NGC has only 3 MS examples that they have graded 2 @ MS62BN, 1 top pop @ MS63BN. Stacks recently sold a cleaned re-toned or re-colored AU example in the Rich Uhrich sale for $230.00 plus juice.

1864 Philadelphia PA. Great Central Fair PA F-750L-1A NGC MS63RB Lots of Red and Blue Patina = "SOLD", "SOLD", "SOLD" !!!
One of the nicest I've seen even with the spot as these regularly sell on Flea-Bay for $80-110 in circulated and abused state.
These tokens where sold in copper for a dime at the fair, and the silver version for a half dollar to raise funds.
Also listed as a Washingtonia # in Baker's Book (I don't have access to my book right now.)
Some History... In 1861, the Philadelphia branch of the relief organization, the United States Sanitary Commission, began collecting monetary donations in order to supply Union soldiers with basic necessities and medical supplies. Although the Philadelphia branch raised $135,000 in the span of 2 years, the war effort demanded more supplies and support. The success of Sanitary Fairs in Chicago, Cincinnati and Boston encouraged the Philadelphia agency to experiment with its own Fair in June 1864. Local businesses and institutions donated their products and services to support the patriotic cause and exhibited a wide array of valuable goods and curiosities under one roof. Although the Sanitary Commission asked all members of society to support their countrymen, the spectacle was limited to those who could afford the admission prices.
Logan Square was chosen as the site for the Great Central Fair since it was large enough to accomodate the main building, which encompased approximately 200,000 square feet. William Strickland and Samuel Honeyman Kneass designed the symmetrical structure with Gothic details, the elevation and plan of which are pictured below. Union Avenue, the great central "Gothic" artery, bisected the Fair building from Eighteenth Street to Nineteenth Street. According to Charles J. Stille, who wrote a memorial of the Fair for the Sanitary Commission, "this great hall had all the vastness of the Cathedral's long drawn aisles and its moral impressiveness as a temple dedicated to the sublime work of charity and mercy." Various "departments" were organized along the corridors of this mini-town.
Undated 1850's Chesebrough Stearns & Co. Miller NY-154 U.S. Merchant Token Brass ICG MS64 = "SOLD", "SOLD", "SOLD" !!!
Nicer then the images due to the ICG acrylic very lustrous and semi prooflike... sorry NO 'Rod Wax' included.
Some History... When a 22 year-old chemist from Brooklyn, New York named Robert A. Chesebrough, went to Pennsylvania to investigate an oil well. The oil industry was in its infancy, and Chesebrough, like many, was hoping to profit from it. While Chesebrough was there, he discovered a gooey substance known as 'Rod Wax' that was causing the oil rig workers problems, as it stuck to the drilling rigs, causing them to seize up. Chesebrough noticed that oil workers would smear their skin with the residue from their drills, as it appeared to aid the healing of cuts and burns. His curiosity led him to take some Rod Wax home with him and start experimenting with it. After months of testing, he managed to successfully extract usable petroleum jelly. By 1870, Chesebrough was marketing his petroleum jelly product by the name of Vaseline, and within ten years, the product's increased exposure and popularity meant that almost every household in America had a jar of Vaseline.
1860 Miller NY-2054 Great Eastern U.S. Merchant Token White Metal (Aluminum) AU58 = "SOLD", "SOLD", "SOLD" !!!
Very tough to find without damage and only a few GE tokens have crossed public auction in the last decade. All have some sort of oxidation or slight pitting due to salt air exposure from being sold and stored on the ship itself.
Undated 1850's Miller NY-508 E. Lyon U.S. Merchant Token Brass XF45 - "SOLD", "SOLD", "SOLD" !!!
1856-C $5 NCS AU Details Planchet Flaw = Asking $2495 Fully Shipped.
Has Obverse Laminations and Rotated Reverse, Split grade Gem AU Obv, CH AU Rev.
Well struck Charlotte which would command $6-9K in PCGS plastic.
1856-C $5 Gold Half Eagle
A scarce and underrated issue that is quite elusive above XF, in reality it is decidedly scarce in any grade. When Douglas Winter published his �Gold Coins of the Charlotte Mint, 1838-1861�, he wrote that only three pieces were believed known of the 1856-C in Uncirculated condition. Winter commented further, "The 1856-C is probably the most underrated Charlotte half eagles. It is usually seen in Very Fine and low-end Extremely Fine condition with just 16-18 pieces believed known in AU. It is a rare coin in any level of About Uncirculated and it becomes very rare in About Uncirculated-55 or better. In Mint State, this date is excessively rare!�
This piece has striking details that are strong for the issue, as it is much better struck on the obverse than usually seen on Charlotte fives. Liberty's hair curls all pleasingly delineated and separated, and bold, sculptural details. On the reverse it does exhibit a certain typical softness on the neck of the eagle and fletching of the arrows. The surfaces display the usual soft, satin-like mint luster. The lightly abraded surfaces lack the numerous deep abrasions usually found on these coins, with pretty, yellow-gold hues. There are very few abrasions for a coin of this grade, the primary surface defects being limited to a mint error planchet lamination (as struck) along with reverse rotated dies.
This specimen poses a prime opportunity for Charlotte gold specialists, one that will undoubtedly not go unnoticed.
The 1856-C has consistently been considered the most underrated of all Charlotte Mint fives. It is almost always found in VF-XF condition with just 16-18 pieces believed known in AU. In Uncirculated condition, something curious has occurred. In Doug Winter's book on Charlotte gold, he states only three pieces are known in Mint State. So, it looks like either the same three coins have been submitted many times to each of the services in hopes of getting a higher grade, or many more examples were actually extant than Doug knew of when he published his book three years ago and they have all subsequently come onto the market (frankly, we doubt that last scenario). We consider this coin to be the finest example known, bettering the Ex: Elrod coin by a point. The surfaces are bright and semi-reflective with original, intact reddish coloration and luster. Sharply defined on each side, and an atypical coin as such, with numerous small abrasions scattered over each side.
An exceptional coin and a rare opportunity for the collector of Charlotte fives.
1917-D Type Two NGC MS62FH, Ultimate Full Head which on this normally extremely weakly struck Denver delivery is spectacular as the head betters most FH designated Gem examples. Asking = $585 Shipped.
1929-D Walking Liberty 50c PCGS MS62 First Generation Rattler = Asking 
Shipped. Well struck for the date, lustrous original skinned & unmarred surfaces, eye appeal far beyond the assigned grade point.
Take it upon yourself to look at some higher graded MS63-MS66 29-D examples and then stop back as this example is that nice.
To Err Is Human.... To Collect Err's Is Just Too Much Darn Tootin Fun!

