613 1793 Breen 1, Cohen 1 (R-4). Long 7, L above Brow, Period after AMERICA. VF-25 $5,250.00
1793 Breen 1, Cohen 1 (R-4). Long 7, L above Brow, Period after AMERICA. Very Fine-25. Boldly detailed...
Very Fine-25. Boldly detailed obverse shows 'I' of LIBERTY over juncture of the hair and forehead, the reverse wreath shows 16 leaves at right. The reverse is weakly struck at the center as generally seen, but the overall quality of this example of the first date and variety must be called excellent. Pleasing light brown fields join lighter tan devices to provide bold beauty.
614 1794 Br.6b, C.4 (R-3). Small 9, Small Edge Letters AU-50 $2,250.00
1794 Br.6b, C.4 (R-3). Small 9, Small Edge Letters. About Uncirculated-50 in detail and circulation....
About Uncirculated-50 in detail and circulation. The obverse is very smooth with bold die failure well advanced below the Liberty Cap. The reverse field surfaces were roughened in a past attempt to remove or minimize stains and deposits but the overall visual impression remains highly positive.
615 1794 Br.8, C.8 (R-5). High Relief Head AG-3 / FR-2 $300.00

About Good-3/Fair-2. Top of 4 touches bust, and despite the wear displayed, the head of Liberty is bold enough to demonstrate the appropriateness of this variety's nickname ''High Relief Head.'' Dark fields, lighter reliefs, the reverse is especially granular and shows very limited detail.

Here is a marvelous example that combines boldness of strike with an attractive visual effect. The top half of the obverse is a medium brown that becomes slightly darker at the lower third. All stars, lettering and numerals are quite definitive. There is a tiny mark at star twelve. The reverse is just as distinct with a pleasing cocoa patina. A small discoloration is apparent on the...  more
617 1854 Br.1. Mint State-60 MS-60 $120.00

Evenly struck. Chocolate-brown patina envelopes underlying satiny lustre. Only very minor spotting is evident upon examination.
