[cucamongacoin]

1987 ASE gorgeous original album toned, couple small scratches, but still very choice, $SOLD

 

 

1878 S Trade Dollar, Choice AU58 Bright lemon yellow, blue, magenta, red, gold, some obverse hairlines. $550

 

 

This tougher Type one looks great for the grade. Highly lustrous and unquestionably original with deep tone in weathered bronze, blue, and silvery gold. While there is a reddish tint, the pics exaggerate this quality. The S mint in FH is much tougher than either the P or D, with 1/16th the availabilty compared to the P mint, and a little over half that of the D mint. Quite appealing and a real eye catcher. Excellent strike. $335 delivered.

 

 

1917 D SLQ TYPE I PCGS MS64, deeply toned in coppery red/gold, close to FH. More silvery and less red in hand, highly lustrous SOLD

 

 

This 1819/18 CBH is absolutely gorgeous in hand. I only wish my photography skills and setup were better. Grading VF35, and attributed as an O-101, the obverse glows with multiple electric shades of red, blue, yellow and green, surrounding the portrait like a halo. The reverse shows a crisp sapphire ring with golden rose centers. Aesthetically over the top, and technically a circulated Gem, with, perhaps, a light century old wipe. One of the prettiest Capped Bust Halves I've encountered. Much more appealing in hand, guaranteed to please and guaranteed to grade. $600

 

1901 O MORGAN, Beautiful two sided toner, grading MS62+, with some chatter on the cheek, and typical flat "O" mint strike at center. BUT, bathed in bright sapphire, seagreen, red and yellow, and really doing a Peakock (censored) strut on the reverse. Also shows doubling on the inside (left) of the "O", and on the lettering starting at "D" and up through the star, spread counterclockwise. I couldn't determine which VAM it might be, but interesting nonetheless. Great coin. $150

 

1885 P MORGAN MS65, just a tiny cut on the cheek ( just the short one, the long thin line is toning)away from 66. Beautiful. $SOLD
