1 - 1c 1793 Wreath Vine/Bars PCGS XF40 CAC A very pleasing XF. The surfaces are not hacked and show no real porosity. Some light, natural toning is spread over both sides, while the color is a deeper semi-glossy brown. Miss Liberty and the details are well struck and have an even wear. The eye appeal is very pleasing! PCGS 30, NGC 14, CAC 8. The last of these to sell in a major auction brought $20,700.00 (2/13 Goldberg), but we expect this coin from the first year of regular US coinage to bring a little more. At Legend-Morphy we feel one of the greatest honors is to be consigned any 1793 or 1794 coinage. You just don’t find many premium examples like this still available. Good luck! PCGS # 1347. EST: $17,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 1 6
LOT - 2 2 - 1c 1811 PCGS AU58 CAC Pleasing quality. The obverse has slight porosity, but the reverse is smooth, and a few ticks are visible only through a strong glass. Both sides are a glossy, deep, original brown color. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and stand out boldly. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 8, NGC 3, CAC 1. The last of these to appear at auction sold for $10,063.00 (2/13 Goldberg) and was not a CAC coin. We cannot stress enough how rare this date and grade is. PCGS # 1555. EST: $10,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 3 3 - 1c 1837 Medium Letters PCGS AU55 CAC Glossy brown surfaces have no major problems. The wear is light and even, and all of the details are well struck. The eye appeal is pleasing! PCGS 35, NGC 14, CAC 4. PCGS # 1735. EST: $400.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 7
LOT - 4 4 - 1c 1841 PCGS PR64 RD This coin is a near miss GEM RD masterpiece! Deep mirrors are clear and have bold reflectivity, with just a few very trivial scattered ticks to be found through the use of a glass. There are no PVC spots, just some tiny toning dots, and most importantly, this is a genuine Mint Red piece. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have needle sharp strikes. The eye appeal is superb! PCGS 2, NGC 0, CAC 0. It’s estimated that only 25 were ever stuck and none have sold at auction since 2002, which is extremely rare. This is quite the opportunity for Type and Large Cent collectors. Good luck! PCGS # 1954. EST: $16,000.00+.
5 - 1c 1856 Upright 5 PCGS MS65 BN CAC OGH. Flawless surfaces are spread all over. Even using a strong glass there are no imperfections to found. The luster is light, and both sides are a beautiful chocolate brown with highlights of original Mint Red. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have sharp strikes. The eye appeal is phenomenal!
LOT - 5
8
PCGS 32, NGC 16, CAC 11. The last to sell at auction brought $1,175.00 (6/13 Heritage) and that piece was not CAC. Good luck! PCGS # 1919. EST: $1,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 6 6 - 1c 1858 Small Letters PCGS PR64 A delightful coin! Above average mirrors have good clarity, cleanliness, and reflectivity. The color is an original crisp golden brown. All of the details are pinpoint sharp sharp in strike. The eye appeal is fantastic! PCGS 39, NGC 7. The last of these to sell in a major auction brought $8,225.00 (1/13 Heritage) while a NGC piece sold for $9,400.00 (6/13 Heritage). We submitted this coin to PCGS for the first time for a collector and it hasn’t been on the market until now. This is the epitome of a fresh coin! PCGS # 2043. EST: $7,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 7 - 1c 1864 Copper Nickel PCGS MS66 CAC It’s truly amazing how this coin has survived for over 150 years in such a pristine condition. The smooth, clean, spotless surfaces are lit up by a full booming luster, and there are even some faint hints of semi-prooflike mirrors. The color is an original copper nickel tan/gold. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and stand out nicely. The eye appeal is tremendous!
LOT - 7
PCGS 19, NGC 19, CAC 8. Surprisingly no 1864 Copper Nickel PCGS CAC has ever sold at auction. This really is a terrific coin! PCGS # 2070. EST: $7,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 8 - 1c 1875 NGC MS65 RB CAC NGC Fatty Holder. This coin has surprising luster, which makes the original Mint Red/Golden brown colors stand out nicely. The surfaces are clean overall, save for one toning spot. All of the details are sharply struck and do stand out. The eye appeal is wonderful!
LOT - 8
PCGS 91, NGC 114, CAC 19. The last of these to sell at auction brought $920.00 (11/11 Heritage). PCGS # 2122. EST: $750.00. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
9
LOT - 9 9 - 1c 1899 PCGS MS67 RD CAC This incredible coin ranks among the very finest GEM MS RD Indians in existence! You can tell this coin has been carefully saved since the day it left the bank, as there isn’t even a single minute problem of any kind. The surfaces are satiny smooth and have a full booming luster, while both sides are an awesome GEM Mint Red. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have full strikes. The eye appeal is really memorable! PCGS 8, NGC 10, CAC 5. The last two PCGS/CAC MS67RD pieces sold for $37,375.00 (2/12 Heritage) and $21,850.00 (1/11 Heritage) respectively and this coin blows away the 1898 that just sold for $17,625.00 (7/13 Heritage). These are not as common as you might think. If you’re a picky buyer and especially if you’re building a world class Type Set, MS Indian Set, then this coin is a must see. It will not disappoint! PCGS # 2204. EST: $15,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 10 - 1c 1908 PCGS MS66 RD CAC A perfect GEM Mint Red coin for a picky collector! The surfaces are pristine and smooth, while a full, booming luster shows off the original Mint Red color. There is a microscopic toning dot and no spots. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have exceptional strikes. The eye appeal is fabulous!
LOT - 10
PCGS 46, NGC 32, CAC 5. The last to sell brought $3,818.00 (10/12 Heritage). Good luck finding another! PCGS # 2231. EST: $2,750.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 11 - 1c 1862 PCGS PR65 Cameo CAC Photoseal. This coin is a stone cold GEM with superior deep, crystal clear, clean, highly reflective mirrors that beam from all over. There are far more lines on the holder than on the coin. Both sides are a beautiful, totally original copper nickel/gold. Miss Liberty and the details are thickly frosted and have pinpoint sharp strikes. The eye appeal is very nice.
LOT - 11
10
PCGS 20, NGC 21, CAC 8. Only 550 were ever minted. and the last of these to appear at auction brought $2,760.00 (4/12 Heritage). These are now impossible to find! Good luck! PCGS # 82259. EST: $2,250.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 12 12 - 1c 1883 PCGS PR65 RB CAC Our consignor claims they plucked this coin from an original Proof Set, and said the rest of the set was simply not worthy. This is one of the wildest multicolored 1C we’ve ever seen! You don’t even have to tilt the coin to see the colors. Electric rings of original red/gold/violet/pearl green/lime explode all over, while the mirrors are spotless and clean. Every detail is pinpoint sharp and the eye appeal will make your jaw drop! This coin’s value is derived from its colors. PCGS # 2337. EST: $500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 13 13 - 1c 1894 NGC PR67 RB The finest RB graded by PCGS or NGC! Outstanding mirrors dazzle with great clarity, cleanliness, and stunning reflectivity. There are more problems on the holder then the coin. Both sides are a rich, vivid Mint Red/pale violet/pale gold color. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have exceptional strikes. The eye appeal is great! PCGS 0, NGC 1.This coin last appeared and sold for $2,530.00 (8/10 Heritage). PCGS # 2370. EST: $2,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 14 14 - 1c 1898 NGC PR66 RD Cameo CAC Deep, clean, crystal clear, clean, highly reflective mirrors put on a show, while beautiful Mint Red/ violet/gold/brown colors swirl together gracefully. Miss Liberty and the details are needle sharp and have thick frost. The eye appeal is superb! PCGS 17, NGC 30, CAC 5. The last to sell in a major auction was a PCGS piece which brought $881.00 (1/13 Heritage). This coin is just as nice as any PCGS piece! PCGS # 82382. EST: $750.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 15 15 - 1c 1909 Lincoln PCGS MS67 RD CAC Lincoln and all the details are at their frosty bests here. Sharply struck and problem free surfaces are smooth and clean, while a full booming luster shows off GEM original Mint Red. Unless you’re expecting an MS68RD in a 67 holder, there’s no way you won’t love this GEM. The eye appeal is phenomenal! PCGS 66, NGC 5, CAC 15. The last to sell in a major auction brought $3,055.00 (6/13 Heritage). We expect this superior GEM to bring more! PCGS # 2431. EST: $3,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
