Patterns-Patterns
Judd-238 R.5 and a popular Longacre creation for the half-dollar denomination, struck in copper with a reeded edge. A hundred percent of the obverse displays deep nut-brown patina while the central reverse retains a portion of flashy prooflike surface beneath powdery surface texture. Three or so lengthier abrasions on the cheek and a few far-flung nicks in the fields ascertain the grade.

Half Dimes-Liberty Seated
Clem Stevens Collection. A sensational proof type coin that deserves a "star" (it was likely certified before NGC ushered in the designation for superior eye-appeal), this Reconstruction Era gem earns the Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award. The obverse displays a phenomenally beautiful, fully circular pattern of rainbow toning that descends from the rim half way into the fields. The reverse survives with fully white mint brilliance. While the obverse also seems fully struck a hint of weakness shows on the reverse at upper left.

I have to admit, this one won’t be everyone’s cup of tea but you will have to admit that it’s pretty darn cool! The center has a precious orangey marquise coral cabochon. There is a freeform, bezel set fossilized ammonite stone and the piece is completed with a elongated cabochon identified as rutilated quartz. None of the stones have indications of polymers or dyes, Stone Group Laboratories report #240827R-SJ. This piece has a pin on the back and also opens so it can be added to chain. Dimensions 4" x 1.5", 26.2 dwt.
