LOT 229 1C 1802 S-234. PCGS AU58+ CAC Ex Naftzger-Reynolds, as noted on the insert. This “slider” 1802 S-234 has a bold look, interesting provenance, and in a very pleasing grade. The S-234 is a Rarity-3 die variety, and this AU58+ ranks as Condition Census #6 by Del Bland, #8 by Noyes, #8 in the Breen reference and regarded #5 finest by our consignor. Wonderful, even brown with steely overtones on the devices and ample original red color clings to the recesses of the design types on the obverse. Struck from a later die state, Breen’s IV, which features the formation of the cud above the BE in LIBERTY and multiple die clashes. The clash marks created a very interesting arc of lines on the lower reverse. There is some very minor roughness not struck out of the planchet near UNI. Sharply struck, the surfaces are generally smooth and there are no distracting lines or marks of any kind. The pedigree of this coin dates back to the George C. Carlton Collection, sold in Thomas Elder’s December 1917 sale, lot 710. After a number of unknown or unrecorded intermediaries, it ended up with Dr. William Sheldon. From there, it was in the collection of the American Numismatic Society. Transferred to the Collection of Roy E. “Ted” Naftzger, following a settlement between Naftzger and the ANS which involved a number of coins Dr. Sheldon had swapped during his research for his famed works on early large cents. Naftzger sold this coin, via Bill Noyes, to Tom Reynolds. Tom Reynolds Collection, Goldberg, February 2016, lot 264. PCGS 27, NGC 10, CAC 7. There are four AU58+s graded, remarkably all were in the Reynolds Collection. The Reynolds sale in February 2016 took place in a weaker market. Since then, other coins have resold for more.

There is a die crack that connects 28 through star 13 and into star 12. Fairly well struck up, with the central star details mostly split and the devices are nice and crisp. Light brown and mahogany surfaces have some hints of olive, tan, and original underlying mint red. A bold bronze luster is seen on both sides. A small mark and toning spot is seen on the obverse, serving as pedigree markers. PCGS 11, NGC 2, CAC 2. This is the most recent example to sell, realizing $2,520 in February 2020. A non-CAC example which was not as attractive sold in April 2018 for $6,000. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $6,750 and the CAC CPG value is $9,060.

Deep, coppery mirrors beam with ample original RED color mellowing into a violet-brown. The surfaces are completely problem free and totally devoid of all but the most insignificant flecks seen only at certain angles and with a powerful glass.

LOT 234 1C 1858 SMALL LETTERS. PCGS PR65 CAC An incredible GEM example of this rare Proof Flying Eagle cent, bearing approval from both CAC and Eagle Eye, attesting to the quality, originality, and eye appeal. The short lived Flying Eagle series is quite the challenge in Proof with low mintages across the board. Of the approximately 200 Proof Small Letters struck, PCGS CoinFacts estimates 80 survive in all grades. Richly reflective, totally original surfaces have a gorgeous blend of olive and lilac highlights over golden-tan surfaces. The reflection beams all over when rotated in a light. The devices are sharply struck up and stand out boldly against the surrounding fields. Even with a strong glass, we fail to locate even a single tiny fleck or tick that is worthy of mention. The eye appeal is excellent. Only 200 were struck. PCGS 9, NGC 4, CAC 5. Do not let the CAC Pops fool you, only a single CAC approved example ever sold in auction, a GEM from the Gene Gardner Collection, which realized $35,250 nearly six years ago.