11
LOT - 16 16 - 1c 1909-S VDB PCGS MS65 RD OGH Type I Holder. There is no question that this coin is full GEM Mint Red. The surfaces are clean, smooth, and a strong luster shows off mellow, original colors. Lincoln and all the details are sharply struck. The eye appeal is superb! PCGS 801, NGC 172. The last to sell at auction brought $4,230.00 (11/13 Stacks-Bowers). Good luck! PCGS # 2428. EST: $4,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 17
LOT - 18 18 - 1c 1921-S PCGS MS64 RD OGH. This is definitely full GEM RD with some light golden brown toning sprinkled about. The surfaces are extremely clean and sleek, while a strong luster shows off the highlights nicely. Lincoln and the details are exceptionally struck. The eye appeal is great! PCGS 86, NGC 24. The last to sell at auction brought $1,880.00 (8/13 Heritage). This is a fresh coin to the market. PCGS # 2536. EST: $1,750.00. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 19
17 - 1c 1917 PCGS MS66+ RD CAC What a neat piece! Only some minor planchet baldness by the edge keeps this coin from MS67RD and $30,000.00. Overall, the quality is very high end, and save for the nearly invisible planchet baldness, the surfaces are smooth and clean. A full, glowing luster shows off beautiful GEM Mint Red colors. Lincoln and all of the details are sharply struck. The eye appeal is great!
19 - 1c 1955/1955 Doubled Die PCGS MS65 BN CAC OGH. The virtually flawless surfaces on this terrific specimen are superior to most. A pinpoint toning dot or two are scattered around and the luster is light. Both sides are a gorgeous, even chocolate brown with faint hints of red. Lincoln and all the details are sharply struck. The eye appeal is fantastic!
PCGS 121, NGC 23, CAC 13. The last to sell at auction brought $2,409.00 (11/13 Heritage), but remember, the upgrade would cost you $30,000.00, if you could even find one! L PCGS # 2497. EST: $2,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
PCGS 6, NGC 14, CAC 5. The last to sell in a major auction brought $10,350.00 (2/12 Heritage). Good luck! PCGS # 2826. EST: $7,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
12
LOT - 20 20 - 1c 1915 PCGS PR66 RB CAC No question this coin sat totally undisturbed for the last 98 years! The quality is incredibly high end and it’s a mystery as to why PCGS did not + this coin. The original reddish brown matte surfaces have no imperfections of any kind and exhibit a strong luster. This is not a streaky coin. Lincoln and all details are fully struck. The eye appeal is tremendous! PCGS 18, NGC 18, CAC 10. PCGS has graded none higher and the last to sell in a major auction brought $6,756.00 (1/13 Stacks-Bowers). If you love superb GEM Proof Lincolns, this coin will more than please you! PCGS # 322. EST: $6,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
21 - 2c 1868 PCGS MS64 RB CAC This coin was submitted twice seeking an MS65RB grade, but besides that, this coin really borders on full Mint Red. Superb surfaces are incredibly clean and sleek, with traces of semi-prooflike mirrors. You can actually see some light die polishing lines, while a bold luster shows off an original golden Mint Red color. Every detail is pinpoint sharp and the eye appeal looks even better than MS64!
LOT - 21
PCGS 168, NGC 102, CAC 17. The last of these to sell at auction brought only $646.00 (7/13 Heritage). The ability to buy an 1868 GEM Copper piece for under $1,000.00 sounds like a steal to us! L PCGS # 3598. EST: $650.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
13
22 - 2c 1864 Small Motto PCGS PR63 BN This may very well be the most famous and rare example of a 2C piece in existence! There is little reflectivity due to the thicker brown/ pale blue colors that are evenly spread throughout. We think this may have had a light dip, but there are no visible spots or problems. The details are needle sharp in strike and the eye appeal is sheer perfection. PCGS 1, NGC 0. This coin last sold for $29,900.00 (11/12 Stacks-Bowers) and the consignor has since upgraded to a stunning GEM. Keep in mind, this is probably one of the most affordable 1864 2C Small Motto Proofs you’ll ever see! PCGS # 3624. EST: $32,500.00-$36,000.00.
LOT - 22 14
23 - 2c 1866 NGC PR65 RB Cameo CAC This is a superb GEM by anyone’s tough standards. Icy, deep, crystal clear, super clean, boldly reflective mirrors light up the surfaces, and original Mint Red/gold/pale violet colors swirl all over. Every detail is pinpoint sharp in strike and has strong frost. The eye appeal is mesmerizing!
LOT - 23
PCGS 58, NGC 42, CAC 1. Only 725 were ever minted. We cannot find any auction records for this grade, but any 2C GEM Proof Cameo is rare and desirable. Good luck! PCGS # 83631. EST: $1,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 24 - 3cS 1860 PCGS PR65 CAC This is a very underrated, rare date in GEM, with deep, glittering mirrors. There is a band of light golden brown that blends into frosty centers. Every detail is needle sharp and has thick frost. The eye appeal is really nice!
LOT - 24
PCGS 9, NGC 11, CAC 6. Only 1000 were minted, but most were melted due to poor sales at the Mint. The last to sell in a major auction brought $6,612.00 and was not CAC stickered (2/12 Heritage). That should show you how genuinely rare these are! L PCGS # 3709. EST: $5,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 25 25 - 3cS 1866 PCGS PR66+ Cameo CAC This date is not as easy to find in nice condition as you might think! This coin was in Legend Numismatics’ #1 Registry Set, and after careful examination you’ll see why they included it. Deep, shimmering mirrors are super clean, clear, strongly reflective, and show less lines than you’ll find on the holder. An even, moderate mix of lavender/purple/pale navy/gold swirls over both sides. Every detail is needle sharp and has thick frost. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 8, NGC 8, CAC 5. Only 725 were ever minted and this is the only PCGS PR66+ CAM, which sold at auction for $5,876.00 (8/13 Heritage). As we mentioned before this is a very difficult date to find in GEM. We expect strong bidding. Good luck! PCGS # 83716. EST: $5,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 15
LOT - 26 26 - 3cN 1874 PCGS PR67 CAC What a masterpiece! Only a few Mint made lines keep this from PR68! You don’t typically find this date in decent condition, and the PCGS & NGC populations prove that. The spotless surfaces are extra clean, but do reveal light, Mint made die polishing lines when viewed through a strong glass. The mirrors are strong and offer good radiance and clarity, while some light, beautiful pastel colors are visible. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and exhibit thick frost. The eye appeal is wonderful! PCGS 2, NGC 2, CAC 1. After 25+ years of grading only two pieces have been certified by PCGS. Prior to one selling for $8,519.00 (8/13 Heritage), the last PCGS piece to appear in a major sale was back in 2005 when one brought $9,200.00 (2/05 Heritage). We feel this piece represents a strong opportunity not only for 3CN Proof collectors, both also for anyone building a Type Set or seeking special low population coins at or below $10,000.00. PCGS # 3770. EST: $8,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.

OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are just that: estimates. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so collectors can have a better idea of value. One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend-Morphy determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale. We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us. We are here to help you!

90 - 25c 1827/3 Restrike PCGS Secure PR66 CAC Legend-Morphy is proud to have been consigned not one, but two incredibly rare GEM Bust Quarter Proofs. Restrikes were minted primarily because Mint officials would restruck specimens of these dates for private sales to favored collectors. The effects of extensive rust on both obverse and reverse dies can be seen on the coin offered here, indicating this piece is a restrike example, probably produced circa 1876, during Mint Director Henry Linderman’s second tour at the Mint. Linderman was known for the large number of numismatic delicacies created during his tenure. The deeply mirrored fields are enhanced by lovely iridescent shades of blue, rose, gold, and gray toning. The usual effects of die rust can be observed on both sides, and heavy die striations can be seen in the pristine fields. Miss Liberty and the details are outrageously struck and stand out with gentle frost. The eye appeal is jaw dropping! NGC has certified only one specimen at the Premium Gem Proof level, with none finer; while PCGS has graded two examples in PR66, with none finer (6/09). No PCGS CAC piece has ever sold at auction. Like the 1822 listed before this, we think a coin like this should easily be valued at $250,000.00. PCGS # 5374. EST: $175,000.00-225,000.00.

