PCGS# 800826. Pop 1 with only 4 examples graded finer.
PCGS #878904. A pleasing example of this major type! The Newman 1-B is most available variety of the historically significant Cross After Date Fugio coppers. Clearly defined with pleasing orange-brown coloration. A pair of prominent planchet flaws near the upper reverse border is noted but the overall eye appeal is strong.
Scarce classic head half cent featuring the inverted 9 digit. The luster is quite fantastic for the given grade.
Low mintage of only 63,000 pieces. This was a workhorse coin of the time, and very few survived in AU to MS grades. A nicely lustrous piece that appears to be conservatively graded.
A wonderful, near-gem type coin with glossy brown surfaces and no distracting carbon spots.
Nice type coin with deep, earthy reddish-brown color and flashy luster throughout. CAC approved for quality and eye appeal.
The impressive "Comet" die break is easy to identify on this chestnut brown early cent. The eye appeal is strong for the grade despite a touch of verdigris on the lower reverse (that is much less noticeable in-hand). These are seldom offered at auction, so this presents a nice opportunity for collectors to fill that hole.
A lovely, light milk chocolate brown example with no spots and full mint bloom. Some striking weakness in the stars but very strong central devices.
Excellent type coin and slightly better 40's date.
Popular Copper-Nickel cent issue. Flashy, almost prooflike fields and attractive coppery color create an eye appeal example, certainly worthy of the gem grade.
Lustrous gem example of this popular Copper-Nickel cent issue. CAC approved for quality and eye appeal.
Beautiful pinks and greens on the obverse paired with a full red reverse. An outstanding beauty.
Scarce date with lovely "woodgrain" color from an improperly mixed alloy. The luster is full on this gem example.
A pleasing midgrade example of this rare and desirable variety known for the strong doubling on the word LIBERTY on the obverse.
Blues and purples dominate both sides of this near-gem example.
Relatively low pop in gem grades and higher. Housed in an older generation NGC holder.
As gemmy and fresh as the day it came out of the U.S. Mint. Fully red with dynamic luster throughout.
Intense luster.
Wonderful gem example of this first year of issue. Boldly lustrous orange-red example with a sharp strike. An exciting repunched date!
The 1872 2-cent business strike is the key to set and much tougher than the 1864 small motto in our experience. The present example has nice, even color and excellent detail.
The 1886 is one of the primary key dates in the V-Nickel set. The present coin has nice luster and an attractive light sheen of toning throughout.
Obverse target toning boasts rose, gold, green, and blue toning in a fascinating display. Better-date New Orleans mint half dime. Low mintage issue of just 560,000 coins struck.
PCGS #38777.Better variety issue for the capped bust design (large size). This variety is noted because the words STATESOFAMERICA are missing proper spacing and appear run together as a single word.
A lustrous AU example of this desirable and ideal type coin issue for the capped bust design (large size).
Desirable variety for the capped bust design (small size). Very scarce in high grades like this. Nice luster and color, with an easily discernable overdate.
Crisply struck and nice eye appeal. Popular New Orleans date.
The final year of stars obverse design without arrows surrounding the date, which would last until 1855. These are very difficult to locate, especially in better grades.
Rare, low mintage issue of just 8,000 business strikes. A lovely midgrade example with even wear and solid details considering its time in circulation.
Wonderfully original gem! Both sharply struck sides feature bold rainbow colors. An easy decision for CAC.