To think these survived the ravages of the Civil War in such pristine condition is amazing. This one is boldly lustrous with a warm glowing satiny frost in the fields. Both sides have concentric rings of blue and rose toning attesting to its careful album storage and protection. The devices are sharply struck up and have a great definition. The eye appeal is amazing on this tiny jewel. PCGS 12, NGC 31, CAC 7. This is the only MS66+ and it sold for $4,080 in July 2019. Amazingly there are seven finer at PCGS, and a CAC 67 will cost about double. A great coin for type or date. PCGS# 4366 | EST: $3,500+ LOT 285 H10C 1860 PCGS MS67+ CAC We have no idea how a 160 year old small coin can remain in “untouched” condition for so long. This is defiantly a SUPER HIGH END piece from a time long ago! We are not kidding when we say this piece is untouched. Even using a strong glass you see NO problems. The luster is strong. Both sides are a great job by Mother Nature: original creamy white with subtle gold overtones splash about both sides. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have sharp strikes. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 44, NGC 21, CAC 27. The last one to sell in auction brought $3,120 in August 2020. We cannot believe how badly spanked these have been. We consider these to be “stupid” cheap. The current price guides are behind reality. This is such a neat and obsolete coin PCGS# 4377 | EST: $2,500+ LOT 286 H10C 1873 PCGS PR66+ CAC A borderline SUPERB GEM example! Indeed this coin is very high end for the assigned grade and the eye appeal is excellent. Sharply struck and frosty devices give this coin a near-Cameo contrast on both obverse and reverse. The fields are richly reflective with a bold flash. Totally original, multi-hued toning graces both sides further enhancing the superb visual allure. PCGS 22, NGC 23, CAC 9. Only 600 Proofs were struck There are just two PCGS PR66+ graded. While this coin sold for $1,645 in October 2016, more recently an NGC-graded example sold for $1,920 in August 2018. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $2,000 and just 8 coins are graded higher in the designation.j PCGS# 4456 | EST: $1,500+ 178

LOT 287 10C 1804 13 STARS REVERSE. PCGS AU55 CAC Ex Pittman and Pogue Collections, as noted on the insert. This is the FINEST KNOWN 1804 13 Stars Reverse dime available to collectors! The Early United States Dime reference said it succinctly: “Probably does not exist in Mint State.” To this day, neither grading service has seen anything higher than this CAC-approved AU55.Of the two varieties of 1804 dimes, the 13 Star, listed as JR-1, is listed as Rarity-5, and is slightly less rare than the 14 Star overall. However, in high grade they are about even in terms of rarity. The present coin was struck from an interesting state of the obverse die with a small die crack from the dentils between stars 8 and 9 and some die defects by Liberty’s throat. Most known examples grade XF or lower, and many have serious issues that would preclude numeric grading. At the time the JR reference was published, the finest seen was the AU50 Harold Bareford coin, which ended up in the Ed Price Collection. This one is finer, and when it came up for sale, Ed Price upgraded his world class early dime collection with this specimen. The James A. Stack coin was Choice XF with some minor scratches. The Norweb collection had a low grade example (VG/F), Eliasberg’s example was “AU50, but gouged.” The only coin finer is the one impounded at the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. The present coin has a fabulous, totally original look. Even, dove-gray and pewter-tan patina shows accents of the palest gold in the recesses of the sharply struck up devices. The central portions of the Draped Bust, Large Eagle design types are fully and crisply rendered, with just some weakness at the peripheral dentils along the left obverse rim. All coins dated 1804 have a certain cache thanks to low mintages, poor survival rates, and the famed 1804-dated silver dollar which ranks as one of the greatest coins of all time. The 13 Star reverse die was a work horse of the early mint, striking 1802 dimes, 1802 quarter eagles, 1804 dimes, and 1804 quarter eagles. Offering a superb provenance that dates back to Barney Bluestone’s December 1945 auction, lot 1341 where it was acquired by John J. Pittman, where it remained until David Akers’s sale of the John J. Pittman Collection, Part 1, October 1997, lot 541. Later appearing in ANR’s Kennywood Collection sale, January 2005, lot 342 to Ed Price. Heritage’s July 2008 sale of the Ed Price Collection, lot 1442, as NGC AU55, when it was purchased by D. Brent Pogue. Stack’s Bowers/Sotheby’s sale of the D. Brent Pogue Collection, Part 1, May 2015, lot 1045, where it realized a record $164,500 as PCGS AU55. Our consignor has owned some of the greatest early dimes and this one belongs in the FINEST of early dime cabinets. PCGS 2, NGC 1, CAC 1. This coin has been off the market since May 2015. The current Collectors Universe value is $195,000 and the CAC CPG value is $192,000. This is a world class rarity in the FINEST KNOWN state of preservation and is much more eye appealing than coin #2 on the Condition Census, the extensively pedigreed Parmelee-Newcomb-Bareford-Lovejoy-Bolen-Jewell- Price coin which is NGC AU55 and has some scratches noted (and the images seem to show signs of cleaning).

