Lot #843 - 1834 NGC MS-64
Hammer: $1,050
Half Dimes-Capped Bust
LM-2 shows nice repunching at "OF" on the reverse and in the present die-state, a chip entirely occupies the upper loop of the second "S" in STATES. Frequently chosen for type purposes due to availability, the added allure for some collectors of sheer white brilliance makes this a shoo-in at a reasonable price level as well. Gleaming aluminum-white shimmers from the surface joining a terrific strike, with the grade plainly determined by a handful of brief but rather sharp abrasions on the bust.

Lot #843 - 1841 CACG PR-66RB TOP POP
Hammer: $20,000
Large Cents-Braided Hair
Newcomb-1, R.5 as a proof-only die-marriage. With a total population estimated around fifty pieces, the 1841 cent provides one of the very few opportunities there are for obtaining an early proof copper for "a reasonable sum" of money. An incredible PR-65 RD example was certified by NGC perhaps 20 years ago, while this red-brown example scores an extra point in grade, but offers somewhat muted copper-red color with velvety greyish-brown overtones. The cataloger could not quickly identify a recent sale of this same coin, but pedigree markers might include a faint, linear abrasion between the eleventh and twelfth stars, as well as a small carbon dot clinging to the top-left of the upper loop of "8" in the date. Somehow, the CAC graders permitted two greyish crumbles to adhere to the obverse but overall, the coin offers splendid quality for the early proof collector.
