure, and probably not worth mentioning.The 1888 is the latest readily collectible Proof in the gold dollar series. Although the Guide Book of United States Coins registers a grand...  more Categories  •  Stack's October 2005 Atlanta Expo → U. S. Coins → U. S. Quarter Eagles ($2.50 Gold) → U. S.

MS-62 (NGC) (see below) $35,000.00 An extremely rare variety, discovered by Harry Bass and unknown to Walter Breen and others. Researcher and gold specialist John Dannreuther has recorded about six specimens, two of which are impounded—a choice Mint State example in the American Numismatic Society and the very unusual tooled double strike in the permanent collection of the Harry Bass Foundation. This specimen is deeply...  more 5365 1829 B-1. Rarity-4. MS-63 (NGC) (see below) $24,000.00 Bright yellow gold, a remarkably light and even shade, with highly reflective surfaces on the obverse and strong cartwheel lustre on the reverse. The reflective nature of the obverse magnifies some very minor marks, mostly concentrated in front of Liberty's profile. Good detail on both sides, a bit soft in the shield as usually seen, old diagonal scrape through top of shield stripes....  more Categories  •  Stack's October 2005 Atlanta Expo → U. S. Coins → U. S.

One of the most popular rarities from the early days of the Dahlonega Mint, a date that saw a production of just 3,523 pieces.

Struck from dramatically shattered dies, as seen routinely for this issue; just one...  more 5368 1857-S EF-45 (NGC) (see below) $375.00 Medium light gold surfaces. Quite attractive overall.

Liberty Head Half Eagles Lot # Description Grade Hammer Price 5377 1841-D AU-55 (NGC) (see below) $4,100.00 A fairly well struck example, of nice appearance, with warm yellow-orange toning. The 1841-D is scarce in all grades, but at the AU level is particularly so. The demand for Dahlonega and also for Charlotte gold coins seems to be unceasing, and every time we offer them in our sales we attract many bidders. 5378 1844-D EF-40 (PCGS) (see below) $2,200.00 Light yellow gold. A nice example, within this grade category. Some marks on both sides are mostly hidden by light toning. 5379 1852-D AU-58 (NGC) (see below) $4,200.00 Somewhat reflective surfaces of bright yellow gold give this 1852-D exceptional eye appeal. The striking is about typical, with some lightness. However, within the parameters of what to expect on a Dahlonega half eagle, this piece earns high marks. Watch the bidding on this one! 5380 1897 MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $1,150.00 Sharply struck with rich lustre. A dandy example, quite affordable, of this late 19th-century date. 5381 1899-S MS-64 (NGC) (see below) $1,500.00 Bright and lustrous honey gold with satiny surfaces that display a hint of faint olive iridescence. A pleasing coin that is every bit the quality the holder calls for. Categories  •  Stack's October 2005 Atlanta Expo → U. S. Coins → U. S. Half Eagles ($5.00 Gold) → U. S.
