RA 35 Digital Catalog

LOT 490 $1 1893-CC PCGS MS64+ CAC This 93-CC is an eye popper that really is all there and then some; it really does border MS65! Both sides are clean and sleek, which is not easy to find. Only with a strong glass can you find a few ticks and light scuffs (nothing major). We’d bet anything in the old days before PCGS this coin would have been called a GEM. A strong, rolling cartwheel luster shows off totally original white, undipped surfaces. Miss Liberty and the details are extremely well struck and frosty. Her cheek is amazingly clean and smooth. The eye appeal is fantastic! The final issue from the Carson City mint saw a mintage of 677,000 which the vast majority of it went right into circulation. VERY RARE any finer. PCGS 633, NGC 217, CAC 70. There are 45 graded MS64+. While the most recent example sold for $30,000, prior to that, these were selling between $35,000 and $38,500 and the current PCGS value is $40,000. This coin, with its great eye appeal sold for $35,250 in our March 2019 Regency Auction and will sell for a similar high price today. It is worthy of a GREAT set of Morgans. PCGS# 7222 | ESTIMATE: $28,000+ 199

LOT 491 $1 1894 PCGS MS64+ CAC Boasting the second lowest mintage of the series, just 110,000 were minted (just 10,000 more than the 93-S). Unlike the 93-S a number in Mint State have survived for collectors, but the higher you go up the grading scale, the rarer they become. In MS64+ and finer grades, this date is indeed quite rare. Beautiful satiny luster radiates with a frosty white brilliance. Well struck there is just the slightest touch of chatter noted that keeps this high end example out of a MS65 holder. PCGS 308, NGC 129, CAC 52. There are only 28 graded MS64+ at PCGS. The current PCGS value is listed at $12,000 and the last two examples sold for over $11,200. There are 3 dozen graded finer, and a PCGS/CAC coin is worth more than $30,000! This great coin will delight any Morgan dollar collector looking to ugrade their set. PCGS# 7228 | ESTIMATE: $10,000+ LOT 492 $1 1894-O PCGS MS64 CAC This is a boldly lustrous and exceptionally high end quality example of this semi-key date. In close to GEM grades as here, this is indeed a quite a rare date. The lustrous surfaces are an intense, beaming, glowing cartwheel bloom with a pleasing shimmering vibrance. The details are well struck and have a definition that shows most of the design elements to their fullest execution. A couple of minor traces of contact are seen, none of which are in the prime focal areas and the cheek is exceptionally clean for the grade. This is a high end coin that has a strong eye appeal, with an initial look of a full GEM coin. PCGS 369, NGC 236, CAC 73. The most recent PCGS/CAC example sold in our June 2019 Regency Auction for $9,400 and prior to that we sold one for $9,106 in our January 2019 Regency Auction. Rare in higher grades, anything finer will be a five figure coin. This is a great looking coin that gives you the eye appeal of a GEM without the price tag. PCGS# 7230 | ESTIMATE: $7,500+ 200

Peach and iridescent selected, high end Morgans. pastel tones can be seen on the periphery on both sides, adding to the excellent eye appeal. PCGS 247, NGC 68, CAC 85. A similar looking example recently sold for $2,640 in July 2018 and we sold another for $2,585 in PCGS 283, NGC 70, CAC 55. PCGS has graded 36 in 67+ and our May 2018 sale of the PFM collection. CAC coins are valued a mere 2 finer. The most recent example that we sold realized well above non-CAC coins, with the current CDN/CAC Bid/Ask $4,583 in our September 2019 Regency Auction. The current listed at $2,400/$3,000, while the current Collectors Universe PCGS value is listed at $5,500. Keep in mind neither of the MS68s value is listed at $1,500. RARE any finer with 36 in 67+ and two have ever sold in auction and PCGS estimates them to be worth in 68 graded higher. $25,000. This is a great coin for any one working on a great Registry Set of Morgans. Good luck! PCGS# 7240 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ PCGS# 7240 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+ LOT 495 $1 1896-O PCGS MS63+ The Morgan dollar series, as ubiquitous as a type as it may be, contains some major condition rarities; dates that are common in low grade, but are VERY RARE in Mint State. Among these Mint State stoppers is the 1896-O, which despite a 4.9 million mintage, fewer than three bags worth have thus far been graded in ALL Mint State grades between PCGS and NGC COMBINED! Clearly, the majority either disappeared into circulation, or into the furnace after the passage of the Pittman Act in 1918. This CHOICE example has lovely original toning on both sides, suggestive of long term album or envelope storage in some old time collection. The obverse center is a delicate peach-gold, which deepens to light teal and dappled gold. The reverse is haloed by a subtle, narrow band of rainbow toning. For the date, the devices are very well struck up, with nearly complete definition over Liberty’s ear. Sure, there are the grade limiting traces of contact, most obscured by the toning, thus not affecting the excellent eye appeal. PCGS 28, NGC 3. VERY RARE any finer. This is the highest grade that most collectors will be able to afford, in MS64, the value is well into the $30,000+ range. By comparison, this MS63+ has a Collectors Universe value of $10,000 and in the last four years, just three other examples have sold in auction, bringing between $7,800 and $9,106. We think this one has a strong shot at bringing a strong price. Good luck! PCGS# 7242 | ESTIMATE: $7,000+ 201

