Lot	Photo	Description	Realized
Lot 1602		1857-D $5 Liberty. Sharpness of EF-45. Some luster remains. We note a couple of scratches in the left obverse field and a mark or two on the reverse rims. A rare Dahlonega mint half eagle and easily worth our conservative estimate. Estimated Value $500 - 550. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,093
Lot 1603		1858-C $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-61. Light golden toning on both sides. 38,856 coins minted. One tiny nick over the eye; minor flattening of some lower dentils on the obverse; hairline in the right obverse field at stars 11 and 12. As with other half eagles in this period, the 1858-C is seldom found Mint State. The result is that the growing cadre of advanced collectors must compete energetically for the thin supply. Pop 5; 5 finer in 62 (PCGS # 8277) . Estimated Value $8,000 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1604		1858-D $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-61. Well struck with lovely golden toning. A small planchet defect above E in UNITED. The 1858-D has a lower mintage than the '57-D, though somewhat more available in middle grades. In comparison with other D-mint dates in the series, this is a very well made 1858-D. It is excellent definition at centers (a major plus), surfaces that are very smooth with no marks to catch your eye. The mintmark is medium size and nicely set below the olive branch, directly above the E in FIVE. (Many 1858-D half eagles were poorly prepared.) Higher grade examples of this date with good luster always command a premium bid! Only 15/362 struck. Pop 3; 4 in 62, 1 in 63, and 1 in 64 (PCGS # 8278) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 11,000.

