Half Cents


Cents

*NEW* 1857 Flying Eagle Cent PCGS MS64 $1250
MS64 Flying Eagle Cents are not rare. I don't know that I'd even call them scarce. Yet, despite their availability, I almost always find something that bothers me enough to discourage me from buying them. This one worked for me, however, due to its clean surfaces and original appearance.

*NEW* 1894 Indian Cent NGC PR67BN $1450
According to their Census Report, this is the only PR67BN that NGC has recognized, though they have also graded a single PR67RB. I must say, that was a nice surprise when I looked it up and saw that. And the coin, itself, is an even nicer surprise, once you tilt and rotate it under a decent light source. The color is smooth and enticing, the obverse being very attractive, and the reverse, gorgeous. Please pardon the blurry reverse image.

*NEW* 1911 Lincoln Cent PCGS PR64RB $1325
With just a slight tilt under a light, this coin shows itself to be brighter and more "RD" in hue, than portrayed in the images. Additionally, the minor spots are barely noticeable without magnification. A coin which looks far better in hand.

*NEW* 1914 Lincoln Cent PCGS PR65RB $1625
Another Matte Proof Lincoln Cent with more vibrancy and original mint-red color than can be seen in the images. The surfaces are extremely clean and the obverse is nearly fully "RD". A highly pleasing example.


Two Cent Pieces


Three Cent Pieces

*NEW* 1862 Three Cent Silver PCGS/CAC MS65 $925
Please note that this coin is more lustrous, flashier and much smaller than it appears in the images. A fairly easily obtainable type coin at this grade level, but with an uncommonly appealing appearance.

*NEW* 1883 Three Cent Nickel PCGS PR66 $750
Delightfully toned in pastel rainbow hues. The toning is more vivid and impressive in person.


Nickels

*NEW* 1913-D Buffalo Nickel PCGS MS65 $290
Delicately toned in an enticing combination of ice-blue and grape colors, with an area of pink on the reverse.

*NEW* 1915 Buffalo Nickel PCGS PR66 $2475
This one looks very similar to how it shows in the accompanying images. It is also more colorful and flashier than many Matte Proof Nickels. A beauty.

1926-S Buffalo Nickel PCGS/CAC AU58 $4975
Oh so close to uncirculated, and oh so far ahead of most others of this grade, in terms of desirability and eye-appeal. Excellent luster combines with delightful toning to make for an attention-grabbing (and holding) appearance. Typical strike for this issue. This (almost) makes me want to try to assemble a matched, high grade AU set. I included "almost", because I already know it would be virtually impossible and far too frustrating of an exercise.


Half Dimes

*NEW* 1833 Capped Bust NGC MS65 $2100
Tilt this little coin just slightly and the color is much closer to a delicate silver than it appears in the images.The luster shows up much better, as well, and the surfaces are without distracting marks. CAC declined to award a sticker to this coin.

*NEW* 1838 No Drapery Seated Liberty Half Dime PCGS MS63 $535
Colorful, medium depth patina adds to the desirability of this enchanting, problem-free example.

*NEW* 1867 Legend Obverse Seated Liberty Half Dime NGC PR66* $2450
The first of two wonderful looking PR66 representatives of this type and grade, this one was awarded a star by NGC for its exceptional eye-appeal. Both sides are vividly toned and the devices exhibit some light cameo contrast, but not enough to warrant the "Cameo" designation.From an original mintage of just 625 pieces.

*NEW* 1868 legend Obverse Seated Liberty Half Dime NGC/CAC PR66 $2275
Gorgeously toned on both sides, with deeply reflective surfaces. Highly original looking and with excellent eye-appeal. From an original mintage of only 600 pieces.


Dimes

*NEW* 1857 Stars Obverse Seated Liberty Dime NGC MS64 $900
Fairly deeply toned with a typical strike for this date. Adding to its desirability is its highly original looking patina and mark-free surfaces. Please note, that while the obverse color is accurately represented in the image, the reverse is not as colorful as the auto-color correction feature makes it appear. Housed in an older NGC "fatty" holder.


Twenty Cent Pieces


Quarters

*NEW* 1902 Barber Quarter PCGS PR63 $875
Color-free, with some obvious cameo contrast on both sides. Areas of faint obverse haze do not diminish the depth or dazzling effect of the deeply reflective surfaces. This coin appears to have barely missed a PR64 grade and barely missed a "Cameo" designation, as well. It certainly didn't get the benefit of the doubt in either regard.

*NEW* 1924-D Standing Liberty Quarter PCGS/CAC MS66 $700
For whatever reason, I don't like the oft-used expression "dripping with mint luster", so I wont use it here. But I will say that this coin is quite lustrous and is highlighted by areas of violet patina on both sides. This is what an MS66 Standing Liberty Quarter is supposed to look like. Only 9 non-FH examples have been graded higher by PCGS.