THE SIMPSON SEATED QUARTER DUPLICATES Legend-Morphy Rare Coin Auctions is proud to have been afforded the opportunity to sell the duplicates from the Bob R. Simpson Proof Seated Quarter Collection.

The majority of the coins offered here have been replaced by coins from the incredible Eric Newman Collection.

OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are just that: estimates. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so collectors can have a better idea of value. One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend-Morphy determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale. We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us.

OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are just that: estimates. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so collectors can have a better idea of value. One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend-Morphy determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale. We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us.

Here is a portion of the original description: This superb GEM proof is both rare and desirable on its own. Transitions prevail on each side, the obverse showing a pastel crescent of purple near the lower rim blending into near-brilliance on the upper portion. The reverse shows a small, nearly untoned area near the center melding into the sky-blue and pinkish-lilac that dominate the rims. The deep patina fails to dampen the perceptible field-device contrast on each side, and the strike is all that could be desired.� We’ll add that the mirrors are deep, clean, and offer strong reflectivity.

305 - 1/2c - $1 1857 Proof Set PCGS CAC (Lot 8 coins) This set is missing only the Proof FE, though we’ve actually seen another 1857 set where they ran out of 25C and included an MS65 piece. This numismatic treasure came to us via our sister company, Legend Numismatics. We’ve only seen maybe two or three other 1857 Matched Original Proof Sets! 1/2C PCGS PR64RB CAC - The mirrors on this problem free coin do show flash and clarity. Both sides are a faded red brown that darkens in the centers. Miss Liberty and the details are sharp and the eye appeal is fabulous! 1C Small Date PCGS PR64BN CAC - Not only do we wonder why this is not a higher grade, we also think it’s more RB than BN. The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have surprisingly strong reflectivity. The color is gorgeous. Miss Liberty and every detail is needle sharp in strike. Even the pickiest buyer will love this coin! 3CS PCGS PR65 CAC - The obverse has light mint made striations, but overall this coin is clean and problem free. The mirrors are strong and have excellent reflectivity, while a deeper olive/pale navy color is evenly spread all over. All of the details are sharply struck and the eye appeal is great! H10C PCGS PR64 CAC - This high end coin has no major problems. The mirrors are clean, clear, and have bold reflectivity. Both sides have superb olive/pale navy colors like the rest of the coins. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck. Very pretty eye appeal! 10C PCGS PR64 CAC - The only things keeping this coin from a full PR65 designation are some microscopic planchet divots. The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have bold reflectivity, with colors that match all the other coins. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have sharp strikes. The eye appeal is superb! 25C PCGS PR64 CAC - Deep, glassy, crystal clear, highly reflective mirrors beam from all over, and while you can detect a few trivial lines, they can only be found with a strong glass. The obverse has the same olive/golden brown/pale navy colors that adorn the other coins, while the reverse is lighter with purple centers. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have full strikes. The eye appeal is beautiful! Only 40 were ever minted. 50C PCGS PR64 CAC - This exceptional coin has a few stray lines, but they are very well hidden. The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have bold reflectivity, while the same moderate mix of olive/pale purple/blue/golden brown swirls all over. Miss Liberty and the details are needle sharp and have thick frost. The eye appeal is terrific! Only 25 were ever minted. $1 PCGS PR64 CAC - We think this coin should have been graded PR64+ Cameo, but obviously PCGS did not agree. The glassy mirrors are perfectly clean, clear, and reflective. A few light lines can only be found with a strong glass. A heart pounding blue/olive/pale purple/pale golden brown color scheme matches the rest of the set. Miss Liberty stands out with thick, creamy frost and a full strike. The eye appeal is gorgeous! Only 50 were ever minted. We cannot stress enough the rarity, quality, and eye appeal of this set. At most, only 25 sets ever could even have been made. You may never get another chance to own a 157 year old near full GEM Proof Set!

