1793 Breen 4, Cohen 4 (R-3). 'L' over Juncture, Short 7, 13 Leaves Left

AU-50 |
$15,000.00
|
About Uncirculated-50 or slightly finer in terms of detail. The most lovely, smooth and glossy chocolate-brown enriches both sides of the dramatically pleasing specimen. Close study reveals some very minor surface imperfections around the right reverse rim, almost certainly the result of impurities exposed in the planchet-rolling process. This extraordinary coin possibly places in the... more |

EF-40 |
$1,500.00
|
Small Edge Letters. Extremely Fine-40. The surfaces are uniformly microgranular. The strike is decent for this later die state. Examination of the obverse shows strong die clashing below Liberty's nose to her neck from the reverse wreath. The granularity on the planchet obscures any trace of the die crack through 'ERTY', which may or may not have been present. On the reverse, there... more |

$10,000.00

Choice About Uncirculated-55. A highly desirable example of this issue with clean surfaces and attractive medium brown color with minor reddish tints in the fields. Examination will find two parallel and thin scratches on Liberty's neck, and a tiny edge nick past the 'Y' of LIBERTY, as well as some other very minor edge nicks on the reverse. A sharply struck example of this elusive and... more |

1795 Br.2a, C.2a (R-3). Punctuated Date, HALF Below Leaf Tips. Lettered Edge

F-12 |
$1,300.00
|
Fine-12 but showing signs of an ever so gentle old cleaning on the obverse. The surfaces reveal some trivial porosity on the obverse and reverse, however the appearance is uniform and quite pleasing. The color is a handsome olive-brown. Excellent reverse definition and sharp edge lettering completes this coin. Identifiable by an ever so faint scratch in the field from Liberty's nose... more |

1833 Br.1, C.1. Mint State-64. Brown
|
MS-64 |
$500.00
|
A lovely coin for the collector who appreciates quality of strike and color. Note the depth of the curls on Liberty's head, and the colorful brown and brassy hues which are accented by magenta and yellow tints in the fields. As often seen, the fields are reflective and show minor surface handling marks in the open areas. The reverse die is boldly clashed from Liberty's head, and the... more |

1835 Br.2, C.2 (R-6 as proof). Proof-60
|
PF-60 |
$3,200.00
|
- and enjoying strong claims to a higher grade. This very rare early Proof shows a blend of deep rose-red and russet iridescence on either side. There are a few tiny spots that account for the grade; one on the rim near star two, another above star six, and a third below the '35'. On the reverse, there is a spot between the 'TE' of UNITED. Faint hairlines are visible with a loupe, but no other... more |

CH PF |
$4,000.00
|
- with claims to a higher grade. Brown. Desirable tan to brown patina reveals a few minor stains near the center of the reverse. The color and surfaces nonetheless are quite attractive, as the fields are well mirrored and the design features are wonderfully assertive. An extremely rare Proof issue. This reverse die was first used in 1854 to strike Proofs, then shelved and reused in 1856... more |

|
PF-64 |
$5,000.00
|
Brown. Beautiful olive-green patina is highlighted by iridescent lilac and lavender overtones. The surfaces show one minor obverse spot on the rim above the eleventh star, and a much smaller matching spot at the top of the 'U' of UNITED on the reverse. Delicate mirror fields are free of detractions, and the devices are fully brought up. The date is shallow, perhaps from die polishing, as is... more |
