Lot 770		1909-S. VDB. PCGS graded MS-65 Red CAC Approved. A beautiful light Mint Red example of this popular Key Date. In an OGH. A dazzling full red gem with remarkable sharpness for the date. Extremely desirable this nice and tied with a fair number but not too many in its grade classification; numerical grade 65 in the full red category is where 1909-S V.D.B. really shines.

Lot 782		1913. PCGS graded Proof 64 Red & Brown. Some flyspecks. Only 2,983 Proofs struck. Matte Proofs were struck in 1909-16. The types of coin designs in this period (Lincoln cent, Buffalo nickel, Mercury dime, etc.) did not permit the making of bright finish or brilliant Proof specimens. It seems that the face of the die touches almost every part of the planchet on the Victor D. Brenner cents, dulling the surface of even a polished blank. Proof coins of the series therefore were issued with a matte or sandblast finish. It was not until the 1930s that the mint developed a technique (still challenging) of creating polished mirror Proofs. A rare opportunity to acquire a choice Red and Brown Proof of 1913. Pop 123; 86 finer (PCGS # 3316) . Estimated Value $400 - 450. Ex: Garrett Collection. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $776
Lot 783		1913. PCGS graded Proof 63 Red & Brown. CAC Approved. Only 2,983 struck. About 50% mint red still intact (PCGS # 3316) . Estimated Value $325 - 350. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $552
Lot 784		1913-S. PCGS graded MS-64 Red & Brown. CAC Approved. Plenty of mint red still present. Pop 165; 28 finer in 65 (PCGS # 2466) . Estimated Value $400 - 450. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $604
Lot 785		1914. PCGS graded Proof 64 Red & Brown. CAC Approved. Well struck with mint red over faded brown about equal. Only 1,365 struck. Pop 80; 82 finer (PCGS # 3319) . Estimated Value $625 - 650. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $805
Lot 786		1914-D. NGC graded MS-65 Red. Well struck with lots of Mint Red color starting to tone down. In an older holder. Little discussion is needed for this famous coin since the 1914-D is the key regular issue in the Lincoln Cent series. While fewer '09-S VDB Cents may have been produced, far fewer '14-D Cents were saved at the time of issue. Collectors should bear this in mind. The 1914-D is also an issue in which is unusual to find with glowing red surfaces. This piece has lovely soft mint luster and is nearly flawless. Close inspection with a loupe reveals a couple of tiny marks on each side, with two on Lincoln�s beard being the most noteworthy but scarcely deserving your attention. There are no spots to distract the viewer, indeed nothing untoward even noticeable to the unaided eye. Fully struck also. Pop 19; 5 in 66 RD. Estimated Value $10,000 - 12,000. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $11,500
Lot 787		1914-D. PCGS graded MS-62 Red & Brown. CAC Approved. Well struck with streaks of mottled toning on the reverse. Immediately noticeable here is the sharp strike on Lincoln's portrait, with hair curls complete. Mintage was low, but few collectors were aware of it at the time, and so most entered circulation. Mint States are elusive at all levels (PCGS # 2472) . Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,400. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,588
Lot 788		1914-S. ICG graded MS-65 Red. Our grade is MS-64+ Red. Although sometimes lost in the mist of its more famous '14-D cousin, the 1914-S is, all the same, a rarity in high grade. This is even more so the case when combined with original Mint Red color throughout, as indicated here. Further testament to its superior preservation, the sharp devices on either side. Razor-sharp, in fact including the kernels in the wheat ears. Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,200. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 789		1915-D. PCGS graded MS-64 Red & Brown. A nice full strike with lots of Mint Red present (PCGS # 2481) . Estimated Value $125 - 150. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $207
Lot 790		1917-D. PCGS graded MS-63 Brown. Nice bold strike with even bluish-brown toning (PCGS # 2498) . Estimated Value $100 - 110. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $150
Lot 791		1922. No D. Strong Reverse. NGC graded AU-58 Brown. Chocolate brown surfaces with an excellent strike and full reverse. Only a tinge of light friction keeps this piece from mint state status. Choice smooth surfaces on both sides without the usual little problems like marks or carbon: exactly what the doctor ordered, and on display here! All around a pleasing coin worthy of the specialist's consideration. Pop 24; 28 finer, 9 in 61, 10 in 62, 8 in 63, 1 in 64 (PCGS # 3287) . Estimated Value $6,000 - 6,500. View details Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 792		1923-S. NGC graded MS-63 Brown. Some mint red is visible. Pop 23; 2 finer in 65. Estimated Value $250 - 300. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $483
Lot 793		1924-D. NGC Unc Details, altered color. In our opinion we like this coin and our grade is MS-64 Red. Estimated Value $250 - 350. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $690
Lot 794		1925-D. PCGS graded MS-64 Red & Brown. Plenty of Mint Red present; sharper than average on the obverse, with typical detail on the reverse (PCGS # 2562) . Estimated Value $175 - 200. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $230
Lot 795		1940. PCGS graded Proof 66 Red. Full Mint Red gem. In an OGH. Pop 211; 10 finer (PCGS # 3347) . Estimated Value $190 - 200. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $207
Lot 796		1955. Doubled die obverse. PCGS graded MS-63 Red & Brown. A very pleasing example for this popular 20th century variety. Mostly vibrant red with delicate brown surfaces intermingled; no dark undertones, certainly no spots. Best of all, the fields and devices are exceedingly choice for the modest 63 designation, choiceness that merits special notice (PCGS # 2826) . Estimated Value $2,800 - 3,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $3,450
Lot 797		1955. Doubled die obverse. NGC Unc Details, improperly cleaned. Clear, strong doubled features on the obverse, most noticeable in the legends and date numerals, and if you look closely, Lincoln's bow tie, lips and coat lapel are noticeably doubled as well. A modern-day Classic. Estimated Value $1,500 - 1,550. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,725
Lot 798		1910-1979-S A near complete set of Lincoln Cents. Lacking a few dates but does include a 1936 in Proof and a 1972 Double Die in AU. The balance of the coins grade mostly Fine to Proof.