LOT 288 10C 1804 14 STARS REVERSE. PCGS AU58 Legend Rare Coin Auctions gets to handle some of the greatest rarities, but when one of the FINEST KNOWN examples of one of the great rarities of the early Draped Bust dime series comes in, even we get a tingle up our spines! This is truly an incredible AMAZING example, which as the PCGS CoinFacts Plate, is likely the FINEST KNOWN! In fact, as the former NGC MS63, this coin is listed in the PCGS CoinFacts Condition Census as “MS62 Estimated Grade”, and sits above the Wilson-Eliasberg-Price- Pogue AU58, which ranks as #2. Only 8,265 dimes were struck in 1804, representing two very distinct varieties. The JR-1 has 13 stars on the reverse and is more common overall, the 14 Star Reverse is overall rarer The JR-2 is listed as a Rarity-5, but PCGS CoinFacts suggests 20 survive in all grades. Most known examples are low grade or have some sort of condition flaw that would preclude third party certification. The five finest graded by PCGS are as follows: 1. AU58. The presently offered coin, formerly NGC MS63, ex William Jacob Collection, Heritage, April 2013, lot 4178. No prior pedigree information was provided. 2. AU58 CAC. The Eliasberg-Price-Pogue coin. Ex David Wilson Sale, Henry Chapman, March 1907, lot 694, Virgil Brand (inventory #37166), Armin Brand, consigned to B.G.

(PCGS CoinFacts lists it as going from the Wilson sale to John M. Clapp Collection, John H. Clapp Collection, Clapp Estate to Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr, en bloc, via Stack’s, 1942. We thank Saul Teichman for clearing this up). 3. AU53. James A. Stack Collection, Stack’s sale of the James A.

The currently offered “GEM” AU58 specimen seemingly “came out of nowhere” when it was cataloged in its first and only previous auction appearance. This is an earlier die state than the Eliasberg-Price-Pogue and Stack-Bolen-Pogue examples, missing the bisecting obverse die crack. Possessing a bold strike, the central portions of the obverse and reverse designs are fully and crisply struck up, while the left peripheries show typical weakness, though the definition is stronger than the other AU58 coin. The surfaces are evenly and beautifully toned with a warm dove gray overtones that yield to tannish-gold, soft powder blue, and accents of russet. A blush of underlying luster clings to the surfaces, giving this coin a great look. The wear is barely perceptible, and this coin is essentially MINT STATE, perhaps the only one that has any claims to that status (clearly the graders at NGC thought so, as it was graded MS63 there, lot tag available to the winning bidder). A strong glass will, after careful, intense scrutiny, reveal a few tiny contact marks, but generally, the surfaces are free of any adjustment marks, hairlines, or any other distractions. The eye appeal is incredible for a date that rarely comes nice. We are shocked that CAC did not give this impressive coin its green seal of approval. PCGS 2, NGC 0. When this coin sold in April 2013 as an NGC MS63, it brought the second highest price ever for an 1804 dime, realizing $367,188. Brent Pogue paid a record $632,500 for his example in July 2008. The Collectors Universe value is $300,000. With the Eliasberg-Pogue AU58 impounded in the #1 D.L. Hansen Collection, but missing from his second set. This is the ONLY OTHER chance for any advanced collector to add this important rarity to their set. Do not let it get away from you! PCGS# 4475 | EST: $280,000+

