Lot # Description Grade Hammer Price 2937 1908 Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $3,750.00 Fresh, vibrant lustre is the defining characteristic of this rich yellow-golden specimen of the first year of issue. Simply splendid. 2938 1908 Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $1,800.00 A near-Gem of the first Indian date displaying marvelously smooth fields and crisply impressed devices laved in full and wholly appealing mint frost. NGC MS64. 2939 1908 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $240.00 Well-defined types in light whisky-gold fields distinguish this example. 2940 1909 CH AU $160.00 Choice About Uncirculated and not very far from full Mint State.

Bright mint lustre. 2946 1911'D' Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $30,000.00 Here is a highly compelling specimen of this ''key'' date Indian Head Quarter Eagle. Unlike the typical example of this issue, this beauty enjoys a very bold strike on both the obverse and reverse. The mintmark is entirely sharp, as is the Indian's headdress on the obverse and the eagle's wing feathers on the reverse. Orange-golden toning bathes smooth, frosty fields and devices. Rare and...  more 2947 1911'D' CH AU $4,400.00 Choice About Uncirculated, on the cusp of full Mint State. This example of the classic rarity of the Indian series boasts strong and full detail including the sharp Denver mintmark that is sought in vain by so many specialists. This coin's remarkably smooth fields show only a mark or two with sufficient effort and a glass. A mere 55,680 pieces were struck of this most coveted Indian Head...  more 2948 1911'D' AU $3,000.00 About Uncirculated. The piece has About Uncirculated or better sharpness and in terms of wear is a strong candidate for Choice quality. The obverse and reverse are both a light pale yellow in color from an old cleaning. Key date, the lowest mintage of the type with only 55,680 struck. 2949 1911'D' AU $3,000.00 About Uncirculated. A great example of this key date, the lowest mintage of the type with only 55,680 struck. Both sides are light yellow gold in color from an old cleaning. 2950 1912 Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $2,800.00 Coruscating, light orange-gold lustre is unbroken and quite vivid on both sides of this early dated Indian Head Quarter Eagle. Well struck and very attractive for the issue, which is very scarce in the higher Uncirculated echelons. 2951 1912 Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $3,250.00 A really pleasing piece with lovely lustre. Rich yellow gold color. 2952 1912 Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated VERY CH BU $700.00 Satiny surfaces with interesting color. Signs of a gentle past wiping. 2953 1912 Choice Brilliant Uncirculated CH BU $1,800.00 A lustrous specimen that would grade higher but for a well concealed arc-like scrape at lower right on the back. 2954 1913 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $200.00 - with the arm's length appearance of a Choice coin. The surfaces are generally clean but the lustre is muted a bit. The color is a pale gold which adds to the appeal of this coin. 2955 1913 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $375.00 - nearly Choice. Deep orange-gold toning over well struck surfaces. The fields are well preserved and are quite lustrous. NGC MS62. 2956 1913 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $230.00 Deep greenish-gold toning over decent surfaces. Full mint bloom gives this coin good eye appeal. NGC MS61. 2957 1913 CH AU $200.00 Choice About Uncirculated, virtually Mint State. Lustrous, pale gold lustre augments surfaces that exhibit just a touch of friction. 2958 1914 Matte Proof MTE PF $3,000.00 - briefly circulated. Almost iridescent finish with a few tiny ticks, mostly in the fields. Characteristic matte tan-gold surfaces exhibit evidence of briefest circulation. Here is perhaps the most affordable piece of Matte Proof gold that one may ever encounter. 2959 1914 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $3,200.00 - virtually Choice. Frosty, bright yellow-gold lustre is the rule of this well struck specimen. The 1914, although common in the circulated grades, is quite a challenge in the Mint State grades, making this nearly Choice coin a coup for the collector. NGC MS62. 2960 1914 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $1,600.00 - nearly worthy of a Choice classification. Very well struck for a coin of this date, and still offering a full measure of rich yellow-golden mint frost on both the obverse and reverse. A premium example of this very scarce Quarter Eagle issue. 2961 1914 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $3,250.00 - or slightly finer. Pleasing lustre pervades the fields and recesses, a glass will find a few trivial tics. NGC MS61. 2962 1914 Brilliant Uncirculated BU $260.00 - or nearly so. Light lemon-gold toning over smooth surfaces. There are some hairlines present but none are too detrimental. Scarce. 2963 1914 AU $200.00 About Uncirculated. Pale greenish-gold toning over gently cleaned surfaces. A reverse rim bruise is this coin's main detraction. Still has a decent look. 2964 1914'D' Brilliant Uncirculated BU $400.00 - with claims to Choice. Very well struck for the issue, this specimen exhibits rich orange-gold mint lustre on both obverse and reverse. 2965 1914'D' Brilliant Uncirculated BU $450.00 - with claims to the Choice category. Satiny smooth surfaces with no main detractions but for a tiny tic on the face. The coin is moderately well struck, which adds further to this coin's eye appeal. 2966 1914'D' Brilliant Uncirculated BU $200.00 Pale gold toning over surfaces that exhibit some light hairlines. The strike is good and the lustre is decent. Page 1 of 2  •  First  Previous  Next  Last  • Goto Page
