1793 Chain AMERICA. Sheldon 3 (R-4)
|
G-6 |
$4,900.00
|
Good-6. This obverse shows much of its major detail clearly, including a date spaced '1 7 93'. The 'R' in LIBERTY appears large, high and tipped sharply right, diagnostic for this distinctive variety. The reverse shows the Chain, denomination and fraction to be quite full, and the outer legend is clear although STATES OF appears weaker. Surfaces are deep brown and not of uniform smoothness,... more |

1793 Wreath. S.6 (R-3). Sprung Die
|
AU-50 to CH AU |
$15,000.00
|
About Uncirculated-50 to Choice About Uncirculated-55. This handsome coin boasts a very precisely incused Vine and Bars edge. Die State II without the extra dot above 'I', boldly struck in the wreath, lettering and date. The highest points of Liberty's hair are somewhat blunt. Here is a splendidly centered coin, boasting remarkably full dotted borders, the obverse dots impinge on the... more |

1793 Wreath. S.6 (R-3). Sprung Die
|
F-15 |
$2,600.00
|
Fine-15. A second. The surfaces are mainly hard with just a tiny bit of porosity on the reverse. The strike is good on the reverse but weak on the obverse as is sometimes seen. Blackish-brown toning over fields that possess the normal amount of marks seen with this grade. A very presentable example of this early and historic issue. |

1793 Wreath. S.9 (R-3)
|
VG-8 |
$1,100.00
|
Very Good-8. Lovely deep chestnut brown surfaces exhibit some microscopic graininess that is not all glaring. Several small digs and nicks are noted in the fields and at the rims, while a small hit weakens the '3' of the date. Here is an attractive survivor of this popularly collected first year of issue type coin. |

$275.00

Fine-12. Surfaces are dark, glossy brown with lighter brown highlights, with hints of graininess and some deposits on the surfaces. Here is a fine specimen of this slightly scarcer variety. |

1796 Capped Bust. S.88 (R-4) Club Pole, Balanced Date
|
AU-55 |
$3,750.00
|
About Uncirculated-55. The pole shows a thick club-like end on this distinctive obverse, a triple leaf appears below under 'T' in CENT with paired berries flanking the stem just right of this letter. Lovely reddish-umber surfaces show some very subtle crystalline areas under a glass. This coin is slightly off-round, measuring 28.9 x 29.2mm. Its strike is exceptionally well detailed,... more |

1798 S.187. Arc Cracks. Mint State-60
|
MS-60 |
$5,000.00
|
This obverse shows a well-developed die crack forming an arc from the upper rim through 'T' to the base of 'Y' and back to the right rim at 2:30. A second arc leaves the right rim at 4:00 and curves up to meet the first. The beautifully struck coin's rich, delightfully smooth surfaces are a glossy orange-brown. A meticulous strike results in a wealth of minute wreath detail. Grade places... more |

1817 Newcomb 16. 15 Stars. Mint State-60
|
MS-60 |
$1,600.00
|
This handsome coin displays the smoothly reflective medium brown beauty of higher grade. Fields are refreshingly free of porosity and distracting marks and its beauty is further enhanced by a faintly silver sheen. The quality of strike is shown by the full centrils of each star and a slightly off-center reverse adds to the coin's bold visual interest. Scarce so finely preserved. |

1829 N.6

AU-55 |
$190.00
|
About Uncirculated-55. Nice mahogany-brown over well struck surfaces. A few scattered marks are visible under magnification. Still a decent example for the type. |

- or better. A lovely glossy brown example that has smooth surfaces and exhibits die crumbling on the rim. Well struck and quite attractive. |

1852 N.3. Mint State-60
|
MS-60 |

- with claims to a higher grade. The reverse is rotated approximately thirty degrees counterclockwise. Well struck, evenly balanced chocolate-brown surfaces exhibit pleasant olive highlights primarily on the reverse. |