LOT 496 $1 1896-O PCGS MS63+ CAC A classic, old time look on both sides of this important condition rarity. Very few survive in such high a grade and very rare in this state of preservation. VERY CHOICE quality surfaces show very few traces of contact anywhere, even the cheek is very clean and problem free. A delicate dusting of clear gold graces both sides of this excellent 96-O Morgan. Well struck for the date the present example is very high end for the assigned grade and has an exceptional eye appeal. PCGS 354, NGC 143, CAC 20. There are 31 graded MS63+ at PCGS and just 34 are graded finer. The only PCGS MS63+ CAC sold in auction in September 2019 for $9,300. Keep in mind that a 64 with CAC approval will cost around $50,000, if you can find one! this MS63+ is a great looking coin with a strong eye appeal. Good luck. PCGS# 7242 | ESTIMATE: $8,000+ LOT 497 $1 1897-S PCGS MS66+ CAC EX ARIZONA COLLECTION, as noted on the holder. A glorious GEM with a very bold brilliance that consists of a strong cartwheel bloom and semi-reflective surfaces. Sharply struck, frosty devices show off nice definition and pleasingly smooth surfaces. Blazing white silver surfaces blaze all over, with just the slightest hint of the faintest of gold that accents the periphery. The surfaces are exceptionally clean for the grade. Scarce so fine, and rare finer, this is a great example with an exceptional eye appeal. PCGS 411, NGC 123, CAC 96. PCGS has graded 58 in MS66+. There are fewer than three dozen graded finer. While the most recent example sold for $1,740, the average APR for a PCGS/CAC MS66+ is nearly $2,400 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $2,700. The most recent example in one of our auctions brought $3,055 in January 2019. Keep in mind a PCGS/CAC MS67 will cost $7,000+ if you can find one. Seems like a great value play here! Good luck. PCGS# 7250 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ LOT 498 $1 1897-S PCGS MS67 Conditionally very rare this fine, and extremely rare any higher. A frosty and very lustrous coin that is of exceptional quality. Well struck and pleasing, this blast white SUPERB coin shows just a few tiny ticks that keep it from attaining a CAC bean. The eye appeal is quite nice. PCGS 31, NGC 13. The last one to sell realized $7,200 and the current PCGS value is listed at $7,000. Worthy of a high grade Registry Set. Just four are graded finer and they carry with them $20,000+ price tags. PCGS# 7250 | ESTIMATE: $6,500+ 202

LOT 499 $1 1898-O PCGS MS67+ CAC WOW! We have offered some of these tied for FINEST 98-O Morgan dollars, and this one is of exceptional quality within that subset! Everything about it is excellent, and clearly worthy of its lofty grade! The cartwheel luster has a vibrant satiny glow that accents the smooth, problem free surfaces are fully frosted. The impeccably struck devices are razor sharp and stand out and are the epitome of cleanliness and flawlessness.

We suspect that this one will sell for more in today’s market. PCGS# 97255 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ 203

LOT 502 $1 1899-O PCGS MS67+ CAC Sheer, satiny perfection! This coin is the definition of pristine and it boggles our minds that it can survive in such a high end and lofty state of preservation. A bold, vibrant mint luster is the epitome of shimmering, flawless brilliance. Essentially mint fresh, this coin is as stunning today, as it was 120 years ago when it came off the dies. Nicely struck for a New Orleans issue, with crisp, nearly complete definition at the central portion of the devices, which are often flat. This is a totally lovely SUPERB GEM that is among the very finest graded with just a single MS68 graded finer. PCGS 216, NGC 117, CAC 82. PCGS has graded 27 in MS67+. The two most recent examples to sell in our sales were sold in our May and June 2019 Regency Auctions realizing $13,513 and $9,694 respectively and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $12,000. The single MS68 has not sold in auction in over a decade, realizing nearly $30,000, making this a real value play for the collector who demands Premium Quality all the way! PCGS# 7260 | ESTIMATE: $8,000+ LOT 503 $1 1899-O PCGS MS66 DMPL CAC EX LEVI RANCH COLLECTION, as noted on the holder. A real blazer! Intensely brilliant cartwheel luster that swirls all over. Flashy, deeply reflective mirrors beam from all over, surrounding sharply struck, frosty devices. The surfaces are ultra clean and offer a great contrast. The eye appeal is exquisite. PCGS 18, NGC 5, CAC 5. EXTREMELY RARE any finer. Two PCGS MS66 DCAM CAC coins have sold in auction, the most recent in the 2019 ANA auction for $9,300.

