A COIN AUCTION ON

NOVEMBER 23, 1976

Public Thanksgiving and Praise

Gratefully acknowledging the manifold blessings of the God of Nature and ( of Grace, I do hereby, with the advice of the Executive Council, appoint

I

Thursday, the Twenty-Sixth Day of November Next, <

AS A DAY OF PUBLIC THANKSGIVING AND PEAISE.

And I call upon the people of this State to assemble on that day in their sanctuaries and homes, to recount the mercies and celebrate the praises of our Supreme Benefactor.

Let the memory of sorrow soften our hearts toward all who suffer, and the enjoyment of prosperity lead us to do good unto all as God has given us means and opportunity ; and let us ever yield to Him that humble obedience which is our reasonable duty and highest thanksgiving.

Given at the Council Chamber this twenty-second day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-eight, and of the Independence of the United States of America the ninety-third.

NOVEMBER 23rd, 1976 — 7:00 P-M.

(Estimate)

preceeding, numerous field abrasions, hairlines, scratches, etc. (1,500.00)

foregoing, field abrasions, scartches, etc. Rare, somewhat mishandled. (2,400.00)

scratch or two, a small dig at the back of the neck, etc. (1,400.00)

1899 (GH176) 150 struck in PROOF, this quite similar to all the rest here

tonight-usual mishandling marks. (1,400.00)

with some abrasions, field marks, hairline scratches, etc. (1,450.00)

(Estimate)

56 1885 (GT42) 109 struck in PROOF. Ours has some field flaws, light

abrasions, several small scratches in right obverse fields, and elsewhere but on the whole a nice appearing rare coin. (4,500.00)

U.S. $10, $20, & $50 GOLD COINS

US $10 1799, large stars (G8). Extra fine, some field scratches, edges just a li-tle rough in a few spots, but hardly visible to the naked eye. Nowhere nearly as bad as it sounds, a lovely coin. (3,000.00)

58 $10 1907 Liberty head (GE197) only 74 struck in PROOF, and this one is a

beauty. Some inconsistances' are noted in the fields, a very few light hairlines, other extremely minor flaws on the fields. Hard to find one much better than this, really nice. (5,000.00)

59 $20 1900 (GD137) 124 struck in PROOF. This piece shows considerable

evidence of mishandling, rubs in the field, a couple of light digs and hairline scratches, etc. not as bad as description makes it seem. (4,000.00)

60 $20 1902 (GD141) 1 14 struck in PROOF. This bright and shiny coin shows

numerous but very light hairlines virtually invisible without using a

glass. Very attractive, easily worth. (7,500.00)

61 $20 1903 (GD143) struck in PROOF 158. Just about as above, but not quite

as fresh looking, its flaws are a bit more noticable, particularly a light rub

in the right obverse field. (7,000.00)

63 US $50 gold, August Humbert 1851, 880 fine, (PG130). A lovely scarce coin VF-EF, relatively free of edge damage and hard to come by thus an interesting and rare relic of pioneer days. (7,500.00)

1858 (S46) Issued only in PROOF (80 pieces). This current offering is rather nicer than the usual offered, bright and without any glaring flaws. True, there are a few hairlines and a dimpled interruption of the proof surface below the final star, quite tiny. This is a coin to grace any collection. (4,000.00)

EARLY US PROOF SETS

(Estimate)

247 1870, 10 pieces (lc, 2c, 3c S, 3c N, % dime, nickel, 10c, 25c, 50c, $1.00)

The Cent is darkly mottled with toning, a few spots. The 2c, 3c N, 3c S, nickel, are nicely toned, while the rest are bright and shiny. The 25c,

50c and dollar all have minimal hairlines but the smaller silver coins are

lovely. Altogether, a very nice set in custom lucite holder. (4,600.00)

248 1 875 Proof Set. 8 pieces from Cent to Trade dollar including the 20c piece.

The Cent is liberally toned, as is the 3c N and the nickel. Some minimal hairlining is noted on all the silver coins, a few field flaws etc. Nice, typical early proof set in custom lucite holder. (4,750.00)

249 1889 Proof Set, seven pieces, all rather nice. The minor coins are nicely

rainbowed and free of carbon spots, the silver all look beautiful, but close examination shows the usual minor flaws we expect to fine in older proof issues, a few hairline scratches, lint mark or two, etc. Still a lovely set in custom holder. (2,750.00)

250 1894 PROOF set, six coins cent to dollar. Cent is lovely dark red, nickel

nicely toned and the silver bright and shiny. All have the above noted minor flaws. In custom case. (3,000.00)

251 1898 PROOF Set, six coins. Lovely appearance, not without its small flaws

but an item which will enhance any collection. In custom holder. (2,650.00)

252 1904 PROOF Set, six coins. Cent is cherry red, nickel rainbow, both slightly

spotted. The silver is all slightly marred by the usual tiny field flaws, hairlines, lint marks, slight discoloration noted on the dollar. In custom case. (2,650.00)

253 Complete PROOF set of Flying Eagle and Indian Cents, 1856-1909 lacking only the 1869 over 1868 (which does not exist in proof) but including both 1908S and 1909S in lovely uncirculated. The 1856 Flying Eagle is lovely, just beginning to rainbow. The remaining three FEs are all a little spotted or slightly stained, which is true of many of the coins in this set.

Equally, many of them are bright and lovely, most toned in varying colors of cherry reds, bronzes, etc. Many of them gleam out of the holder in breath-taking color, while close-examination will show some slight freckling on others, as is usual with old copper proofs. Taken as a unit, it is a gorgeous set, beautiful to behold, and hard to put together at this time. Trend value is over (13,000.00)

254 Buffalo Nickels (N68 to N135) 1913 to 1938 complete except for 1913 P-D-S-Ty 2, -overdate & 3 legged-all are Unc except for 1925-S which is VF. Set has usual amount of flat strike & most are fly specked, but not as bad as it sounds. (3,200.00)

255

Jefferson Nickels (N-135-N210) 1938-1963- Complete- all “P” Mints are proof-some of which have some speckling.

END OF SALE — THANK YOU

DON’T BID IN THE DARK

If buying at auction is new to you If you are unsure of what to bid If your bids are generally unsuccessful If you would like advice in bidding

You can take much of the guessing out of bidding at auction. We’ll be happy to place our sixty-seven years of auction experience at your service, by supplying our estimates of the probable realizations of the lots in which you are interested. Simply send us a list of these lot numbers (leaving space for us to insert our valuations), and enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope. Our reply will be forwarded promptly. If time is short, call us for this information. OF COURSE, HOW MUCH YOU BID, OR WHETHER YOU BID AT ALL, IS UP TO YOU.

Naturally, using our estimates doesn’t mean that you will obtain every lot on which you bid. But you will be in the ball park, and should obtain a fair proportion of your bids, and at prices consistent with current market values.
