1837 RE Half ANACS (small white, cert #936357) This coin is amazing. Beautifully toned, absolutely original (never dipped, IMO), with an unscathed holder that's over 20 years old. The clean holder tells me this has not been in and out of dealer's cases a multiude of times. I do believe this is headed for a 64+ holder, if not better. MS64 $6500
1818 CBH PCGS AU55 Awesome Wayte Raymond toning on a very nice coin. $895 ON HOLD

1934 Texas PCGS MS62 OGH $180
1917 D Type One SLQ raw MS62+FH $325
1939 PDS Oregon Trail Set. Lovely original raw Gem BU set accompanied by the card they were issued in. A couple tiny abrasions may keep the P at 64, the D should grade 65, and the S mint merits a 66, with a beautifully toned reverse. $1600
1891 Seated Quarter PCGS MS62. Mostly brilliant with some bluish/russet/pewter at the obverse perimeters, and some mottled pewter on the reverse. $365
1884 O Morgan Super clean fields and just a few light scuffs on the cheek MS64+. $95 ON HOLD
Pair of raw album rim toned Washington quarters, 1958 P MS63 & 1961 P MS64. $18 each, $32 for the pair
1867 3 cent nickel PCGS PR63, brilliant and mildly cameo, looks 64. $400
1881 3 cent nickel PCGS PR64, gorgeous copper centers with slate blue peripheries, then a touch of yellow on the rims, absolutely original and undipped. Looks 65. $500
1871 3 cent nickel PCGS PR64, nearly a twin to the 1881. Looks 65. $500
1891 Seated quarter PCGS MS64, golden coppery red with vivid greenish blue at the rim. Clean and attractive. $1075
1951 D 50c PCGS MS64FBL. Brilliant and lustrous. Reverse planchet flaw, otherwise 65, wowswer bell lines. $100

1883 NC 5c PCGS MS64 nice, well struck $75

SUPERB GEM half pack (50 notes) Series 1957 $1 Silver certificates, serial starting at C72780351A, ending at 400, with one star in the middle. Perhaps just the faintest hint of handling on the top note, the others are SUPERB. You can see from the side pic how flat and uniform these are. Neat bank strap too, imprinted by the "St. Bernard Bank & Trust Co. Arabi La." ( apparently acquired by Citi Group at some time in the past), with a date stamp on the reverse of NOV 15 1963. $425 delivered. Exceptional item , particularly if you are from Bernard Cty, La.
1897 P Barber Quarter PCGS MS62 Obverse a touch hazy in front of the portrait, brilliant reverse. $300
1952 P Franklin PCGS MS65FBL Beautiful speckled red/gold/amber mint set tone, nice luster $125
1929 P Standing Liberty Quarter ANACS MS63 (old white holder, cert # 719594) A wonderfully original coin with great color at the rims and glassy silvery centers. A few tics on Ms Lib's legs are the reason for the grade, no matter how undeserving. No friction down the leg as often seen on even much higher graded coins, and a very nice strike, though falling short of a full head. An excellent coin, priced @ MS64 bid. $265.
1923 S Monroe Commem PCGS MS63. An excellent original coin. These seem to either be washed out and ugly or deeply toned and ugly, even in high grades (with a pricetag to accompany). This one is neither. Light original specs of tone here and there with well struck, silvery centers (pics show more tan than is present). Priced at, and deserving of, MS64 money. $205
1936 PDS Rhode Island set PCGS MS64/65/64. Another wonderfully original set of coins. Absolutely matched, and undeniable soulmates for the past 75 years, probably in their original cardboard holder up until the early 2000s when they were sequentially holdered by PCGS. Nice glassy luster on each mint, and much more silvery in hand than shows in the pics. A great set. $500
1895 Barber quarter PCGS Genuine. Coded "94" for "altered Surfaces". When I first looked at this under fluorescent light, it was so glossy, I immediately thought, "oh, it's lacquered". However, after inspection under some reveals with a glass, I see absolutely no reason this did not grade AU58, and given a star ( if PCGS did such things) for eye appeal. A beautiful, lustrous and well struck better date. Priced @ MS60 bid. $290.
1931 D Lincoln Cent ICG MS64RD. Again, appropriately graded. This is a very underrated and scarce date in Mint State. While the original mintage may be five times that of the '31S, the population reports show that this date in 64RD and higher is five times as scarce as the '31S. With a PCGS Pop of just 196 in 64RD, and 171 higher (396 in ALL Mint State grades combined), this date should humble the '31S, which has a pop of 1187 in 64RD and 824 higher, with nearly 2200 graded in all mint state grades combined. Think there's a bunch out there raw, waiting to be graded? I seriously doubt it. Nice red coin with very few marks and good luster. Some faint freckling limiting the grade. Tough coin, with a PCGS priceguide listing @ $375 (the '31S lists @$400). $250
1885 P Morgan, raw, MS62. 100% rainbow toned reverse, brilliant obverse with a thin crescent of blue/gold @ 9:00-12:00 Absolutely gorgeous. $149 delivered.
1860 O Seated Half Dime. Currently in a DGS holder graded AU58 with the notation "Cleaned and Retoned". Such a blunt assessment gives no credit to how special this coin appears to be. The strike, color, and luster are simply amazing. Searching through the Heritage archives and PCGS Coinfacts, this 1860 O has better eye appeal (IMO) than either the NGC 67* (Heritage) or the PCGS 67 (Coinfacts). Of course, pictures are no definitive substitute for in hand viewing, and while the two 67s may look better in hand, the offered example absolutely does. There are some hairlines on both sides, but if this were a proof of the same era, the grade would probably be 64. This coin looks to be, at the very least, mint state, and one of the first coins off the dies, surfaces appearing quite prooflike. Being that 1860 was a transitional year for the design, it isn't a long leap to the possibility that this is a presentation piece, cherished for generations by descendants of the recipient, and more recently, housed for many decades in a Wayte Raymond (?) album. Simply, one of the most appealing Half Dimes out there. $1500
1842 Seated Dime. DGS AU58 notated "Cleaned and Retoned". Looking like a long term companion to the 1860 O above, this 1842 has outstanding eye appeal. While the grade here may be accurate, the cleaning is very light and not detracting in the least. The outstanding eye appeal cannot be denied. Beautiful. $500
1937 S Lincoln PCGS MS67 Red gorgeous high end coin, better than most I've seen. registry quality. $400 SOLD
1946 Iowa DGS (Dominion) MS65, High end and very original looks fully "66". $135