LOT 504 $1 1900-O/CC PCGS MS66+ CAC A very high end example of this important over mintmark variety. Remarkable surfaces are as clean and smooth as you will see on ANY Morgan. Even when using a strong glass, you will only find a microscopic tick - even after really searching. The texture of the surfaces is satiny smooth. A strong luster illuminates the totally original, slightly off-white/ pale-golden hued surfaces. Miss Liberty and every detail are well struck. You can clearly see the over mintmark without a glass. The eye appeal is fabulous! A very popular variety in the Morgan series, where an old reverse die, originally prepared for use at the closed mint in Carson City, had the “CC” mintmark partially removed, then the New Orleans “O” punched over. PCGS 183, NGC 11, CAC 51. Just 18 MS66+s have graded finer. The most recent example to sell in auction brought $8,813 in our September 2019 Regency Auction, and prior to that there are two APRs for over $10,000 earlier this year. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $12,500. There are just two graded finer, one in MS67 and one in MS67+. This coin is worthy of being in that company as among the FINEST known! PCGS# 7268 | ESTIMATE: $7,500+ LOT 505 $1 1901 PCGS MS62 The 1901 Morgan dollar is a major condition rarity and is a date that is seldom found in any Mint State grade. The presently presented coin is a borderline CHOICE coin, indeed if it were raw, it would have likely have been described as such. A pearly-satin sheen accents both sides, which are nicely struck and the surfaces are generally clean and free of any distracting marks and the eye appeal is quite nice for the grade. PCGS 353, NGC 210. The most recent example to sell in auction brought $3,480 in September 2019; prior to that one sold for $5,520 in April 2019. The current PCGS value is $5,000. Very scarce finer, and it becomes prohibitively rare in MS63+ and better. PCGS# 7272 | ESTIMATE: $3,600+ 205

LOT 506 $1 1901 PCGS MS64 What a great coin! While the mintage of nearly seven million would suggest common date status, it is the RAREST Philadelphia mint date struck for circulation in Mint State. This borderline GEM ranks among the top three dozen examples that have been graded by PCGS, with just three coins graded higher. First off, this coin is very high quality, we see no reason for CAC not awarding it a green sticker. If it were any other date, it likely would have gotten the coveted bean. Bold mint luster rolls smoothly along both sides of this brilliant white Morgan dollar. The devices are sharply struck with full definition to Liberty’s hair curls and the eagle’s feathers. A couple of very minor, scattered ticks are the only marks seen, and are fully acceptable by the assigned grade. We have seen MS65s of common dates that are not as clean as the present coin. Its status as a major condition rarity makes this a very important coin, a serious highlight of our Regency Auction. PCGS 33, NGC 17. The most recent non-CAC PCGS graded example to sell in auction brought $55,200 in the 2018 FUN auction and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $60,000. PCGS has graded 2 in MS65 and a single coin (the Jack Lee-Coronet-Illinois Collection) as MS66. Anything finer than the present gem will cost well into the six figures: PCGS value in 65 is $300,000 and the MS66 sold for a record $587,500 in our October 2015 Regency Auction. This is a real prize and major opportunity for any advanced Morgan dollar collector, a coin that will see intense bidding from anyone looking to upgrade their set. Don’t let this opportunity pass you by! PCGS# 7272 | ESTIMATE: $45,000+ 206

LOT 507 $1 1902-S PCGS MS65+ CAC A gloriously lustrous example of this conditionally very scarce date. Wonderful, brilliantly swirling cartwheel luster that rolls all over brings a vibrance to the smooth surfaces. Sharply struck on both sides, the cheek is clean and high end quality for the grade, which is a delight for the collector. There is a tiny toning dot on the wing, which will always identify it, but it does not detract from the outstanding eye appeal. PCGS 408, NGC 107, CAC 47. There are 16 graded MS65+ at PCGS and none have sold in auction in five years! The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $3,250. Keep in mind that if you can find one, a PCGS MS66 CAC would cost $7,000+. Good luck!

LOT 508 $1 1902-S PCGS MS66+ CAC This is truly a magnificent SUPERB GEM. We love the look of this totally original, lustrous beauty. It is very high end and ultra eye appealing. Anyone collecting Morgan dollars knows how difficult this semi-key date is to find in GEM grades. Despite a large number released from Treasury vaults from the 1920s to 1950s, the average Mint State coin tends to be on the lower side of the scale, GEMS like the one offered here are indeed quite rare and this coin ranks among the top 15 examples graded by PCGS! Brilliant, bold, vivid cartwheel luster rolls undisturbed across extremely clean and smooth surfaces. Displaying the typical, somewhat softly struck central devices, otherwise the strike is bold. This piece does not show the die striations that often plague the date, but there are some swirling die polish lines noted on the reverse. A few light ticks are seen on both sides, but none are especially distracting or have any impact on the outstanding eye appeal of this very pretty and awesome high grade 02-S. PCGS 62, NGC 7, CAC 15. PCGS has graded 10 in MS66+ with just five graded higher. The most recent PCGS/CAC example sold in September 2019 for $26,400 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $25,000. There are just five coins finer. We sold the two most recent of those: a 67 for $52,875 and a 67+ for just shy of $100,000. This exceptional coin will see stiff bidding competition and will bring a very strong bid from the specialist when the hammer falls. PCGS# 7282 | ESTIMATE: $20,000+ 208