306 - 1c - $1 1860 Proof Set PCGS PR CAC (7 coins) A once in a lifetime treasure! 1860s Original Matched Proof Sets like this just do not exist.. Legend-Morphy has handled some impressive Proof Sets since its inception, the last of which being the full 1883 Proof Set in our December sale, but none have come close to this set’s epic rarity or quality! There are maybe less than a dozen original 1860 sets still in existence, let alone 2-3 sets that even come close to this kind of quality. As you know, our sister company Legend Numismatics considers these to be the last frontier in numismatics. We are proud to offer this incredible set for your bidding and acquisition. 1C PCGS PR65 CAC - Moderate mirrors are above average for the date, and exhibit excellent clarity, depth, cleanliness, and reflectivity. A gorgeous mix of original golden brown/pale violet/soft pearl green swirl all over. Every detail is frosty with a pinpoint sharp strike. The eye appeal is phenomenal! PCGS 39, NGC 15, CAC 11. The last to sell in a major auction brought $4,405.00 (9/13 Goldberg) 3CS PCGS PR64+ CAMEO CAC - A few very light lines keep this superb coin from full PR65. The mirrors are deep and have bold reflectivity, while both sides are a gorgeous iridescent olive/pale blue/gold color similar to all the other coins. Every detail is needle sharp and has strong frost. The eye appeal is huge! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. No PCGS PR64CAM, including this coin, has ever sold at auction. H10C PCGS PR66+ CAC - It’s hard to say what keeps this coin from PR67, as there are no real problems. The glassy mirrors are super deep, clear, and highly reflective. This coin has the same blue/olive/gold color scheme as all the other coins. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have razor sharp strikes. The eye appeal is tremendous! PCGS 9, NGC 12, CAC 7. This is the only PR66+ graded by PCGS. 10C PCGS PR65+ CAC - Yet another high end coin that we’re uncertain as to why PCGS did not grade higher. The mirrors are super clean, deep, clear, and have bold reflectivity, while a natural mix of original blue/olive/gold colors evenly blankets both sides. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have full strikes. The eye appeal is bold! PCGS 19, NGC 17, CAC 6. This is the only PR65+ graded by either PCGS or NGC. It’s a must see! 25C PCGS PR64+ CAMEO CAC - You can only see a light line and an old, soft fingerprint through a strong glass. The deep mirrors have intense clarity and are incredibly reflective. A swirling mix of blue/olive/gold is spread all over. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have full strikes. The eye appeal is terrific! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. 50C PCGS PR66 CAC - We would have given this superior, high end piece a +. Bold, deep mirrors are clean, clear, and have tremendous reflectivity. The same blue/olive/pale gold/pale violet colors present in the rest of the set explode all over this coin. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have razor sharp strikes. The eye appeal is awesome! PCGS 8, NGC 21, CAC 3. No PCGS CAC PR66s have ever sold at auction, but a PCGS/NON CAC piece did sell for $16,100.00 (8/11 Heritage). The supreme quality and rarity of this piece are undisputed. Sadly, because of incredible coins like this, many great matched Proof Sets are broken up. $1 PCGS PR65+ CAC - Everything about this coin is truly phenomenal. Deep, crystal clear, super clean, incredibly reflective mirrors beam from all over. Only a well hidden line or two keep this coin from full PR66. The obverse has a ring of original blue/olive/pale violet that opens into lighter centers and the entire reverse is toned similarly, matching the rest of the set. Miss Liberty and the details are fully struck and frosted a creamy white. The eye appeal is neat! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. No PCGS PR65+ CAC piece has ever sold at auction. If this coin were in a major auction we could see it easily selling for $20,000.00. Only 1000 1860 sets were possible, but because the Mint suffered with poor sales, most were melted, but the true melted numbers are not known. There have been very few true GEM 1860 Proof Sets ever offered, and not many GEM Proof 1860 coins have survived either. Collectors Universe values this set at $47,775.00, but we feel that number is low simply because so few of these coins have ever been traded. You can easily add 10-20% on top of that and approach a more realistic value. We generally add 10% for a Matched Set premium. If you’re seeking something really special to add to your collection, or are looking for a tremendous put away item, we suggest you consider this set. You certainly won’t see another like it anytime soon. EST: $50,000.00+. This set is being sold with no reserve.

