Sub-100 Population Coins...
![Boosibri](https://us.v-cdn.net/6027503/uploads/userpics/980/nO42TFZJKETQD.png)
I tried this in an earlier post but didn't exactly get the response that I was looking for. Many folks posted condition rarities, varieties, or infrequently graded World coins. All nice coins for sure but not what I was after.
So let's try again...
Post a Redbook non-variety US mint issued non-proof coin that you own or once owned with less than 100 known in all grades using the PCGS Coinfacts estimated populations as the guide. Looking for absolute rarity here, tough to find, even tougher to find nice coins with only a few in existence in all grades. .

1873-CC Quarter Dollar- 50 to 75 pieces known in all grades. (Uncertified)
]
1797 13 Stars Half Dime- less than 50 pieces known in all grades. (Uncertified)
1860 Stars Obverse transitional pattern half dime- 100 minted. PCGS MS63.
1822 25/50C Bust quarter. Pop. report says nothing about surviving pops., but it has to be well under 100.
<< <i>The CoinFacts estimate is 75 (in all grades). The images are courtesy of BluCC Photos.
Where do I send the bill for my jaw injury after it hit the floor? Super cool coin.

Gosh, that's pretty narrow.

Here's another...
This example is from the James A. Stack collection (not related to the well-known coin firm of the same name).
<< <i>The 1840-D quarter eagle has an estimated CoinFacts population of 65 in all grades, with high grade examples being very rare. Most 1840-D quarter eagles were struck from severely cracked dies. Attractive examples of this issue are very hard to find.

Wow, that is my kind of coin!

Sorry for the crappy pics, coin is prooflike as many are.
PCGS AU55 CAC (Coinfacts estimate of 50 and 27 graded to date at PCGS)

The 72-s quarter might also be in the under 100 club. It's a toss up though.
The 1874-cc dime is certainly <100 pop and is probably the rarest of all 4 of these dates. I've owned 3 of these 4. I've never used CoinFacts but I would rate it's accuracy on how
it rates these 4 dates.

Here is the same date in a smaller denomination. Unfortunately this one has an old cleaning. 1,811 Original mintage, 70 extant.

Estimated surviving population of 40 but overshadowed by heavy hitters like 1864 and 1865.

The PCGS pop on this one is 55 in all grades.
1862 $20 PCGS XF45
I think folks would agree that the more strict definition has brought out some fantastic coins from the forum members here.

This is without a doubt one of my absolute favorite coins Doug has in his Coinapedia site. Congrats on owning it.
<< <i>I'd love to see the coin you combined all of those into! >>

The 61-D Half Eagle posted earlier by GeorgeKellogg is an amazing coin. Extremely rare and incredible look and condition.