LOT 509 $1 1904 PCGS MS65 CAC Fantastic surfaces for the grade and is essentially fully white. Far nicer than usually encountered for the date and a true condition rarity this nice; downright RARE any finer! PCGS 380, NGC 110, CAC 56. The average PCGS MS65 CAC to sell in auction in the last five years is nearly $2,200 and the current PCGS value is listed at only $1,600. There are 76 graded finer, mostly MS65+ and MS66, and they are appreciably pricier in higher grades. PCGS# 7290 | ESTIMATE: $1,600+ LOT 510 $1 1880 PCGS PR67+ CAC This gorgeous SUPERB GEM Proof is was sold in our November 2018 Regency Auction, and as soon as it was reconsigned we recognized our friend, Blue Velvet! The surfaces are deeply toned in a symphony of blues and greens that are brought out by the bold, flashy, watery mirrored fields. Clearly the rich toning, which is suffused with rose and salmon-orange is a real treat to behold. The eye appeal is simply stunning! Needless to say, this coin ranks among the very FINEST of the date. PCGS 23, NGC 28, CAC 8. There are currently 4 graded at PCGS as PR67+ and just four finer. This remarkable coin sold in our November 2018 Regency Auction for $18,213. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $22,500 and keep in mind that a PR68 CAC sold for $38,188 in May 2015. This SUPERB GEM is worthy of a great Proof Morgan dollar collection and will be right at home in any high ranking set. PCGS# 7315 | ESTIMATE: $16,000+ 209

LOT 511 $1 1921 CHAPMAN. PCGS PR67 LRCA is very proud to offer this SUPERB Chapman Proof 1921 Morgan dollar. Not only is it an extremely RARE issue, but it is the SOLE FINEST graded at either PCGS or NGC. Not only is it the finest graded, we pronounce it to be the FINEST KNOWN in existence. Full proof mirrors beam endlessly from all over. The mirrors enjoy great clarity and cleanliness. In fact the only mark we can find is on the holder. All the die polishing marks are as light as we have ever seen (you really need a strong glass to see them). The contrast on this coin is amazing and here too we don’t see why it is not called cameo. Miss Liberty and every detail are sharply struck. These features also have silvery white frost. The eye appeal is amazing, and your jaw will drop and lock! DO NOT let the lack of a CAC bean give you any pause, this coin is all there and then some! Legend Numismatics and Legend Rare Coin Auctions are proud to have accepted this MONSTER Chapman Proof for auction, we would not have if we didn’t think the quality was all there! It is estimated only 40 were minted by special request by the Chapman Brothers, coin dealers in Philadelphia in the late 1800s and early 1900s. Like Farran Zerbe, who also had specially issued Morgan dollars in 1921, they had connections in the Philadelphia mint, and they were obliged. The Chapman Proofs look more like the Proofs that were struck in 1878-1904, while the Zerbe Proofs (which are more “common” have more of a “Specimen” finish. PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin was last sold in our November 2018 Regency Auction for $229,125, a world record for a Chapman Proof and the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $275,000. Let this be your capstone to any world class cabinet of Proof Morgan dollars. We expect bidding to be intense (like this SUPERB GEM’s mirrors), and a new record to break when the hammer falls.

PCGS 1564, NGC 1244, CAC 263. There are 61 graded MS65+ and we sold the last two PCGS/CAC examples in auction; one in June 2019 for $3,290 and the other in our September 2019 sale for $3,408.

LOT 513 $1 1921 PEACE. HIGH RELIEF. PCGS MS66+ CAC Legend Rare Coin Auctions is proud to offer this very high end GEM 1921 Peace dollar. Easily among the top 10 FINEST PGCS-graded examples. The high relief details of Anthony DeFrancisci’s classic design stand out in a dramatic, sculpted way with full 3D effect. The fields are exceptionally clean and satiny with a warm, ember-like glow. Delicate peach and gold mingle with the pearlescent sheen to the silver brilliance. A strong glass reveals a couple of stray ticks, which are mostly hidden among the devices, none of which detract from the SUPERB eye appeal. After the end of World War I, the mint wanted to strike a commemorative to celebrate Peace. Various artists were invited to submit designs, and late in the year, over a million high relief Peace dollars were struck. While available up to and including MS65 grades, it becomes quite scarce in MS66 and EXTREMELY RARE any finer. There are 10 coins at PCGS that grade MS66+ or MS67 listed on the Population Report. PCGS 197, NGC 135, CAC 40. There are just four graded MS66+ at PCGS and only one of these has sold previously, realizing $31,200 in the 2019 ANA auction. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $32,500 and keep in mind that just ha half dozen are graded higher--and any MS67 will cost into the six figures today. This is an amazing opportunity for any Peace dollar collector. If you are looking for a new set to build, take a look at this 24-piece set, and start it with this one!

