Lot	Photo	Description	Realized
Lot 1676		1832 Capped Bust Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded MS-64. A near gem coin that boasts deep gray toning over fiery sunset luster in the fields. Hints of blue around the edges, and with light mottling in the colors. Boldly struck for the type, with full stars on the obverse and only slight weakness on Liberty's highest curls. The eagle, too, is bold, with large lumpy feathers and even his craggy claws are sharp. About as nice as this type is ever found, and worthy of a strong bid. Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000.

Lot 1677		1839 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. AU-50 Semi Prooflike. The fields exhibit mirror reflectiveness, which is very appealing to the eye. As such, there are the usual faint lines from cleaning or circulation, its hard to tell the difference on a lightly circulated coin. The surfaces remain untoned at the present, and we note a sharp "fin" or wire rim around the upper obverse. Boldly struck on the obverse, the reverse with a bit of weakness on the left leg of the eagle, as usual for the date. Also prooflike on the reverse, this must have been an early strike from the dies, soon after the few proofs were coined. Estimated Value $400 - 450. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $805
Lot 1678		1844 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. AU-50. Light hairlines in the fields from circulation, and untoned. Sharply impressed by the dies. Estimated Value $100 - 125. View details	Realized $127
Lot 1679		1845 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. NGC graded MS-64. Boldly struck for the date, with full radial lines on each star, and bold feathers on the fluffy eagle. The colors are unusual in the toning, which ranges from mottled russet to aqua over the lustrous fields. One of 10 so graded by NGC, with just 2 coins graded higher. Apparently, this is one of the better known examples of the date, and worthy of a strong bid as such. Estimated Value $1,250 - 1,450. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 1680		1858 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. ANACS graded AU-58. Antique gold and blue toning on the obverse, more somber gray on the reverse. Typical strike, with some stars weak on the obverse, sharp at the centers. Some hairlines noted above the date. Estimated Value $110 - 130. View details	Realized $138
Lot 1681		1861 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. AU-55. Some hairlining doesn't detract all that much from the flashy satiny luster of this little beauty. Well struck. The last really large mintage of Quarters until 1875. Estimated Value $100 - 120. View details	Realized $115
Lot 1682		1863 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. Proof 63. Magnificent, perfectly blending iridescent toning, lightning in the obverse center. The reverse is mostly electric blue. Popular civil-war issue and only 460 proofs minted. Worth a premium for the gorgeous natural toning. Estimated Value $600 - 700. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $978
Lot 1683		1876-CC Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. Both grade Extremely Fine to About Uncirculated. Each coin is toned, with the 1876-CC exhibiting mottled toning on the reverse, more even on the obverse. Lot of 2 coins. Estimated Value $100 - 125. View details	Unsold
Lot 1684		1884 NGC GRADED PROOF 69 WONDER COIN. NGC graded Proof 69. An almost unheard of grade for any U.S. proof coin from the 19th century! Despite years of third party grading by PCGS and NGC, this is the only Proof 69 Seated Liberty Quarter of this date. Moreover, it is one of only 4 Proof 69s given to all dates of Seated Quarters by either NGC or PCGS. How could such a coin exist? The surfaces are as struck from the mint, aside from a delicate rose-blue tone at the edges, the centers remain frosty and white, the reverse a deeper tone of blue to deep russet. Naturally, the delicate reflective fields show no signs of contact, no signs of handling. As perfect a coin for the date as could possibly exist, with a well deserved grade awarded to the finest known of the date. This coin is currently in NGC holder #230916-005 and the coin can be identified by a hidden "S" shaped lint mark just left of Liberty's shield hidden on her rocky perch. A coin for the record books, once purchased it may not be seen again for decades to come. Estimated Value $30,000-UP. View details and enlarged photos	Unsold
Lot 1685		1884 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. Proof 63. Some scattered marks are noted in the obverse fields but these are well concealed by the russet toning deepening at the borders. Popular low mintage date. Estimated Value $400 - 500. View details	Unsold
Lot 1686		1885 Liberty Seated Quarter Dollar. NGC graded Proof 66. Deeply frosted on the devices, which remain blazing white in color, while the surrounding fields show gold to yellow toning over the delicate mirror fields. One of just 19 so graded by NGC, with 15 graded higher for the date. Low mintage of just 930 proofs struck, and only 13,600 business strikes made as the mints focused all their coining on Morgan dollars and gold coins. Estimated Value $2,000 - 2,200. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $2,760
Lot 1687		1897 Barber Quarter Dollar. PCGS graded Proof 65. Lightly toned on the devices and well struck. There is a small disturbance on Liberty's neck, and a tiny nick near her jaw.

Lot 1688		1900 Barber Quarter Dollar. NGC graded Proof 65. Toned with lovely rose hues at the center of the obverse, and mottled blue on Liberty's face and surrounding fields. The reverse is more balanced in the toning arena, with medium gold color around the periphery and more natural appearing overall. Examination with a strong glass will note the usual hairlines (seen on virtually all proof coins from the last century) and a couple of minute handling marks, hidden by the toning. Gem Barber quarters are always in demand, and with a mere 912 struck, few indeed survive in such exceptional grades. Bid accordingly. Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,400.