Half Dollars

*NEW* 1833 Capped Bust Half Dollar PCGS XF45 $230
When was the last time you saw me list two XF45 Capped Bust Half Dollars for sale? My guess is "never". I just happened to have had the opportunity to purchase two that I liked. I think that this series is among the most fun and interesting in all of U.S. coinage.

*NEW* 1834 Capped Bust Half dollar NGC XF45 $230
A pleasing representative with mark-free surfaces, and a lot of meat to its bones for an XF45.

*NEW* 1944-D walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS65 $190
Nicely toned on both obverse and reverse. And to me, at least, much preferable to a generic looking color-free one.

*NEW* 1946-S Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS66 $360
Colorfully toned on both sides, with the obverse being the one which will catch (and hold) the eyes of most viewers.

*NEW* 1947 Walking Liberty Half Dollar NGC MS66 $350
Very delicate, pleasing pastel hues highlight the wonderfully lustrous surfaces. This one should be seen in hand.


Dollars

1881-S Morgan Dollar NGC MS66 $285
Highly lustrous with semi-prooflike surfaces, an exceptionally clean cheek on Ms. Liberty and strongly enticing obverse color.

*NEW* 1898 Morgan Dollar PCGS/CAC PR64 $3975
When I acquired this coin, I thought it looked familiar. Subsequently, I discovered that I had owned it previously in an NGC holder. I ended up paying roughly 8% more for it in its current PCGS holder. It is deeply mirrored, as well as richly and attractively toned. Its originality and beauty are readily apparent.


Silver Commemoratives

Connecticut PCGS/CAC MS65 $500
Evenly toned on each side (a bit more subtly than in my images), with no distractions worth of mention. This is not a rare issue with color of this type, but it is by no means common, either.

*NEW* Elgin PCGS MS67 $975
Pleasing violet color is evenly distributed over the obverse, while the reverse displays areas, but less of the same.

*NEW* Hawaiian NGC MS65 $4975
A tough classic silver commemorative issue, which was consigned by a highly discriminating collector who is allowing me to offer a number of other fine coins in this offering. It is slightly lighter, brighter and more colorful in hand, as is often the case with images.

*NEW* Hudson NGC MS65 $1425
Pale silver and gold in hue, with no major marks on either side. Typical strike for this issue, which lacks the details of many other issues within the series.

Maryland PCGS/CAC MS66 $600
Another silver commemorative which isn't easy to locate with pleasing color - I really like the way this one looks, and remember the days when MS66 Maryland's used to cost a LOT more money..

*NEW* Spanish Trail PCGS/CAC MS65 $1850
Toned in a delicate blend of gold and violet hues, with uncommonly clean surfaces. A reverse rim flaw, as made, can be seen under the "9" in the date. I believe that this coin otherwise deserves an MS66 grade. Housed in an older green label PCGS holder.

*NEW* Vancouver NGC MS65 $875
This Vancouver is well represented by my images, with the exception of the reverse periphery, which appears lighter and prettier up close and personal.

*NEW* 1952-D Washington Carver PCGS MS65 $155
Click on the image link below and you will know what this coin looks like, far better and more easily than by reading any additional boring description from me.

*NEW* Wisconsin PCGS/CAC MS67 $765
Silky smooth surfaces are complimented by attractive light toning. It is more lustrous and eye-appealing in person. Housed in an older, green label PCGS holder.

*NEW* York NGC MS67 $545
This York appears to exhibit a tab toned obverse, the colors of which are more desirable than seen in my images. These sure seem reasonably priced at today's levels, especially when they possess some personality and eye-appeal, as this one does. Images: http://markfeldcoins.com/client/commemyorkngc67last


Gold

*NEW* Sesqui $2.50 NGC F12 $325
This is, by far, the lowest grade gold commemorative I have ever handled. When I first saw it, I thought to myself how clean, problem-free and overall, pleasing it looked. Oh, and in case you're wondering, I haven't changed my mind since then. For those of you who care - and I know that there must be some of you out there - NGC has only graded this one Fine and one example lower, a Good. For its part, PCGS has only graded one lower (amazingly, a Fair 2) according to their Population Report.

*NEW* 1906 Liberty $2.50 PCGS/CAC MS66 $2775
Sharply struck with good color, lustrous surfaces and a very nice overall appearance.

1911 Indian $5 PCGS PR67 $79,500
I own this coin as equal partners with Pinnacle Rarities, so if you have any questions about it, please feel free to contact me or them. Following is the description which appears on their website at www.pinnacle-rarities.com

Between 1908 and 1915 the Mint in Philadelphia began experimenting with different types of finish for proof coins of the various denominations, including cents and nickels. The Indian half eagles, along with quarter eagles, eagles, and double eagles of the same period were struck in a matte or sandblast finish. The surfaces have a grainy appearance with thousands of tiny gold facets visible under magnification. Tied for finest graded by PCGS with only 4 other coins, this example is flawless. A rare opportunity to buy a perfect representation of this elusive issue.
