1829 LM-4 (R-3). Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
CH BU |
$450.00
|
Tip of an arrow feather is directly in line with the tip of the '5' on this distinctive reverse. The obverse displays delicate glowing rose toning haloed in iridescent silver and blue. The reverse displays a wealth of pure, bright frosty silver. This coin is a striking example of the first Capped Bust date, ideal for any high quality date or type collection. |

1830 LM-6 (R-5). Dotted Date. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
CH BU |
$500.00
|
- and approaching Gem. A bold raised die dot appears left of the base of the '1' in the date. Subtle pervasive rose is surrounded by iridescent silver with a touch of blue on this obverse, the reverse center is bright silver. LM observes that ''examples of this die marriage are particularly difficult to obtain in grades higher than EF.'' Here is a delightful exception to this rule. |

1831 LM-6. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$300.00
|
- and virtually in the Choice category. This coin's delicately toned blue-green obverse contrasts with the boldly reflective silver on this sharply struck example of a busy date in Half Dime annals, a coin that would be difficult to duplicate for quality and appeal. |

1832 LM-5. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
VERY CH BU |
$1,500.00
|
- and virtually of full Gem quality. A gentle suffusion of green and rose enriches the obverse. The reverse is largely clear glowing rose with a hint of blue at upper rim. This handsome coin is not a great rarity of the date, but its overwhelming beauty cannot be denied. |

1833 LM-1 (R-3). Last 3 High. Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
CH BU |
$700.00
|
Last '3' in date is high, the reverse shows a small period after 5C. Startling prooflike gleam appears on both sides, obverse center is a dramatic bull's-eye of deep blue and rose. LM state ''examples above EF are difficult to locate.'' |

1834 LM-2 (R-3). MERI Touch at Base. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$325.00

1835 LM-6. Large Date, Small 5C. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated
|
VERY CH BU |
$2,400.00
|
- on the very cusp of full Gem. Lovely frosty silver cartwheel lustre is complemented by a wealth of peripheral iridescent blue and light caramel of exceptional beauty. Here is an exceptionally high grade example boasting the most remarkable visual quality. |
|
|
| 628 |
1836 LM-5. Small 5 C. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$400.00
|
- and close to the Choice classification. A rich flush of clear red-gold covers the obverse, pale gold halos the generally frosty silver reverse. A relatively muted stage of the die clash noted by LM may be found in this boldly struck example's otherwise smooth obverse field. |
|
|
| 629 |
1837 LM-5. Large 5 C. Brilliant Uncirculated
|
BU |
$300.00
|
A subtly gold-toned obverse contrasts with a bold silver reverse on this pleasing example of the last Capped Bust date. A glass finds signs of a light cleaning performed at some point in the past, and the coin is now retoning in fascinating variegated light gold. |