EXTREMELY RARE any finer! PCGS 271, NGC 244, CAC 102. There are 31 graded MS66+ at PCGS; three CAC-approved examples have sold in 2019, realizing between $6,600 and $7,200, all well above the current PCGS value of $6,000. Just three PCGS MS67s are graded higher, and none are CAC approved. If you could find one, it will cost you close to $100,000 based on the most recent APR and Collectors Universe value. A real prize for anyone building a very high end set, and a coin that will bring very serious bidding. PCGS# 7358 | ESTIMATE: $6,000+ 214

Boldly lustrous and sharply struck for the date, the eye appeal is great for the grade. Just a few tiny traces of contact away from a GEM designation, this coin has a lot to offer the collector. PCGS 1560, NGC 929, CAC 229. PCGS has graded 157 in MS64+ and the population drops to 115 in all grades finer, which leads us to believe there is a lot of duplication of submissions in MS64 and 64+ hoping for a 65 grade. We sold the most recent example in our September 2019 Regency Auction for $2,056 and the current PCGS Price Guide value is $2,200. The last MS65 with CAC approval sold for $9,900 in the 2019 ANA auction. PCGS# 7364 | ESTIMATE: $1,600+ OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are based on HAMMER. 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. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so Collector’s can have a better idea of 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. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale.

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 534 10C 1796 PCGS MS63 CAC This is a totally original and fully CHOICE JR-1. Easily identified by the die break at Star 1, this is a late die state with bold clashes on the obverse and cracks on the reverse. Richly toned surfaces show off lovely iridescent shades of olive, gold, and pale teal toning that surround the sharply struck devices. All the details are crisply rendered, standing out against the smooth, boldly lustrous fields. The underlying satiny brilliance glows from under the color, accenting the subtle differences in the toning and the sharpness of the strike. A few tiny planchet adjustment marks are noted on Liberty’s shoulder. The eye appeal is exceptional in every way. The dime was authorized in the April 12, 1792 Mint Act, and while silver coinage began in 1794, it focused on half dollars and dollars. In the early days of the mint, depositors would deliver silver to the mint for assaying and refining, then the silver would be used to produce coins. Little demand was seen for dimes and quarters, both denominations did not begin to see any demand until 1796 (Spanish colonial one and two reales pieces served in commerce for the smaller silver denominations). The 1796 dime is a two-year only type, and as the first year of issue, the 1796 is an American numismatic “blue chip” a coin that is in demand from collectors in all grades. PCGS 16, NGC 20, CAC 8. This coin was purchased privately in 2009, for $39,500. The most recent PCGS/CAC JR-1 sold in the 2017 ANA auction for $41,125. This one is a touch sharper and more evenly toned. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $42,500. There are two dozen examples graded finer, and anything finer is going to cost around $70,000. This is an exceptional early type coin that is in an exceptional state of preservation and will fit in nicely in any great cabinet of coins! PCGS# 4461 | ESTIMATE: $36,000+ 224

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 535 20C 1875-S PCGS MS66 The 1875-S 20 Cent piece is the most available date of this short lived, odd denomination series. Although seen from time to time in this lofty state of preservation, it is really quite scarce when it has a great look like this one. Both sides show a thick, frosty mint bloom that glows warmly in the fields. Generally well struck throughout, we do note some mint made roller lines on the central obverse and a shattered reverse die. The surfaces have a pale pearly-silver sheen and a touch of the faintest gold that define the originality of this GEM quality coin. PCGS 62, NGC 49. The current PCGS Price Guide value is $7,500 and our consignor paid over $10,000 for this coin over a decade ago privately. Auction prices today are widely dispersed (from a low of $2,880 to a high of $14,400) each coin bringing what they are worth based on their individual traits. There are just 19 coins graded finer, and we think these are just not appreciated in the market today. What a neat type coin in excellent condition! PCGS# 5298 | ESTIMATE: $4,000+ LOT 536 25C 1875 PCGS MS66 CAC A wonderful, highly lustrous GEM. Both obverse and reverse have a vibrant frost that yield to traces of gold near the peripheries. Generally well struck, there are some minor traces of striking softness in areas, noted only for full disclosure. The eye appeal of this totally original Seated quarter is nice. PCGS 22, NGC 8, CAC 11. The most recent example brought $2,280 in April 2019. Just 8 coins are graded finer, making this a very popular grade for date collectors. This coin has been off the market since 2009, so it is not a retread from any recent auction or dealer boxes. PCGS# 5498 | ESTIMATE: $2,000+ LOT 537 25C 1904 PCGS MS66 This is among the FINEST graded examples, there are a mere 9 in 66 and two each in 66+ and 67. This is a conditionally RARE Barber quarter. Despite a mintage of nearly 10 million, the fact that these high grade examples survive in such limited numbers after 33 years of grading. This satiny GEM has a bold luster and has some light silver-dove, and pale gold iridescent hues. The eye appeal is excellent. We think that a single slide mark on the cheek is all that keeps this coin from a CAC bean. PCGS 9, NGC 3. In 2009, our consignor paid what is now the current PCGS Price Guide value of $3,250. The last non-CAC coin sold for $2,640 in June 2018. Just four are finer, of which only a single MS67 has sold in the last 10 years. PCGS# 5637 | ESTIMATE: $2,500+ 225