Lot 1605		1858-D $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. NGC holder 1723666-002. Boldly struck and lustrous. Light yellow gold. Outstanding detail and as well struck over both sides with sharp detail noted at the centers and if not the borders. Attractive, brilliant gold color covers both sides as well. There are some light hairlines and softening in the luster accounting for the MS60 grade. It is unlikely that a more original example of this issue exists, however, and we highly respect the collector who ends up with it. The 1858-D is more available than the 1856-D and the 1857-D, especially in higher grades. There are an estimated 30-35 pieces known in AU grades, as well as fair number but not too many in Uncirculated. Pop 2; 9 finer; 4 in 61; 4 in 62; 1 in 65. (PCGS # 8278) . Estimated Value $8,000 - 9,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1606		1859-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Only 31,847 coins struck. A nice strike with a hint of light golden tone. A few faint hairlines in the fields struggle to gain your attention, but the bold detail on Liberty otherwise clean surfaces throughout give it the edge. Characteristic of 1859-C, grading must be done by the obverse side. The reverse on all of these was from a ramshackle die, possibly overused from earlier years, causing the impressions to be weak even on a coin (such as this) in full, obvious Mint condition. Taken as a whole, the choiceness of the fields and devices put this in the running for Condition Census rank. Pop 4; 8 finer, 6 in 61, 1 in 62, 1 in 63 (PCGS # 8281) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1607		1859-C $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-60. Only 31,847 struck. Untoned and well struck for this date with a few light scuff marks in the field near stars 5 and 6; the reverse has several areas of abrasion above the eagle and to the right of the right wing. 1859-C (and 1860-C for that matter) are generally graded by the obverse since these were struck by a weak reverse die. Pop 4; 8 finer, 6 in 61, 1 in 62, 1 in 63 (PCGS # 8281) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1608		1859-D $5 Liberty. Medium D. PCGS graded MS-61. Rich golden toning. It stands to reason that with just 10,366 pieces struck, the 1859-D deserves honors as a rare issue, being the second lowest mintage figure of any Dahlonega half eagle. This is a fairly scarce coin in all circulated grades. A few very nice examples are also accounted for including a superb PCGS MS64. The present coin is tied with five others in its grade. It shows much better detail than many, and gorgeous deep golden to golden orange color throughout. The obverse is very sharp except for the curl below the ear of Liberty and star 2, which is flat at its center. The reverse is very sharp and has virtually complete definition. As on all 1859-D half eagles, there is some beveling noted on the edges. One for a connoisseur's collection. Merest prudence dictates that a strong bid is advisable. 10,366 coins minted. Pop 5; 7 finer; 3 in 62; 3 in 63; 1 in 64. (PCGS # 8282) . Estimated Value $11,000 - 13,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1609		1860-C $5 Liberty. SEGS graded AU-58. Our grade is AU-53 for this scarce, late-issue half eagle from the mint at Charlotte, North Carolina. Typical for the date, this has a sharply made obverse paired with a softly struck reverse (grading on 1859-C and 1860-C half eagles is primarily done by the detail on the obverse). Only 14,813 pieces minted (PCGS # 8285) . Estimated Value $2,600 - 2,800. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1610		1862 $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62. Probably the finest known example! According to Garrett and Guth only 2 examples have been offered in the past 20 years! Satiny amber gold surfaces with lively cartwheel luster, faintly prooflike in areas, and attractive iridescent pale rose highlights. Sharply struck. In fact, remarkably so. A well-known rarity from the Philadelphia Mint; only 4,430 business strikes of the date were produced. Typically seen in Very Fine or Extremely Fine, that statement being repeated endlessly where Liberty half eagles of the 1860s and early 1870s are concerned. Even an About Uncirculated specimen would cause numismatic circles to cheer. The present Mint State 62 coin a "must have" for any serious buyer. As an aside, this present Mint State business strike coin is much rarer than a Proof of this date. PCGS number 10808139. Pop 1. Tied for finest at both NGC and PCGS. (PCGS # 8292) . Estimated Value $20,000 - 22,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $18,975
Lot 1611		1866-S $5 Liberty. No motto. NGC graded AU-58. Only 9,000 struck. Very rare date in high grade. Well struck and untoned with a few scattered light abrasions. None have been graded Mint State by either service. Boil it all down and you have an important date and design type, the 1866-S No Motto. A modest mintage by today's standards, but consistent with others of its day. Walter Breen called the date: "Prohibitively rare above VF," while David Akers noted: "No specimen called AU or Uncirculated has ever been offered at public auction. I have seen one choice AU piece." Fine or Very Fine is typical for the issue, with Extremely Fine rarely encountered. How rare is the date at AU-58? See the grading census that follows this description. Here is one of the well-liked rarities of the Liberty half eagle series, a coin with few peers, a marvel that will take a place of prominence in an advanced collection of U.S. half eagles. While the mints at Philadelphia and San Francisco each made 1866-dated half eagles with the IN GOD WE TRUST reverse, the San Francisco Mint is the only source of 1866-dated half eagles without the motto. It is believed, per Walter Breen's estimates that the San Francisco Mint's release of 1866-S With Motto half eagles was nearly four times as large as the press run for the No Motto half eagles of the date. Pop 7; none finer. (PCGS # 8300) . Estimated Value $12,000 - 14,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1612		1868 $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-55. Rich orange and golden toning on both sides. Low mintage of 5,700. Scarce and underrated date. Sharply struck. A few marks in the fields exist otherwise it should be graded 3 points higher. As is the case with many other P-mint dates in the 1860s, since the original business strike delivery of this issue was so low, we suspect that many 1868 half eagles left the presses with prooflike surface. Both sides of the present example are lightly abraded, as is suitable for the grade, with sharp detail on all the main elements in the design. The 1868 is a bit more of a challenge to find than either the 1866 or 1867. That said, most examples grade either Very Fine or Extremely Fine. An important rarity for the collector of 19th century gold, and a coin any specialist will accept as a sound representative of the grade. Pop 12; 1 in 58, 1 in 62 (PCGS # 8315) .