307 - 1c - $1 1867 Proof Set PCGS CAC (Lot 10 coins) Ex Garrett, not noted on the holder. We can only recall seeing three or four 1867 Matched Original Proof Sets like this. Each piece is pristine and very high end. Sets like this really are the last frontier in numismatics. 1C PCGS PR64RD CAC - Only a thin line or two from PR65. The mirrors are deep and offer bold reflectivity. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and pinpoint sharp in strike! 2C PCGS PR64RB CAC - We would grade this coin PR65, but we’re not sure PCGS would upgrade it due to its semi-streaky wood grain toning. Either way, there is no question this coin is 100% original. The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have strong reflectivity. The eye appeal is neat! 3CS PCGS PR64 CAC - Another high end coin that PCGS might not have liked the look of. The toning is matched and appears slightly uneven, while the mirrors are clearly visible and exhibit strong reflectivity. The eye appeal is nice! 3CN PCGS PR66 CAC - Boldly mirrored with pretty colors. The mirrors are deep, clear, spotless, and boldly reflective. This is not a typical dull Proof Set coin. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have bold strikes. The eye appeal is wonderful! 5C No Rays PCGS PR64 - Although this did not CAC, we won’t replace it since it is an original member of the set. The mirrors are clean with strong flash and the color is a faded gold/violet, which fits nicely with the other coins. There are no spots and every detail is needle sharp. H10C PCGS PR65 CAC - Super clean mirrors have remarkable clarity and intense reflectivity. Smaller coins always accumulate killer color combinations and both sides have a gorgeous mix of green/blue/gold/pale violet. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck. This coin has lots of life! 10C PCGS PR64 CAC - Clean, clear, reflective mirrors show off the same blue/green/gold/pale violet colors as the rest of the set. Only a few lines keep this from a PR65 designation! 25C PCGS PR64 - We’re not sure why this was denied a CAC sticker, but it may have had something to do with the die polishing lines surrounding Miss Liberty. Both sides have deep, crystal clear, clean, and highly reflective mirrors. The same blue/green/gold/pale violet colors also adorn this coin. Miss Liberty and the details are bold and frosty. 50C PCGS PR64+ CAC - You need a strong glass to see the few wispy lines that keep this coin from a full PR65 grade. The mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have strong reflectivity, while a mix of original color is now more violet/olive/blue/gold. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have full strikes. This is an impressive coin! $1 PCGS PR64 CAC - Sadly, this is the coin in the set that dealers will go crazy over and break up 147 years of brotherhood just to make a buck. We feel that PCGS erred in not grading this piece at least a PR64+, especially since the reverse is a full PR65. The only thing that keeps it from a PR65 are some small lines in the right field, otherwise this coin is nearly flawless. Overall, the mirrors are deep, clear, clean, and have powerful reflectivity. An outrageous mix of royal blue/violet/gold/golden brown colors swirl all over in a semi circle pattern. Miss Liberty and the details are frosted and have sharp strikes. On its own we could see this coin fetching upwards of $10,000.00, but you’ll have to see it to believe it! We hope this set will sell to someone who will keep it intact, especially since you never see earlier sets like this with such beautiful original colors. Only 725 sets were ever minted and we’d guess that less than fifteen are still intact. Good luck! EST: $17,500.00+. This set is being sold with no reserve.

OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are just that: estimates. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so collectors can have a better idea of value. One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend-Morphy determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale. We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us.

The eye appeal is tremendous! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. Only 30 pieces were ever minted!

315 - $2 1/2 1796 No Stars PCGS AU58 Legend-Morphy is proud to have been selected by a prominent collector to sell several of his incredible holdings. This collector has a very good eye, an almost encyclopedic knowledge, and will spend hours talking coins with an unwavering passion. This prime coin ranks as one of his all time favorite pieces and he felt it was time to pass this fabulous piece on to a new owner. Both sides reveal a few light and widely scattered thin lines, but there are no visible hits, discolorations, or negatives. The wear is light and well hidden, while some light luster is also visible. The obverse is a beautiful bright gold, and the reverse shows hints of a deeper red color, which may be from resting on felt or a cloth. Miss Liberty and the details are exceptionally struck. The eye appeal is fantastic! PCGS 13, NGC 15. The last PCGS AU58 to sell in a major auction brought $161,000.00 (8/10) and this particular coin last sold for $212,750.00 (11/07 Stacks-Bowers). There hasn’t even been an AU55 sold at auction since 2006. This coin’s rarity is far stronger than the POP Reports would lead you to believe, and now it’s time for the market to determine this 218 year old coin’s true value! PCGS # 7645. EST: $165,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 315 121
LOT - 316 316 - $2 1/2 1839-C PCGS AU58 Pleasing quality. Its possible that this coin was lightly dipped long ago and despite a few wispy lines and light ticks the surfaces appear clean. A strong luster is visible and shows off brilliant yellow gold colors with no spots or discolorations. Miss Liberty and the details are lightly frosted and have surprisingly sharp strikes. The eye appeal is excellent! PCGS 11, NGC 64. The last to sell in a major auction brought $7,187.00 (2/02 Goldberg). That’s proof as to how rare these are. Good luck! PCGS #7699. EST: $11,000.00+.

319 - $2 1/2 1858-C PCGS MS62+ Not a bad coin at all. Although this coin does have some light lines and ticks, it’s not chewed up, and you really need a glass to see them. A surprisingly intense luster shows off original, spotless, brilliant yellow gold colors. Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have exceptional full strikes. The eye appeal is super pretty! PCGS 13, NGC 10. This is the only MS62+ graded and it has never been to auction, but a regular MS62 last sold for $13,225.00 (7/08 Stacks-Bowers), and an MS63 sold for $18,400.00 (1/12 Heritage).

Miss Liberty and the details are sharp in strike and fully frosted with a thick gold color. The eye appeal is incredible! PCGS 3, NGC 2, CAC 3. Only 80 coins were ever minted and this is the only PR65+ DCAM graded by PCGS with only 3 coins possibly graded higher.

326 - $2 1/2 1911-D Strong D PCGS Secure MS65 CAC Nothing grinds our gears more than seeing inferior coins with an inflated grade, but this high end coin certainly stands out amongst its peers. But obviously PCGS was quite stingy the day it graded this piece. Absolutely problem free surfaces are incredibly smooth and satiny in texture. Even the dreaded right reverse is amazingly clean. Both sides exhibit a killer luster, and glow with thick, original light orange/ yellow gold colors. There are no spots. Every detail is crisply struck and stands out with light frost. The eye appeal is phenomenal! PCGS 19, NGC 84, CAC 7. There are no CAC pieces graded higher, and no PCGS/CAC pieces have ever sold at auction. We can not stress enough just how high end this coin is. If this coin were an MS65+, it could easily bring $95,000.00-$100,000.00. This is an incredible opportunity for anyone building a GEM $2.5 Indian Set! PCGS # 7943. EST: $70,000.00+.