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 538 50C 1826 PCGS MS66 A Condition Census level O-101a, an easily identifiable die marriage. What a great looking PQ GEM Mint State example of this date! It is exceptional in EVERY WAY. Both the obverse and reverse of this spectacular coin have a rich, beaming luster with swirling cartwheels and some semi-reflective flash. The luster enhances the razor sharp definition to the classic John Reich design and ultra smooth surface quality. We note a small mark in the obverse field, but it is not distracting to the overall quality and eye appeal of this beauty. Lovely original toning, mostly in shades of blue and rose yield to brilliant pewter-silver tinged with gold. We have looked this GEM over and over with a glass, and we are not sure why CAC chose not to bean this one, the quality is all there! The die variety is identified by a short die crack at the bottom of the date on the obverse and a number of markers on the reverse include mostly solid shield lines, a small tine on the upper left corner of the ribbon, and the spacing of AT and AM in STATES and AMERICA. A couple of die cracks at the lower reverse define the die state. PCGS 10, NGC 15. Do not let the the fact that this coin is not CAC throw you off. This coin’s quality stands right up there with CAC coins we have seen lately. It is truly high end and should be valued like a CAC coin. The most recent ones were CAC approved, selling for $18,213 and $24,000 in September and April of this year respectively. This GEM was purchased in 2009 for $24,500, a testament to the quality for sure. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $25,000. For the date, which had 20 different die marriages, only three coins have ever graded MS67 at PCGS and none of these have ever sold in auction, making this one of the absolute FINEST obtainable examples extant for the advanced date or type collector. Good luck! PCGS# 6143 | ESTIMATE: $20,000+ 226

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 539 50C 1935-S PCGS MS66 CAC This is truly a SUPERB example of this conditionally rare date. Very high end surfaces gleam with an intense untoned, vibrant luster that radiates brilliantly on both sides. Very nicely struck with bold definition throughout, this PQ coin has clean surfaces and a great visual appeal. PCGS 164, NGC 43, CAC 46. This one is cleaner and more lustrous than the one we sold in June 2019 for $3,408. Extremely RARE any finer, with just 13 graded higher at PCGS, and a 66+ will cost around $6,000 with CAC approval. This coin will see fierce bidding and will delight anyone working on a high ranking Walker set. PCGS# 6597 | ESTIMATE: $3,200+ LOT 540 T$1 1877-S TRADE. PCGS MS65 CAC This is an exceptional GEM quality Trade dollar. Though the mintage was well over 9.5 million, the vast majority did their intended job in the Asian trade, and disappeared into commerce in China. Gem quality examples are RARE, and anything finer, excessively so. The present MS65 is very high quality and totally original, distinctly worthy of its CAC endorsement. An impressive, underlying mint luster glows brilliantly on both sides accenting the satiny smooth surfaces and crisply rendered devices. All of the design elements are fully struck up and have a warm frosty texture. Both sides are awash in olive, tan-gold, and iridescent lilac-slate patina. Both sides are very well preserved showing no serious marks, lines, ticks, or any kind of contact of any kind. The eye appeal is amazing. It is a pleasure to offer this coin as part of this collection. PCGS 31, NGC 27, CAC 17. This coin sold in the 2009 FUN Auction for $12,650 and has been off the market since. Other examples have sold in auction for as much as $14,375, though the current market is somewhat lower, the most recent selling for $8,100. With just 17 coins graded finer, this is a difficult coin to improve upon if you are looking to add a GEM example to your set, be sure to look at this exceptional piece! PCGS# 7046 | ESTIMATE: $7,000+ LOT 541 T$1 1883 TRADE. PCGS PR65 DCAM CAC Legend Rare Coin Auctions is proud to offer the FINEST DCAM 1883 Trade dollar graded by PCGS. Think about that, in over 33 years of 3rd party grading, PCGS has only graded this coin as PR65 DCAM and NONE HAVE GRADED HIGHER. As to be expected for a GEM DCAM trade dollar, the mirrors are exceptionally deep, with a bold, beaming clarity in the fields. The fields are quite pleasing with no serious lines, ticks, or any discolorations of any kind. The sharply rendered devices display a thick, white frosty texture which contrasts boldly against the deeply mirrored fields. The eye appeal is wonderful, as to be expected of a coin of this high grade. Only 979 Proofs were struck. PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. This coin last sold over a decade ago, bringing $11,500, but the current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $15,000 and a PR64 DCAM sold for a very strong premium more recently. We suspect, when the bidding finally ends, this coin will bring a record bid. Good luck! PCGS# 97063 | ESTIMATE: $12,000+ 227

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 542 G$1 1883 PCGS MS67 This is a SUPERB example of this date! Vivid luster radiates boldly on both sides with strong, satiny frost. Sharply struck up, the devices are fully rendered with a full crisp. The color is awesome and the surface preservation is excellent. This is a very pleasing coin! A lower mintage date, only 10,800 were struck. PCGS 119, NGC 70. We are not sure why CAC did not bean this SUPERB GEM. This coin sold in November 2008 for $4,888. Unfortunately the market has put it on sale. Despite not being CAC, this coin is high end and very pleasing and should bring a premium bid. PCGS# 7584 | ESTIMATE: $2,400+ LOT 543 G$1 1884 PCGS MS67+ CAC Unbelievable high end quality! This coin ranks among the very finest examples graded at PCGS: the Population Report shows 2 in MS67+, 7 in MS68, and one each in MS68+ and MS69. This coin is AWESOME! Ultra flashy, fully Prooflike reflective luster blooms vividly across both the obverse and reverse. All the details are crisp, with fully defined devices in all areas. The obverse fields show a slight orange peel texture. A strong glass fails to reveal anything more than a tiny tick anywhere. The eye appeal is spectacular and this coin is essentially pristine PCGS 18, NGC 13, CAC 14. PCGS has graded just two in MS67+, neither of which have ever sold in auction. The current Collectors Universe Price Guide value is listed at $5,500 and just keep in mind that the most recent comp that we have sold was a PCGS/CAC MS68 that realized $22,913 in our October 2017 Regency Auction. We like this coin as much as that one, and this coin will see very spirited bidding from any collector demanding ultra high end quality examples for their collections. Good luck!