Lot 1613		1871-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-58. NGC holder 394886-008. Plenty of luster present. Light yellow gold. A landmark offering of a very rare coin. Ex Heritage 9/2003:7982. Winter 1-B. The earlier sale describes this handsome piece accordingly: "Although its mintage of 20,770 pieces is comparatively high for a Carson City Half Eagle, the '71-CC is a difficult issue in all grades and a significant condition rarity, with pieces grading as high as XF representing an extremely desirable grade for the issue. In the Akers' book on Half Eagles and in the Winter/Cutler reference on Carson City gold coins, just two Mint State 1871-CC fives are mentioned by the authors, the best known being the Akers' plate coin, a veteran of two apostrophe sales (Auction '79 and Auction '80). This Condition Census representative is a bright yellow-gold with adequate sharpness on the central details. A pair of tiny round marks above the top arrow point could serve as a pedigree marker in the future." Pop 4; 2 finer; 1 in 61; 1 in 63. (PCGS # 8323) . Estimated Value $20,000 - 22,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1614		1871-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-53. A very rare "CC" mint date. Lightly toned with mint lustre evident. Very nice for the grade. 1871-CC checks in as a significant rarity among the $5 issues produced at the Carson City Mint. Relatively few were made (in this instance 20,770), and nearly all seem to have circulated. There was no interest on the part of numismatists at the time. The present piece is quite exceptional. That said, the coin is considerably rarer than even this mintage indicates; this date is usually found in well-worn Fine to Very Fine grades, often damaged. It seems that coins struck in the 1870s circulated more extensively in the Western part of the county than others of later decades or those made at the Philadelphia Mint for circulation on the East Coast. The 1871-CC can be spoken of as a formidable rarity at the About Uncirculated level, and only a few connoisseurs will ever own a specimen. Pop 2; 7 in 55, 3 in 58, 1 in 61, 1 in 62 (PCGS # 8323) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $9,775
Lot 1615		1872-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-50. Only 16,980 struck. Mostly untoned with nice even wear for the grade. The placement of the CC mintmark is low in the field on these, about mid-way between the denomination and the arrow feather above. Lustrous highlights. The fields are somewhat choicer than average for an 1870s decade half eagle from the Carson Mint; most of the luster glistens in the protected areas. Carson City Mint were used extensively in regional circulation, with the result that all are rare today and that at the AU level they are formidable rarities. Douglas Winter and Lawrence Cutler called this date, "An issue that is almost never seen in high grade," giving the date a High Rarity-7 rating in AU. David Akers noted: "I have never seen an 1872-CC that graded better than choice EF." Although a fair number have surfaced since Akers' book was published, some truth still holds in those words. Among the choicer examples of the date currently known, and a numismatic trophy in any Half Eagle collection. Pop 5; 5 in 53, 5 in 55, 2 in 58. No mint state examples graded by either NGC or PCGS (PCGS # 8326) . Estimated Value $13,000 - 14,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1616		1874-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-55. PCGS holder 22111141. Warm golden-sunset surfaces. The 1874-CC has the highest mintage (still an anemic 21,198 pieces) and is one of the more readily available Carson City half eagles of the decade. Yet just the same, the small population of survivors are almost all heavily marked; a legitimate AU55 like this can be rightly categorized as extremely scarce. This example displays rich reddish-orange patina and show much original mint luster. The peripheral striking details are sharp, but there is a touch of softness at the center of the reverse (only a touch); the mintmark is clear and bold. No spots or discoloration. A very choice example. A lovely high grade coin. Pop 9; 7 finer; 5 in 58; 2 in 62. (PCGS # 8334) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1617		1874-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-53. Mostly untoned. Normal rough surfaces for the grade but with ample luster remaining in and around the main devices. Only 21,198 struck. From being merely an ordinary $5 gold piece, a flip of the coin will show that this piece has the desirable CC mintmark for Carson City, Nevada, far rarer than the majority of pieces struck at the Philadelphia Mint in this decade (PCGS # 8334) .

