FOR SALE HERE: Easy terms and conditions. PM if you have questions or comments.
NOTE: After I posted this, I noticed that the color balance is off on my camera. Both coins are BROWN versus the reddish tint you see. I will get new photos soon. Thanks, Dennis
1787 Fugio, N.11-B (W-6785), R.4, PCGS MS62BN
The "4 Cinquecoils, UNITED STATES" variety, which is a much scarcer die marriage than the "STATES UNITED" variant. A so-so coin, that is only average for the grade, but the variety compensates for the limited eye appeal. Only a few examples of this variety have ever sold at Heritage. Recently, and NGC MS63 specimen realized $4,700 (3/21/13, HA). I personally have always felt that N.11-B is closer to R.5 versus the R.4 designation.
Priced at $3950
1787 Fugio, N.12-X (W-6820), R.3, PCGS MS63BN, CAC
Possible a Bank of New York Hoard coin, although the coloration is completely Brown on this specimen, whereas many of the hoard coins have some Red clinging to the devices. The quality of this coin is difficult to capture in a photograph. The surfaces display a glossy sheen and are pleasantly free of major planchet striations or voids, which are common to the issue. Looks better "in hand" and is nice for the grade.
Priced at $5250

Thanks for the replies. I have updated the images for correct color. Sorry about that! When I resized the photos, it changed the color to reddish, which has never happened to me before.

A couple more days, and then I will try some other coins.
One more time. Please make offers on either if interested. I am motivated.
<< <i>Your new images are a huge improvement as now you can really get a feel for their quality!
Thanks Broadstruck! Still was difficult to photograph. Almost as hard as shooting toned proof silver through plastic....