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 545 $2.50 1895 PCGS MS66+ CAC WOW! What an amazing SUPERB GEM example of this very low mintage issue. Only 6,000 quarter eagles were struck and this one ranks among the FINEST GRADED! A stunning, brilliant, rolling cartwheel luster radiates on both sides of this exceptional quality coin. It is very high end, and borders on an even higher grade designation. The fields are sleek, showing off a vibrant orange-gold tone that is highly original. The sharply struck up devices display razor sharp definition and the surfaces are clean and free of any kind of mark, line, or discoloration that would limit the grade or effect the awesome eye appeal. PCGS 31, NGC 15, CAC 7. There are 17 listed as being MS66+ at PCGS, but that seems high to us. None have sold in auction (the example that shows under 66+ in the databases is actually a regular MS66, which was in our October 2017 Regency Auction, selling for $10,281). The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $12,500 and this coin should hit that level. Only a single MS67 is graded finer, making this a perfect coin for a top rate Registry Set. We anticipate strong bidding and this glorious coin will perhaps set a new record price when the hammer falls.

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 548 $2.50 1882 PCGS PR66 DCAM CAC Legend Rare Coin Auctions is proud to offer this SUPERB Deep Cameo 1882 quarter eagle Proof. It is clearly one of the FINEST examples seen at PCGS and may well be one of the FINEST KNOWN period. The eye appeal is AMAZING in every way. First off the contrast is as dramatic as you would expect for a modern coin. The mirrored fields are deep, beaming, and blindingly reflective and show a bold clarity. There is no haze or anything more than a hairline that can be found anywhere that would limit the grade. Exceptional orange peel texture in the fields is truly a delight to behold and adds to the outstanding and totally original eye appeal. The devices are razor sharp in strike and have a very thick frost. A strong glass fails to find any flaws of any kind. The eye appeal is stunning. From an original mintage of 67, John Dannreuther notes that 20-24 survive today. There are 12 enumerated examples in his census, two of which are impounded in institutional collections, one in the ANS and one in the NNC. This is not the Bass coin, which was graded PR65 in Bass III:244, nor does it appear to be the Pittman II:1845. Dannreuther’s Significant Examples listing shows that the Bass, Pittman, Garrett, Eliasberg, Amon Carter, and Kaufman collections coins have not appeared in decades. PCGS 2, NGC 1, CAC 3. PCGS has graded just 2 in PR66+ DCAM graded finer. No DCAM has sold in auction in a generation! A PR66+ DCAM with CAC approval is currently on the market with an ask price of $82,500. An NGC PR66 CAM CAC sold in October 2012 for $41,125. In DCAM, PCGS does not list a Price Guide value above PR65+. We expect this SUPERB GEM to bring a record price when the hammer falls. We wish to congratulate the winning bidder for adding a world class coin to their set. PCGS# 87908 | ESTIMATE: $40,000+ 230

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 549 $2.50 1908 PCGS MS66 CAC This is an immaculate GEM! What a fantastic, superb quality example of the first year of the type. For a $2.5 Indian, the surfaces are remarkably clean and lustrous with a beautiful two tone original gold with pale orange gold highlights. All of the incuse details are very well struck. A strong glass reveals a tiny tick or two, but even the dreaded right reverse field is high end. The luster is good and is glowing and there here are NO spots or discolorations anywhere. PCGS 113, NGC 65, CAC 22. It has been two and a half years since a PCGS/CAC example sold in auction, but more recently in April 2019 a non-CAC coin sold for $13,200 and we just sold the Coronet MS66+ CAC for $22,325. The current published prices for MS 66 PCGS CAC Indian $2.5 are all wrong-because so few have traded. We fully expect this coin to bring in the low five figures. Finding PCSG CAC gold is very difficult these days. This coin will be a great addition or beginning to any set! Good luck! PCGS# 7939 | ESTIMATE: $8,000+ LOT 550 $2.50 1926 PCGS MS65 This is a totally original and very eye appealing example of this later date Indian Head quarter eagle. Rich orange-gold color radiates across the frosty, satiny lustrous surfaces. The details are richly embossed in the surfaces of the coin and the fields are generally pleasing quality with just a few hidden traces of contact. Housed in an old green tag holder, the eye appeal is excellent. PCGS 823, NGC 618. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $1,500. Our consignor bought this GEM back in 2009, when auction prices were regularly in the $3,500 to $4,000+ range.