LOT 289 10C 1874-S ARROWS PCGS MS66+ This is an incredible borderline SUPERB GEM, and its quality is absolutely breathtaking! This is the SINGLE FINEST graded by PCGS, and is arguably the FINEST KNOWN 74-S Arrows Dime. This is a rare date in Mint State with perhaps 50 known in Mint State grades, and only five are estimated in GEM or better grades. Wonderful, satiny mint brilliance gleams in the fields, highlighting the sharply struck, frosty devices. A delicate dusting of iridescent patina, showing varied shades of lilac, gold, pewter, and pale blue that come to life in a light. Essentially flawless, this is a magnificent GEM that is FINER than the Eliasberg coin. PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin brought $15,600 in November 2019 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $18,500. As a type coin or Seated Dime, this SUPERB GEM is an exceptional coin for the FINEST of sets. PCGS# 4670 | EST: $15,000+ LOT 290 10C 1877-CC NGC MS68 WOW! What an amazing Carson City dime! Rarely does any coin of any denomination from this era survive in such a pristine state of preservation and to have a dime, a workhorse denomination have such a SUPERB grade is a real delight! While 7,700,000 dimes were struck at Carson City (one of the largest mintages from the mint), only about 125 are thought to exist in MS65 or finer according to PCGS CoinFacts. This MS68 graded by NGC sits at the TOP OF THE NGC POP, with just two other pieces. Bid accordingly. The flawless surfaces are satiny smooth and particularly lustrous, as to be expected at this lofty grade. Depending on the angle held in a light, the fields take on a semi-reflective brilliance that is visually captivating. The boldly struck devices have a glorious and thick mint frost. The only marks we see are mint made die clashing, mostly seen at the central reverse. Lilac and rose gold meld with olive and soft teal which enhance the outstanding visual allure. Thanks to its high mintage, the 1877-CC is often selected for type sets, and this one belongs in a monster set. PCGS 0, NGC 3. This coin brought $22,325 back in March 2015. The finest PCGS has graded was a 67+ that has yet to cross the block. Arguably the FINEST KNOWN, this coin should bring a world record. Good luck. PCGS# 4683 | EST: $16,000+ 182

Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value.

One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend Rare Coin Auctions determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality.

LOT 300 25C 1820 LARGE 0. PCGS MS65+ CAC This is a very high end and high grade GEM B-2, that ranks near the top of the Condition Census for the variety. Five known die marriages for this date consisting of 3 different obverse and four different reverse dies. This variety, the B-2 is readily identified by the leaf which is connected to the denticles on the reverse. Vivid mint bloom gives this amazing coin its great look. The surfaces are creamy and snow white, offering a bold, brilliant luster. There are accents of a light reflection in the fields that brings out the soft champagne gold tone that flits across the surfaces. A strong glass reveals a couple of well concealed toning spots and a tick on Liberty’s cheek, but none of these are distracting to the overall AMAZING GEM eye appeal. Thick mint frost accents bold motifs which are remarkably free of weakness, particularly significant when one considers the screw press used to mint the coins. PCGS 3, NGC 1, CAC 3. There are two PCGS MS65+s graded and the other example sold in May 2015 for $54,050. In our opinion, this frosty, brilliant silver example is more attractive than the other mottle-toned example. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $55,000. The PCGS Population Report shows four graded finer, including the Clapp-Eliasberg-Pogue coin that brought almost a six figure realization in May 2015.

Both sides have a dusting of delicate dove, lilac, and russet-gold toning. The sharply struck devices and generally clean surfaces combine with the original color and luster to imbue this impressive coin with a great eye appeal. PCGS 35, NGC 20. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $5,500 and the most recent GEM to sell was a PCGS MS65 in August 2020 for $2,400. This piece sold in our July 2020 Regency Auction for $2,468 and before that, one sold for $3,240. Just seven are graded finer: 2 in 66+ and five in MS67 are finest.

