THE REGENCY AUCTION <strong>29</strong><br />

LOT 104<br />

H10C 1839 NO DRAPERY. NGC MS65 CAC<br />

A beautifully toned and well struck early Seated half dime.<br />

Everything about this coin is of GEM quality and the eye<br />

appeal cannot be beat. A bold mint luster beams with a glowing<br />

brilliance under a layer of amber, teal, and salmon coloration.<br />

Each device is fully formed from a precision blow from the<br />

dies. Housed in an old NGC “fatty” holder.<br />

PCGS 23, NGC 37, CAC 9. The last one to sell was a PCGS/<br />

CAC coin sold in our July 2018 <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong> for $1,704<br />

and it did NOT have the exceptional, colorful look that this coin<br />

does. Worthy of a strong bid, the current PCGS value is listed at<br />

$1,600 and this coin, with its strong eye appeal will see intense<br />

bidding from collectors. Good luck!<br />

PCGS# 4319 | ESTIMATE: $1,200+<br />

LOT 105<br />

H10C 1859 PCGS MS67 CAC<br />

A visually seductive little jewel! Everything about this half<br />

dime is immaculate and superb! A bold vibrant luster beams<br />

from under a dusting of rich, teal-cobalt and orange-gold<br />

toning. Sharply struck devices stand out with bold crispness.<br />

The surfaces are smooth and we cannot find a single tick<br />

or mark worthy of mention that would take away from the<br />

awesome eye appeal.<br />

PCGS 13, NGC 12, CAC 17. It has been over three years since<br />

the last CAC approved example sold, the Eliasberg-Gardner<br />

coin that realized $3,<strong>29</strong>0 in October 2015. Prior to that, one sold<br />

for $3,819 in July 2014. The current Collector’s Universe value<br />

is listed at $3,500 and this coin should bring somewhere around<br />

that. We sold a 67+ CAC coin in May 2018’s <strong>Regency</strong> <strong>Auction</strong><br />

for $5,405. A great example for a type set or for a SUPERB set<br />

of half dimes.<br />

PCGS# 4371 | ESTIMATE: $3,000+<br />

LOT 106<br />

H10C 1859 NGC PR64 CAC<br />

A lovely toned jewel of a Seated half dime! Concentric rings<br />

of blue, teal, amber, gold, and coppery orange kiss the highly<br />

reflective mirrored fields. There a few tiny lines that keep the<br />

grade limited at PR64, but the eye appeal is very high end for<br />

the grade.<br />

Only 800 Proofs were struck. PCGS 75, NGC 63, CAC 14. The<br />

most recent CAC-approved coin was graded by PCGS and sold<br />

for $1,200 in the 2018 FUN auction. Prior to that, one sold in<br />

$1,<strong>29</strong>3 in June 2017. The current CU value is listed at $1,500.<br />

Worthy of a premium bid.<br />

PCGS# 4438 | ESTIMATE: $1,000+<br />

LOT 107<br />

10C 1805 4 BERRIES. PCGS VF20<br />

JR-2. Here is a pleasing collector grade example with even lilac<br />

dove and light silver-gray on both sides. Some light marks can<br />

be seen on the obverse, none of which are obtrusive or have a<br />

serious effect on the eye appeal.<br />

PCGS 33, NGC 9. The three most recent examples to sell in<br />

auction brought between $1,500 and $1,650 and the current<br />

PCGS value is listed at $1,800. A neat collector coin that will<br />

suit any budget minded numismatist.<br />

PCGS# 4477 | ESTIMATE: $1,350+<br />