Only when using a strong glass can you see a single lint mark on the reverse that is probably what keeps this killer piece from an MS67. A full booming luster beams from all over. This coin has exceptional original colors. The peripheries are moderate reddish gold while the centers are a deeper gold color. There are NO spots or discolorations. Miss Liberty and the details are super frosty and are fully struck. The eye appeal is incredible! PCGS 32, NGC 13, CAC 16. The last PCGS CAC piece to sell in auction brought $19,975 in September 2014. That is FIVE long years ago. The current Collectors Universe Value is $18,500. With gold on the rise more people will be buying better gold coins and we expect many to build Gold Type sets. This is a remarkable coin any picky buyer would want in their set.

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 552 $3 1888 PCGS PR65 CAM This is a very pleasing, original GEM with bold cameo contrast on both sides. The surfaces are generally very smooth, free of any serious contact or signs of mishandling. The surfaces are bathed in a warm glow of rich orange gold that add to the delightful visual allure! Only 291 Proofs were struck. PCGS 11, NGC 19. The most recent PCGS graded example realized $28,800, but the current PCGS value is listed at $35,000 and this one has a richer orange-gold color and should sell for more. Keep in mind that a mere 9 coins are graded higher in the CAM designation, making this a great coin for any Proof Gold Type Set. Good luck! PCGS# 88052 | ESTIMATE: $28,000+ 232

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 553 $5 1803/2 PCGS MS64 This is a very pleasing BD-3 and must be among the finest known of this variety, with approximately 125-175 survivors estimated. The eye appeal is exceptional in every way. A bold mint luster blooms vividly on both sides, which enlivens the richness of the orange and rose gold accents. Every detail is boldly and crisply rendered, with a thick mint frosty texture that contrasts nicely against the satiny glow of the golden fields. Accounting for the near-GEM grade are a few tiny, widely scattered traces of contact. This is one of the FINEST examples of this R-4 die marriage. Housed in an older blue tag holder. This is a great type coin. All 1803 half eagles are overdates, utilizing two different 1803/2 obverse dies, three of these share the same obverse. None are particularly difficult to acquire, all but one is rated R-4 in the Bass-Dannreuther reference. Where these become rare is in Mint State grades, especially above MS63. Near-Gem quality examples are represented by just a couple dozen examples between PCGS and NGC and that includes duplicate submissions trying for a higher grade designation. Anything finer is going to be quite elusive (only four coins have graded finer than MS64 at PCGS after nearly 34 years of grading rare coins). PCGS 14, NGC 9. The current PCGS Price Guide value is listed at $45,000, but when our consignor bought this coin, they were regularly selling in excess of $50,000. Indeed, since our consignor bought this coin in June 2009, only four PCGS-graded examples have sold in auction! Clearly these do not appear in auction with any frequency. It must be noted that the last time a PCGS MS65 (pop 1) sold in auction was back in 2007 and the Pogue coin, which is the finest certified, sold in 2015 for over $440,000! This coin is fresh to the market and will see very strong bidding. This coin is fresh as fresh as fresh can be! PCGS# 8084 | ESTIMATE: $40,000+ 233

This coin is destined for the #1 set of Liberty Head Half Eagles. If you are working on this challenging series, you know how rare this date is to find. This coin has been off the market since May 2009; a whole decade has gone by making this perhaps a once in a generation opportunity that should not be missed.

THE PIEDMONT NUMISMATICS COLLECTION LOT 557 $5 1882 PCGS PR65 DCAM CAC This is a STUNNING DEEP CAMEO GEM Proof 1882 half eagle. Everything about it is exceptionally high end and gorgeous, one of the FINEST DCAMs graded and among the finest known of the date. Only 48 Proofs were struck, of which John Dannreuther estimates a survival of 18-22 in all grades. The gold mirrored fields possess a wonderful, rippled orange peel effect that accents the fully frosted design elements. The black and white cameo contrast is gorgeous and captivates the viewer from across the room. Even with a strong glass, all you can find is a stray line or two that is perfectly acceptable for the assigned GEM grade. Matching Proof gold to old auction appearances is difficult to do. Of the 14 enumerated by John Dannreuther, three are impounded in institutional collections: The ANS has the Colvin Randall-J.P. Morgan coin, and the National Numismatic Collection has the old mint cabinet coin as well as the Josiah Lilly Collection coin which was probably Col. Green before going to Clifford T. Weihman. The remaining 11 may or may not be earlier appearances of the same coin; the half tone black and white images do not allow for up close inspection for microscopic lines or other identifiers. PCGS 1, NGC 2, CAC 1. The only PR DCAM graded by PCGS to ever sell in auction was a PR63 DCAM that sold in 2009. Indeed the only recent comparables are PR66 coins: one was the Floyd Starr PCGS PR66 CAM that sold in the 2015 ANA auction for nearly $50,000 and an NGC PR66 UCAM that brought $48,000 in November 2017. The current Collectors Universe value is listed at $52,500. We know that a coin like this, which appears at auction so infrequently, will bring a very strong bid from specialist collectors.