Lot 1618		1876-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-61. Untoned, well struck and semi reflective surfaces. Winter 1-A. From the Ashland City sale description: "The 1876-CC has the lowest mintage of any Carson City Half Eagle. Only 6,887 pieces were produced with an estimated 80-90 coins extant today in all grades. High grade pieces are especially elusive and this is easily a Condition Census example. The surfaces on this piece are certainly atypical for the issue. Both sides are bright and yellow-gold in color with shimmering prooflike fields. Sharply struck on each side, the coin is exceptionally clean for the grade. This is the finest '76-CC we can remember having ever handled" -- and a coin definitely deserving of your attention. Among the finest graded. Pop 1; 1 in 64; 1 in 65; 1 in 66; no others in Unc. Estimated Value $35,000 - 40,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $32,488
Lot 1619		1877-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded AU-55. A decent strike exhibiting subdue honey color golden surfaces Very rare in such high grade. Sharply defined on the obverse with the faint weakness on the eagle's neck feathers, the surfaces are medium orange-gold with significant portions of mint luster still surrounding the devices. A small rim bruise over M of AMERICA on the reverse. This is one of the finer pieces known and appears to be surpassed by few other pieces in the Condition Census. The bidding that follows the appearance of this half eagle on the auction block will afford some slight clue to the secret of CC-mint gold coins when it rises above what everyone supposes is the "normal" market price. Bidding on it will certainly suggest singleness of purpose, which is one of the essentials of success to acquiring a rare date $5 gold piece. Pop 13; 5 finer in 58. (PCGS # 8343) . Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $11,213
Lot 1620		1877-S $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-55. Well struck and lightly toned with scattered light field and surface marks. A scarce specimen with original patina over still-lustrous surfaces. Collectors, discussing the relative ease or difficulty of acquiring half eagles minted in the 1870s, consider the '77-S a rarity in all grades, with Very Fine or an occasional Extremely Fine about the best that is usually offered. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a handsome AU55 specimen, one of the better 1877-S half eagles extant (with apparently only one piece graded Mint State by PCGS). Certainly an opportunity the collector won't want to miss. Pop 6; 1 finer in 64. Only 26,700 struck (PCGS # 8344) . Estimated Value $1,400 - 1,600. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,415
Lot 1621		1879-S $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-63. Well struck and lustrous exhibiting full natural mint bloom colors. Choice surfaces that are thoroughly frosted with keen-edged, gold luster streaking outward from the centers. Liberty's profile is especially clean and frosty. Taking stock of another key aspect of the grade, this piece has sharp-edged devices throughout, including stars, rather than a soft, mushy strike as many Eagles from the 1870s. Pop 19; 18 in 64, 1 in 65 (PCGS # 8350) . Estimated Value $2,200 - 2,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,185
Lot 1622		1882-CC $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-62. Tied for finest certified, NGC. A bold example featuring nice light even toning. Very rare date in mint state. NGC holder 1519330-002. Well struck, brilliant, and highly lustrous. A splendid specimen of the 1882-CC, a Carson City half eagle that, when seen, is typically below the Mint State level, often several steps below. The present piece has outstanding surfaces and color here, with no unusual marks. It is quite choice overall, particularly in the context of Carson City coinage, where most extant gold coins of smaller denominations show extensive surface abrasions. The present piece is a pure "find" for the advanced collector. Only a single die pair has been observed for the 1882-CC. On the obverse a die scratch is seen through IB (LIBERTY), interrupted, then from the top of R down to the right through TY. On the reverse, on high-grade specimens as this, there are some die finish striae within the vertical shield stripes. At one time the dies lightly clashed, and minor evidence of this can be seen near the eagle. Pop 6; none finer at either service. (PCGS # 8359) . Estimated Value $14,000 - 16,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $14,375
Lot 1623		1884-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded AU-58. Well struck, lustrous and light golden in color. The thin raised line on Liberty's cheek from the ear to below the eye is a characteristic of this particular die. A brilliant, still lustrous, and well preserved high-quality About Uncirculated. Struck with controlled precision throughout so that all stars, hair curls, and eagle elements show their finest detail. A scarce CC-mint date. Pop 10; 2 finer; 1 in 61; 1 in 62. (PCGS # 8365) .