Here's the 31-S no issues except a small carbon spot... and coming back as "Questionable Red".
I sent in a few raw Lincolns for a friend of mine and when they came back "Genuine Only" due to "Questionable Red" he wanted out.
Well this This 1909-S VDB and along with a 1931-S and 1919-D have been sitting on my desk for a few months.
I like this a solid MS62 but what do I know I only buy em if the mint messed em up!
It's more so a RD then a RB but now that it's in a DOA slab what's a fair asking price if it was dipped and retoned
Oh here's the UGLY it has some obverse hairlines in the fields when rotated in the light.

Second Strike is 15% Off Center with a very dynamic reverse which shows 3 complete Wheat Ears.

1907 5C 5% Off Center PCGS MS62 = Asking $725.00 Fully Shipped.
Scarce as it's not a common error for the series as I've only seen 3 other examples, a 1918-D, a 1921, and a 1935 that where also double clipped. Last one to cross auction was in 2003 B&M Harrison Phillips sale.
As far a Jefferson errors are concerned 39 is the earliest date I've seen.

1921-S $1 NGC MS61 Huge Partial Collar Looks More Like an Uncentered Broadstrike = Asking $895.00 Fully Shipped.
Largest Partial Collar I have ever seen on a Morgan, reverse looks MS65 all day.
Gem Bu weakly struck almost looks like a Die Trial or Die Adjustment set-up piece, however the rims are fully formed. This example was not struck though grease or any foreign substance, however NGC has designated it as an “Obverse/Reverse Strike Through Mint Error”.
Nevertheless a rare error type to have escaped the mint and would make a nice centerpiece for a ASE collection.

Very scarce error for the Sacagawea $1 series as only a few Partial Collars are known to exist.

This example is well known as it's used in the web art of a few coins sites one of them being coinzip. Along with amazing color this example has robust blinding luster. Very conservatively graded as in hand it has way above the MS64 slab insert eye appeal. Much nicer then any ho-hum white MS66.

1847/7 $5 PCGS AU55 Asking Fully Shipped.
Semi PL Orange Gold Color Pop 1 at PCGS last time I checked. Listed in Redbook w/o a price. This is not the typical 47/7 (small image below) variety which is just doubling of the tip of the 7, which PCGS has graded a few but I guess just rounded into the regular 47 pop. This variety was missing from all of the following major $5 Liberty collections - Garrett, Eliasberg, Bass, Miles, Milas, etc., although Virgil Brand did have a VF example. This example sold for $2K at Heritage in 1996, and also at Stacks in 2003 for a bit higher then 2K. Valued at $2950 in MS60, $15K in MS63 as TOUGH variety as it's the furthest dropped digit in any US coin series.

1890 $5 PCGS AU58 = Asking $1850 Fully Shipped.
LOW Mintage of 4,380 Fully PL with Orange Peel pics in old NGC AU58 holder crossed into PCGS AU58.
Tough Coin sold for $350 in AU in 1965 in AU.
No public auction appearance in AU in over 3+ years.
1913-S $10 PCGS OGH AU50 = Asking $1950 Shipped.
The Key Date from 1907 to 1916-s. Great undipped original color, no distacting marks, nor major hairlines.
I've owned 4 AU58 examples of this date over the years in various holders, and never look really look at AU55 Indians.
This is a jaw dropper even for a tight AU58 set and is another great put-away coin.
1935/34-D Boone NGC MS67 Superb Gem Toned Beauty = Asking $2495 Fully Shipped - Scarce date with the lowest mintage of 2003 total coins, lower then any other coin in the entire 144 pc Commemorative series.
Oozing satiny luster, original skinned mark free unmolested surfaces, and gorgeous peripheral toning.
Take a good look at Boone's Jawbone and Cheek, then while your at it look at the entire Obverse and Reverse and see if you see any ticks or contact marks? Any lines seen are on the NGC slab not the coin, and the mark on the reverse Indians right lower forearm is a die characteristic of this date NOT a knock.
TOKENS
The Little Gromit by John Shipp the artists first Modern Hobo - Asking $425 Fully Shipped.
~ A first carving by a new carver ~
This was named for its likeness to John Shipp's little brother, at an age when he skated with a group that called themselves The Gromits. This was John Shipp's FIRST Hobo nickel ever. He's a goldsmith and engraver by trade.
It is carved on a 1972-D Jeff nickel as he hadn't even gotten his hands on Buffs yet, and on the edge initialed, numbered and dated, JLS #1 4-27-07.
Here it is the artists pics... not my lil dirty fingers!
He is already considered the Picasso of the Modern Hobo carving circuit do to Johnny's originality... these are uniquely his own creations!