LOT 303 25C 1846 PCGS PR65 CAC From an original mintage of a mere dozen pieces, the 1846 Proof Seated Liberty quarter is, like other Proof quarters of the decade, a MAJOR RARITY with just 8-10 examples estimated to survive, that is about as rare as the 1804 dollar, 1894-S dime, and 1884 Trade dollars, each of which is a seven figure rarity today. This gorgeous PR65 GEM is tied for FINEST graded and is the ONLY CAC approved example at the grade level. There are NONE graded in any Cameo designation. This coin is totally original with a classic old time look that easily plate matches to the Norweb Collection coin (Bowers and Merena March 1988, lot 1581). A brilliant, watery reflection in the fields boldly comes to life as you rotate this totally originally toned beauty under a light. The underlying beaming mirrors bring to life the dappled golden-russet that accents the lilac-pewter-dove hued silver surfaces. Each detail is expertly struck up. The eye appeal is quite bold indeed! This Norweb pedigreed GEM is arguably the FINEST KNOWN. The Eliasberg coin was graded PR64 at PCGS when sold as part of the Gene Gardner Collection and is now NGC PR65. The Phil Kaufman coin was also graded NGC PR65. John J. Pittman, whose extensive collection was remarkable for its early Proof Seated material lacked an example of this date. A major rarity that is missing from many WORLD CLASS collections. PCGS 3, NGC 4, CAC 1. Only 12 were struck. Clearly there is Crossover and duplication of submissions in the population data. No high grade Proof 1846 quarter has sold since 2015, when several examples crossed the block, (which perhaps made this issue seem more common than it is). This is a very rare and special coin. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $65,000 and we think our estimate will prove conservative when the hammer falls. This is an important opportunity to add a highly collectible coin that is RARER than many classic six and seven figure rarities! These are just too cheap! Good luck. PCGS# 5540 | EST: $40,000+ 188

LOT 304 25C 1897-O PCGS MS66+ CAC A stunning, essentially untoned, essentially SUPERB GEM 97-O Barber quarter! This coin looks like it just came off the dies, it is that brilliant, frosty and lustrously flawless. Boasting an exceptional luster and strike for a New Orleans mint issue, this beauty was clearly lovingly cared for over the years. There is a single stray line above the right wing that keeps this coin from an even loftier grade and tied for second highest graded by PCGS. As it sits, this frosty, well struck GEM is among the top half dozen seen by PCGS. An amazing coin that will fit into any SUPERB set! PCGS 11, NGC 5, CAC 5. PCGS has graded just three in MS66+ and three finer. This coin brought $15,600 as a 66 in December 2020. This one is sharper, more lustrous, and more attractive than the other PCGS MS66+ CAC that has sold. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $15,500 in 66+ and goes up to $21,000 in MS67. A great coin for the FINEST of Barber quarter sets. Bidding will be fierce! PCGS# 5617 | EST: $14,000+ LOT 305 25C 1902-O PCGS MS67 The 1902-O quarter comes from a mintage of 4,748,000, but is a RARITY in any Mint State grade, over the course of the last 35 years, PCGS and NGC combined have graded 130 examples between MS61 and MS68. EXCESSIVELY RARE in SUPERB GEM grades, at PCGS this is the SECOND HIGHEST GRADED with just a single MS67+ finer. An incredible frosty, satiny sheen glows from the surfaces. The centers are a creamy white, essentially untoned silver. Both sides have a bold frame of deep, dappled aubergine tones, the reverse is more toned than the obverse. Sharply struck and devoid of serious marks, this high grade example is worthy of any top ranking set. PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin sold twice in 2020, realizing $13,800 in June and $18,600 in January. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $20,000. We think today, with the market stronger than it was in June 2020, it should bring a stronger price. A coin that will fit into any SUPERB set. With only a single example finer at PCGS, the competition will be fierce! Good luck! PCGS# 5632 | EST: $15,000+ 189

LOT 306 25C 1907-S PCGS MS67+ CAC Ex R.S.D. Collection, as noted on the insert. The 07-S is a true condition rarity in GEM Mint State grades, especially so in SUPERB grades. This is a truly WILD survivor of this S-mint date. Exceptional quality in every regard, this coin has a superb mint luster that booms all over the amazing clean surfaces. The surfaces are toned with a vibrant teal, lilac, and gold tone. Well struck up and essentially flawless, save for some mint made planchet roller marks that were not taken out of the planchet when struck. The eye appeal is amazing. PCGS 2, NGC 1, CAC 2. This is the ONLY MS67+ graded and it has not sold as a 67+ ever.

