Lot #262 - 1938 Proof Set in a Capital Plastics holder
Hammer: $975
Collector Lots-Proof Sets
A fine film that exudes a mild golden rod hue is lightly draped across each silver and nickel issue within this five-piece 1938 United States proof set. All five issues are securely housed in a Capital plastics case and shows ample signs of originality. The Lincoln cent is a lovely red and brown example that fits nicely into this set. This is how this set is meant to look (ck).

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.
