1845 Half Dime-Richmond Collection |
NGC PF65 | Numismatic experts estimate that only 25 of these proof examples were minted for use in Proof Sets of the year. John Jay Pitmman never acquired an 1845 Proof Half Dime for his collection despite years of searching. Pop is 2 with 1 graded higher. From the Richmond Collection and priced slightly above the Trends of $30,000. Keep in mind that a Bowers and Merena auction brought $27,500 for a comparable coin in March of 1998. A richly toned coin with an overlay of turquoise. |

1831 $.10 Bust Dime in Proof |
PCGS PF64 | JR-2. Rarity 7. What do the Eliasberg, Bareford, Hawn and Garrett collections all have in common besides being great numismatic ensembles?-None of them contained an 1831 Proof Bust Dime! While considered to be the most plentiful of a very scarce series, the 1831 is rarely seen in any auction and not since 1999 in a Proof 64 holder. Total Proof production was only 20 for the date yet between NGC and PCGS there is a count of 26 as being graded. Of course, resubmission and variety information is not available on each coin to actually determine the correct population, but there is documented guesstimation by professionals that fewer than 10 examples are believed to exist. According to the book "Early United States Dimes 1796-1837" published in 1984 by the John Reich Collectors Society, there are 6 known die marriages for the 1831 dime, but only 2 are known to have been used to produce the Proof mintage. Without being too diagnostically detailed, a brief explanation concerning the reverse design change that was undertaken in 1831 and how it affects this coin should be given. Basically, the design was reduced from three pale gules on the reverse shield, to two. In simpler terms, a gule is the vertical stripe on the shield and a pale is an individual line within a gule. Our coin is a blast white example of the three gule variety and carries a rarity factor of seven. Spectacular! Price on Request. |

1932-D $.25 Washington Quarter |
PCGS MS65 | The Washington Quarter was created to commemorate in 1932 the bicentennial of the birth of George Washington. A national contest was initiated with 98 entrants submitting 100 designs. Designs ranged in quality from amateurish to good, the exception being an outstanding work submitted by Laura Gardin Fischer designer of the Oregon Trail Memorial. Unanimously, the Commission chose Ms. Fraser's design but Treasury Secretary Andrew Mellon strongly opposed Ms. Fraser's work. Ultimately, Secretary Mellon, known for his stubbornness and chauvinism, chose a boring and bland design by John Flanagan. The true key date in the series, the 1932-D, is scarce at this level with only one graded higher! Priced well below the Trends indicator of $28,000. this coin is considered a "white" specimen and extremely eye appealing. |

1797 Half Dollar Bust |
ANACS VF30 Details -Tooled-Cleaned | This coin has a pleasing look, but has been professionally tooled in the hairline to bring out more detail. An extremely rare coin in any case, and well worth the money. A two-year design type, with a combined 1796 and 1797 mintage figure of 3,918, it is one of the most coveted of all U.S. coins by numismatists and collectors. It is no wonder as there are less than 300 specimens estimated to have survived leaving many type collections with an empty space! |
