THE NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLECTION PART V LOT 272 $1 1884-O PCGS MS65+ CAC NORTHERN LIGHTS “COTTON CANDY” This piece reminds us of a huge ball of colored cotton candy. No question the technical grade is very high end. You can easily see how clean and smooth the surfaces are all over. Abold glowing luster really enhances the colors. Vivid and totally original shades of gold/amber/violet/magenta/blue cascade across the obverse. We rank the colors a full 9+ on our 1-10 color scale (10 is the best). Even the reverse has light green/ deep champagne colors. The portrait just looks so stunning mixing w/the iridescent colors. The eye appeal is awesome (like all the Northern Lights coins).

THE NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLECTION PART V LOT 273 $1 1885-CC PCGS MS66 CAC NORTHERN LIGHTS “TOTALLY BURLAP” A spectacular ‘85-CC, this coin features 100% obverse rainbow bag toning with prominent textile dots echoing the weave pattern of the burlap Mint bag in which it was stored for decades undisturbed. The combination of high grade, 100% toning coverage, emerald green, and textile dots makes this the most desirable ‘85-CC we have ever seen. Formerly part of the famous Sunnywood Collection- who’s owner would only settle for the VERY best. We´ve only seen one better toned 1885-CC in MS67, which Legend Numismatics paid $35,000 for a few years ago. It´s a myth that 1885-CCs don´t come with wild iridescent burlap bag color. This rarity will see intense bidding! PCGS # 7160 | EST: $5,000+152

You can see hints of the burlap spots all over. Mother Nature sure found one heck of a way to make these coins so gorgeous! Smooth surfaces have just a few trivial tiny ticks scattered about. A strong satiny like luster enhances the colors. A gorgeous mix of pale forest green/purple/violet/gold swirls all over the obverse. We rank the colors a 9 on our 1-10 color scale (10 is the best). Miss Liberty’s portrait just looks so awesome! This will be a spectacular coin to add to any toned Morgan set! This coin is also ex Sonnier-one of the greatest collections of toners ever.

NOTHING impairs the colors. A full booming luster shows off the wild and totally original shades of violet/fiery gold/bluethat swirl all over the obverse. The reverse has a touch of gold around the rims. We rank the colors a 9+ on our 1-10 colorscale (10 is the best).

THE NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLECTION PART V LOT 278 $1 1904-O PCGS MS67 CAC NORTHERN LIGHTS “JELLY BEANS” OMG! This coin is clearly the ULTIMATE 1904-O toner. LegendNumisamtics, PCGS, and CAC all agree the MS67 grade is more than deserved here. Amazing surfaces are super clean and smooth. The surfacesalso offer a headlight luster on top of semi-prooflike mirrors. You know that is a set up for glowing MONSTER colors. Out of this world shades of neon like violet/pearl green/gold/blue swirl allover the obverse. The reverse has a crescent of gold and someblue. When Peacocks see this coin, they nuts and attack as theyare so insanely jealous. When we saw the coin our jaws dropped and locked.

THE NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLECTION PART V LOT 279 $1 1880-S PCGS MS68+ CAC NORTHERN LIGHTS “THE GRAND DAME-MY HEAD EXPLODED”158

THE NORTHERN LIGHTS COLLECTION PART V LOT 279 $1 1880-S PCGS MS68+ CAC NORTHERN LIGHTS “THE GRAND DAME-MY HEAD EXPLODED” THE MOST ULTIMATE TONED MORGAN-EVER Here is the description from our Sunnywood Auction October 2014: “One of the highlights of Sunnywood’s “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” toned Morgan dollar collection; an extraordinary and record-setting example of an otherwise common date; this technically superb monster features an intensely toned obverse with blues, pinks, and true gold, miraculously paired with lustrous classic vertically banded rainbow toning on the reverse. Theleft-to-right toning progression on both sides corresponds perfectly directionally, indicating that the two-sided toning likely formed simultaneously during decades of Mint bag storage. The obverse occupies a narrower band of the color progression than the reverse, showing that the air flow characteristic across the surface was different for the two sides. Perhaps the reverse lay facing up in the Mint bag, but the coin was propped up at the rim, thus allowing limited air flow across the obverse as well. The coin had the exact same appearance when it was sold at auction in 1983, proving that the toning is highly stable and formed naturally over a long period. Ex RARCOA,Auction ‘83 (7/83:1182); held in one collection for 23 years; ANR, New York Connoisseur’s Collection Sale (3/14/06:1147). Legend Numismatics represented Sunnywood on this acquisition, and paid $23,000.00 in 2006. Even if you don´t plan to bid on this incredible coin, you simply have to see it. Good luck!” The Northern Lights Collector had to have this coin. We can tell you that waiting for this sale got him totally stressed as he wanted it that badly--just like Sunnywood instructed Legend, the Northern Lights collector said “pay what it takes!” He paid $35,250.00. We can only hope this coins next home will cherish and appreciate this unbelievable GEM as much as its previous owner who clearly were connoisseurs of the very finest toners! Good luck. We do expect a record to be set on this piece. Out of respect for the entire Northern Lights Collection-this piece, the unquestioned FINEST in the set was chosen by us to be fitting ending to one of the greatest groups of toners ever sold. We will miss this coin and all the Northern Light pieces. PCGS # 9206 | EST: $40,000+LEGENDAUCTIONS.COM 159
