4320 1809 O.106 (R-3). Brilliant Uncirculated BU $5,000.00
1809 O.106 (R-3). Brilliant Uncirculated. The initial appearance is that of a Choice or better coin,...
The initial appearance is that of a Choice or better coin, however, the toning belies a past gentle cleaning. Recovered today with teal through the dentils and russet-gold reaching to the stars and legend while the centers are generally bright silver. Sharply impressed on the stars and curls. Examination will find a couple of faint scrapes on Liberty's neck and nearby field, but these...  more

1821 O.101a. Very Choice Brilliant Uncirculated, virtually a Gem. An extraordinary coin that shows...

The strike is sharp and just a couple of stars show minor central softness. Struck from a lapped reverse die, with the arrow shafts thin or incomplete near the claws. On the obverse the left side of the rim shows weakness from die or...  more
4323 1836 O-116 (R-7 as Proof). Lettered Edge, 50 over 00 blunder VERY CH BR PF $34,000.00
1836 O-116 (R-7 as Proof). Lettered Edge, 50 over 00 blunder.  Very Choice Brilliant Proof. Here is...
Very Choice Brilliant Proof. Here is an extraordinary coin that apparently has been tucked away for perhaps half a century, and does not appear to have been auctioned previously. Toned rich gunmetal gray with glorious blue hues mixed with rose and russet colors on both sides. The surfaces are very choice indeed, and the reverse would probably rate a full Gem if graded on its own. The...  more
