*Highlight* NGC 1857 SS Republic Seated Half Dollar Shipwreck Effect 50c NGC (fc)

Lot # 6183 (Sale Order: 280 of 915)      

*Highlight* NGC 1857 SS Republic Shipwreck Effect Seated Half Dollar 50c NGC. In October 1865, six months after the end of the Civil War, the side-wheel steamer SS...more Republic was bound from New York to New Orleans. Aboard the former Civil War blockade ship was precious cargo to aid in the rebuilding of the war-ravaged city of New Orleans to its prewar glory.During and just after the Civil War, in both the North and especially the South, gold and silver coins were valued but extremely scarce commodities. Rampant inflation, caused by both sides financing their huge war costs through the near-nonstop printing of paper currency, resulted in the widespread hoarding of “hard money.” At the end of the war, the South, for all practical purposes, was broke and its paper money was worthless, its hard money virtually gone. The SS Republic was on a mission to restart the Southern economy. Shortly after beginning the archaeological excavation in November 2003, gold coins were discovered at the stern of the ship, near the ship’s rudder. Using a proprietary Sediment Removal and Filtration (SeRF) system on the ROV, sand was carefully removed from the site revealing a dazzling 'carpet of gold' hidden on the ocean floor for nearly 140 years.?More than 51,000 gold and silver coins were recovered from the seabed, including numerous $20.00 Double Eagles, $10.00 Eagles, silver half dollars and even a few silver quarter dollars each coin individually retrieved by the silicone limpet device attached to the ROV’s manipulator arm. All of the coins were professionally conserved by Numismatic Conservation Services (NCS) and graded by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). Unlike other recently salvaged shipwrecks, a wide variety of dates and mints ranging from the 1840s to 1865 were documented in this remarkable hoard including many of the finest-known examples of United States gold and silver coins from the period and highly collectible today.?In addition to its extraordinary cargo of gold coins, the Republic’s treasure yielded some exceptionally unique silver half dollars and provided an unprecedented opportunity for numismatic research.?In 1861, three different governments (the United States Government, the Louisiana government and the Confederacy) had control of the New Orleans Mint and struck silver half dollars there. Due to the large number of 1861-O Liberty Seated half dollars found on the Republic, coin experts were finally able to determine which coins were minted by each government by analyzing the subtle variations caused by the use of different dies. This research was published in the Gobrecht Journal in November 2006 and for the first time ever has allowed 1861-O Seated Liberty half dollars to be certified by Numismatic Guaranty Corporation as being minted by each of the three governments operating in Louisiana in 1861. After thorough documentation and reserving a representative sample for the permanent collection, these historic coins available to collectors as individual coins or in a set representing all three minting governments in the New Orleans Mint Three Government Set.?A full set of 1861-O half dollars containing all 17 die variations is currently on display with 28 other rare coins from the Republic at the Louisiana State Museum located in the old U.S. Mint where the coins were originally minted.?Also aboard the Republic were stunningly preserved silver half dollars struck in the North by the U.S. Philadelphia Mint. These were found on the wreck site laying side by side with equally remarkable silver halves struck in the South’s New Orleans Mint. Together they symbolize the mighty struggle that divided the country in 1865, and today they make up an impressive Civil War Blue & Gray 1861 Half-Dollar Collection.?

*Highlight* 1934 President Grover Cleveland $1000 Green Seal Federal Reserve Note Chicago, IL Grades

Lot # 6198 (Sale Order: 289 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1934 President Grover Cleveland $1000 Green Seal Federal Reserve Note Chicago, IL Grades vf++ FR-2211G (fc). Today it seems that $100 bills disappear from ou...morer wallets as fast as $20 bills used to. But back in 1934, $500 and $1,000 bills were the largest denomination Federal Reserve Notes in circulation. They were used primarily for bank-to-bank transactions, so ordinary folks never saw them, and, even if they had, they couldn't save them. So, when they were withdrawn from circulation years ago, most were destroyed, making them very hard to find today.The $500 Note features William McKinley, and the $1,000 Note shows Grover Cleveland. Series 1934 legal-tender Federal Reserve Notes The 1934 Series saw each of the notes in the $500, $1,000, $5,000, and $10,000 denominations redesigned. The reverse of each note was changed to include simple markings of the face value. While the $5,000 and $10,000 notes retained the images of James Madison and Salmon P. Chase, respectively, on the obverse, the $500 note dropped the image of John Marshall for that of President William McKinley and these $1,000 notes dropped Alexander Hamilton’s effigy for that of President Grover Cleveland.For the obverse design of 1934 $1000 Federal Reserve Notes, the bill features a portrait of President Grover Cleveland in right-profile relief. While this design was new to the 1934 Series $1000 note, it was not new to Federal Reserve Notes on the whole. This same portrait had previously featured on the $20 Federal Reserve Note from 1914 to 1928.On the reverse side of 1934 $1000 Federal Reserve Notes is a simple field with the printed notations of the face value of the bill. These $1000 bills were restricted to bank-to-bank transactions and money transfers between the federal government and banks. When the $1000 Federal Reserve Note was first released, the average American household had an annual income of just over $1,500. In 1934, you could take a two-month European cruise for a $500 bill and get $5 back in change-but it cost $720 to fly round trip across the Atlantic on the Zeppelin Hindenburg!

*Highlight* 1929-p Gold Indian Quarter Eagle Near Top Pop! $2 1/2 ms66 SEGS (fc)

Lot # 6199 (Sale Order: 290 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1929-p Near Top Pop! Gold Indian Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 ms66 SEGS. Per David Akers Of PCGS "This is an unusual issue in that it is easy to find in MS-63 ...moreor lower condition but surprisingly difficult to locate in MS-64 or better grade. Gems are rare without a doubt, considerably more so than any of the other late issues. Why this is so I really have no idea but I can state that I have not seen all that many 1929 quarter eagles that would grade a full MS-65 by today's stringent standards. A few superb, nearly perfect pieces are known but in MS-67 condition, the 1929 is clearly a major rarity.The strike on a typical 1929 is very good although some specimens are not quite as sharp as the several issues immediately preceding this one. Many examples also show obvious signs of die buckling at the borders. Lustre is nearly always very good to excellent and the color is most often a rich yellow gold with a greenish tint.

Lot # 6211 (Sale Order: 297 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1951 TOP POP! Franklin Half Dollar 50c pr68 DCAM SEGS. The Philadelphia Mint struck a small production of 57,500 proof Franklin half dollars for collec...moretors in 1951. Unfortunately, most survivors have shallow mirrors and examples with Deep Cameo contrast are decidedly elusive. Also, the Mint's cellophane packaging was not suitable for long-term storage.This spectacular Superb Gem displays virtually pristine brilliant surfaces throughout. The sharply detailed design elements have a rich coat of mint frost that contrasts profoundly with the deeply mirrored fields to produce a startling cameo effect when the coin is tilted in the light. Eye appeal is outstanding. This coin will be a welcome addition to the finest collection or Registry Set