Lot 1624		1890-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62. Lightly toned with semi reflective surfaces. Mint State '90-CC half eagles are the second most plentiful issue of the denomination from the historic Carson City mint, behind the readily obtainable 1891-CC. Just the same, nearly all Mint State examples fall in the MS 60 and MS 64 grade levels, perhaps numbering 300 coins in all. The presently offered MS62 is lustrous and well struck. Pop 54; 52 finer, 22 in 63, 28 in 64, 1 in 65, 1 in 66 (PCGS # 8376) . Estimated Value $2,400 - 2,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,645
Lot 1625		1891-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-62. A nice strike and delicately toned. This is the most affordable CC-mint half eagle in Uncirculated grade (PCGS # 8378) . Estimated Value $1,400 - 1,500. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,495
Lot 1626		1892 $5 Liberty. NGC graded Proof 65 Cameo. Encased in NGC holder 1938632-002. Only 92 proofs issued. A lovely untoned gem. Clearly more than fifty-percent of the original mintage of Proof Half Eagles struck this year remain for modern-day collectors. Compared to others, this handsome gem with its cameo qualities and full glowing surfaces is one of the few almost unimpaired pieces we have had the pleasure to offer. Both sides emphasize the brilliant golden color and under magnification reveal splendid two tone cameo contrast from the frosted devices. A distinguished looking coin for the connoisseur of rare U.S. Proof gold. The next owner, when he tries to describe this piece to his friends and associates will, no doubt, be left speechless by its beauty and overwhelming charm. Pop 2; 1 in 66 Star (PCGS # 88487) .

Lot 1627		1892-CC $5 Liberty. PCGS graded MS-63. Nice golden toning. Large CC mintmark, first C mainly over left upright of V, second C lower than first C, and chiefly over upright of E. This is a lovely, healthy-glowing '92-CC, whose full-color obverse and reverse being naturally toned, beams with frosty luster. There is one small identifying mark below the hair bun.

Lot 1630		1895 $5 Liberty. NGC graded MS-65. Lovely orange and golden toning. The fully brilliant Gem we now hand over bidders beats (from a technical angle) practically all of the P-mint half eagles of this grade that have passed through the various grading services. This is a strongly struck Liberty five, with excellent detail to all the important high points of Liberty: her hair, hair bun, coronet, and stars. Where sometimes you'll see the add on "with the possible exception of these regions of the eagle (standard for the issue)", we are thrilled to say that no such add on is required to describe the bold eagle.

Lot 1636		1909 $5 Indian. PCGS graded MS-64 PQ. Well struck and quite choice for the grade. The frosty mint luster is enhanced by the lovely golden-orange overtones. These are not too readily available in grades above MS63, other than for the hoarded 1909 Denver Mint issue. With the excellent "eye appeal" a definite premium coin (PCGS # 8513) .

Lot 1639		1911-D $5 Indian. PCGS graded MS-63 PQ. Well struck with rich golden-orange mint luster. A very scarce date that is seldom seen in Choice Uncirculated condition. Collectors rarely will argue the point that the 1911-D (72,500 pieces made) is the rarest issue in the Indian half eagle date run after the 1909-O (34,200 minted). From the point of view of high grade, some might even argue that the '11-D outranks the '09-O. Be that as it may, this is definitely an atypical Mint State 1911-D. It is well defined, a feature that the present example manifests in its sharp feathers and eagle wing. Both sides are nicely toned, as already mentioned, with quality luster predominant for the MS63 grade if not even finer quality. There are a few scattered abrasions, but the surfaces are relatively clean for this quality. Among the finest 1911-D half eagles bidders will enjoy bidding on this year.

Lot 1641		1913-S $5 Indian. PCGS graded MS-63. Frosty and untoned. This original colored, spot-free example displays beams of golden metallic detail in virtually all areas including the Indian's portrait. There is a faint hairline in the field opposite the Indian's face. The mint mark is weak but visable. A scarce date in this grade. Only 408,000 minted.