This B-1, BB-21 has moderate, generally problem free wear. A few minor contact marks and a mild rim bump on the reverse are noted, but the eye appeal is unmarred. The eye appeal is quite nice with deep toned fields and lighter devices giving this CHOICE VF a lovely Circ Cam look. PCGS 64, NGC 444 (all 1795 Flowing Hair dollars in VF grades).

LOT 321 $1 1797 10X6 STARS. PCGS MS64 CAC An incredible B-3, BB-71 that is easily one of the FINEST KNOWN examples for the date, with the added allure of an amazing pedigree: Colonel E.H.R. Green, Eric P. Newman, and Bruce Morelan! This STUNNING example is a very important, borderline GEM Mint State Draped Bust, Small Eagle dollar type. For the DATE, only 7,776 were produced. Mint records at the time accounted for the number of coins struck in a year, and back dated, but still workable dies were used later on, as die steel was quite expensive. Of the coins dated 1797 with the 10X6 star orientation on the obverse, this coin is tied for FINEST graded by PCGS. Offering a SUPERB luster that gleams through the iridescent, original toning. Richer pewter-slate hues blend with lighter blues and hints of olive at the periphery, surrounding lighter silver-gray centers. For an early dollar, the luster shows a full, radial cartwheel band that enlivens the soft shades seen on both sides. While a strong glass reveals some minor “chatter” scattered about, there are no distracting marks of any kind, fully free of any adjustment marks. Sharply struck throughout, any weakness does not even warrant mention and the eye appeal is simply OUTSTANDING. While the Jack Lee and Louis Eliasberg coins have been graded MS65 by NGC, the original cataloger of the Newman Collection noted: “We urge the readers to make their own comparisons. It is our opinion that this is the most eye appealing of the three.” This historic example has only appeared at auction twice since Col. Green acquired it in the early 20th century. Plated in the 1993 Bowers-Borckardt Encyclopedia of U.S. Silver Dollars and listed as one of the Notable Specimens there, but not included in the 2013 revision. Most of Eric Newman’s collection was acquired as a purchase of the Col. Green estate. This coin was purchased for $75. There are no prior pedigrees noted, and this coin does not appear to match the Cleneay or Mills coins, sold in 1890 and 1904 respectively and are untraced since. PCGS 3, NGC 0, CAC 1. Our partner and friend Bruce Morelan bought this coin out of the November 2013 sale of the Eric P. Newman Collection where it was sold as NGC MS64+ CAC and it realized a world record price of $440,625. The PCGS Price Guide is listed at $225,000 which is dragged down by the non-CAC graded pieces that sold in the D. Brent Pogue Collection (May 2016) and an example sold in July 2015. This coin is CAC approved, and when compared to those other two, well, quality and visually there is just no comparison. Bound for an AMAZING, WORLD CLASS set. Good luck! PCGS# 6865 | EST: $260,000+

LOT 322 $1 1802/1 PCGS VF25 What a neat early dollar! This B-3, BB-234 has a very unique look. This piece displays a generally problem free, moderate circulation on both sides. Ages ago, this coin was cleaned before being placed in a Wayte Raymond or similar album where it acquired a lovely multi-colored patina that frames both sides. The devices are brighter silver giving this coin a “circ-cam” look. A few minor marks and a short scratch are noted, along with a fingerprint left when placed in the album. A cool piece that will appeal to many collectors. PCGS 52, NGC 79 (in all VF grades). The last one to sell in auction brought $2,650 in August 2020. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $2,300 and with its colorful look, this coin will see strong bidding. PCGS# 40090 | EST: $7,500+ NOTES 119988