LOT - 327 327 - $3 1854-O PCGS XF45 CAC A GEM XF all the way! To the naked eye the surfaces look smooth and you can only detect some light lines and a tiny tick or two with a strong glass. Some light luster can be seen and there is a darker shade of original gold that opens into lighter yellow gold centers. Miss Liberty and the details are well struck and have light, even wear. There are no discolorations on any high points. The eye appeal is wonderful! PCGS 142, NGC 149, CAC 12. The last CAC piece to sell at auction was an NGC piece which bought only $3,290.00 (9/13 Heritage). We expect this coin to bring a little more! Good luck! PCGS # 7971. EST: $3,250.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
328 - $3 1867 PCGS AU55 Light traces of semi-prooflike mirrors can be seen along with light traces of luster. The surfaces have only a few very light ticks, but no stains or spots. The color is a rich off gold, and while we suspect this coin was lightly dipped long ago, it has come back nicely. Miss Liberty and the details are very well struck. The eye appeal is excellent!
LOT - 328
PCGS 24, NGC 24. Only 2600 were ever minted. The last to sell in a major auction brought $2,703.00 (8/13 Heritage). We think these are very undervalued in today’s market. PCGS # 7988. EST: $2,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.

329 - $5 1853 PCGS MS66 This coin is the finest known, and the date is so rare in MS that there are none graded by PCGS between MS64 and MS65! We are honored to have it consigned to this sale.

Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have sharp strikes. The eye appeal is superb! PCGS 1, NGC 0. There is no record of this coin ever appearing at auction. An NGC MS65, the only MS65 to sell at auction, brought $55,000.00 (5/95)! We cannot stress enough how rare this coin is. PCGS has been in operations for 26+ years and this is the lone 1853 $5 PCGS has graded above MS63, and NGC has graded only one MS65 or higher! If you collect $5 pieces this may be your only chance to own a truly superb GEM 1853. Good luck! PCGS# 8253. EST: $60,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 329 130
330 - $5 1853-C PCGS MS64 CAC This is the finest known 1853 $5 in existence, and it is well worthy of this designation. Sadly too many Charlotte and Dahlonega Mint MS coins were conserved in the late 90’s, and as a result very few totally original coins like this have survived. We consider this coin to be one of the finest Charlotte minted coins in existence. This specimen has superior surfaces with just a few very tiny, widely scattered ticks visible under a strong glass. An intense luster lights up the full prooflike mirrors, while both sides are an original, even gold color. Miss Liberty and the details are fully struck and have thick, bold frost. The eye appeal is mindboggling! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. This coin last sold for $51,750.00 (5/08 Stacks-Bowers) and has been off the market since. That price seems very low in today’s rarity market, especially for the finest known coin from an obsolete Mint. We can see this magnificent coin setting a record price. Good luck! PCGS # 8254. EST: $60,000.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 330 131

There are just a few scattered, trivial ticks, while the color is a spotless, phenomenal deeper gold color with no discoloration. Miss Liberty and the details are fully struck and have thick frost. The eye appeal is sensational! PCGS 2, NGC 5, CAC 1. Even in MS65, this coin has a population of only 5, with none graded higher. It has never been to auction, and there is no accurate pricing for a piece like this, but we promise it will sell for a hefty premium above the Collectors Universe value of $15,000.00. What a great opportunity for $5 Liberty collectors! PCGS # 8396. EST: $17,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.

Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have full strikes. The eye appeal is great! PCGS 36, NGC 45. The last to sell in a major auction brought $43,125.00 (3/12 Stacks-Bowers).

Some luster remains and give this piece an AU look, while both sides are a deeper gold color. Miss Liberty and the details are well struck. The eye appeal is quite nice! PCGS 7, NGC 6. Of the 10,000 minted, few survive, and the last to sell in a major auction brought $14,100.00 (10/12 Heritage). We expect strong bidding on this exceptional piece. Good luck! PCGS # 8638.

OUR ESTIMATES The estimates you see published in this catalog are just that: estimates. Keep in mind that a coin could be either low or high end for the grade, have stunning color or be dull, all of which radically affect a coin’s value. Yes, there can be huge price differences within a grade, and we offer estimates as a guide so collectors can have a better idea of value. One thing we will never do is offer low ball estimates in order to claim stronger sales. These published estimates represent what Legend-Morphy determines to be an approximate high wholesale value for the coin. The numbers are based upon current market values, similar trades, auction prices, published prices, and a consideration of the coin’s quality. There is no guarantee that the estimated prices are minimums or are exactly what you can expect to get if you attempt to resell them wholesale. We always advise you to view the coins you are interested in and calculate what you’ll pay using as much information as possible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask us.

340 - $10 1904-O PCGS MS65 CAC This high end GEM piece is the highlight of Abe Grundstein’s Box of 20. At first glance, this coin looks more like a 1901-P than a 1904-O.

Prior to this coin crossing the auction block, only one NGC coin sold in 2009, and before that none had sold since 2004. This coin can fit into many categories, but most importantly it needs to fit into a great new home. Good luck! Ex Abe Bear Grundstein Collection. P CGS # 8756. EST: $22,500.00+.

353 - 50c 1892 Columbian PCGS MS66+ PCGS does not note it on the holder, but this coin is fully prooflike. The surfaces are sleek, exceedingly clean, and nothing is washed out like a typical Columbian. All the details are frosted and have exceptional strikes. The eye appeal is sensational!

PCGS 154, NGC 226, CAC 21. PCGS has graded only 4 in MS65+, though a PCGS/NON CAC piece sold for $9,200.00 (3/12 Stacks-Bowers), and the last regular MS65 sold for $7,637.50 (4/13 Heritage). Even if you’re a picky commem collector, this piece will more than satisfy! PCGS # 9307. EST: $7,500.00. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 355 - 50c 1928 Hawaiian NGC MS65 CAC Most likely a coin from the Bank of Hawaii hoard. The surfaces have nothing more than a tiny tick and scratch or two, which you really have to look hard to see. A moderate luster shows off the typical seafoam green/ gold color typical with the Bank of Hawaii coins. All of the details are well struck and the eye appeal is pretty.
LOT - 355

This coin is being sold with no reserve. 358 - 50c 1926 Oregon PCGS MS67 CAC This is a tremendous original coin, and there is no question that it sat undisturbed, acquiring a pretty, light sheen to it.

360 - 50c 1935 Texas PCGS MS67+ You rarely ever see red/gold GEM Commems anymore. The obverse has original violet/gold/navy/ silver colors splashed over the surfaces while the reverse is red/gold. The surfaces are amazingly clean and smooth while a full blazing luster shows off the colors. All details are sharply struck and stand out nicely. The eye appeal is sensational! If you love colored Commems, you have to see this piece! PCGS 8, NGC 4. The last to sell in a major auction brought $1,175.00, but this coin should sell for significantly more because of the colors. Opportunity knocks loud here! PCGS # 9382. EST: $2,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.
LOT - 360 142
361 - 50c 1948 BTW PCGS MS67 CAC What a dazzling GEM! The surfaces are incredibly clean and sleek, while a full booming luster shows zero imperfections and some traces of semi-prooflike mirrors.

LOT - 362
PCGS 9, NGC 9, CAC 8. The last to sell in a major auction brought $3,738.00 (4/12 Heritage). We doubt if you’ll be seeing many of these for sale at auction or offered privately as time goes on. We expect substantial interest by commem collectors on this coin. Good luck! PCGS # 9424. EST: $3,500.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve. 363 - 50c 1954 Wash-Carver PCGS MS66+ Seriously above average, with very little weakness visible. Just a few light frost breaks and a tiny scuff. The luster is bold and shows off the crisp creamy white surfaces nicely. All of the details are sharply struck and the eye appeal is nice!
LOT - 363
PCGS 8, NGC 2. Only 12,000 were ever minted and the last to sell at auction brought $1,208.00 (3/11 Heritage). These are not as easy to find as you may think! PCGS # 9442. EST: $1,100.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.

Miss Liberty and the details are frosty and have extra sharp strikes. The eye appeal is nice! PCGS 0, NGC 1. This coin sold in the Newman sale for $24,675.00 to a good friend of Legend-Morphy.

EST: $20,000.00+. 365 - P1C 1858 J-212 NGC PR66 Cameo This is an R-4 (76-100 known) 1859 design struck in copper nickel.

Stunning deep, crystal clear, clean, highly reflective mirrors beam from all over and the only thing keeping this out of a PR66 holder is a small planchet disturbance hidden in the right field. Outrageous original copper colors of brown/violet/red brown/blue/purple/gold swirl vividly over the surfaces. Miss Liberty and the details are sharply struck and have light frost. The eye appeal is phenomenal! PCGS 3, NGC 0, CAC 2. We believe this coin is counted twice in the populations for both PCGS and CAC. This coin just brought $4,406.00 at auction (8/13 Heritage). PCGS # 71122. EST: $4,250.00+. This coin is being sold with no reserve.

378 - $1 1870 J-998 PCGS PR64 RB CAC This is an R-7 (4 to 12 known) Standard Silver design struck in copper! We fail to see why this magnificent coin is not a PR65RB.

Miss Liberty and every detail is sharply struck and stands out nicely. The eye appeal is awesome! PCGS 3, NGC 0, CAC 1.

379 - $1 1871 J-1148 PCGS Secure PR66 RB CAC This masterpiece is an R-7 (4-12 known) example of the Longacres Standard Silver Dollar design struck in copper.

Electric mirrors are ultra deep and have amazing clarity, cleanliness, and incredibly reflectivity. The color scheme is a phenomenal original mix of brown/gold/magenta/neon blue, which swirls wildly on both sides.

LOT - 379 151
380 - 25c 1873 J-1271 PCGS PR65 Cameo CAC This former Simpson coin was from the Greenwich Collection, the #1 PCGS Registry Set. This piece is a high R7 (less than 4-12 known) die trial of the 1873 No Arrows Quarter minted in aluminum. The wild, glassy mirrors have amazing clarity, cleanliness, and blinding reflectivity. For an aluminum planchet, it’s remarkably defect and porosity free. Miss Liberty and the details are thickly frosted and have needle sharp strikes. The eye appeal is jaw dropping! PCGS 1, NGC 0, CAC 1. This coin is the finest graded and last sold for $12,650.00 (11/11 StacksBowers), but in today’s market, this coin is worth a lot more! Good luck! PCGS # 61556.
