NEW! *Watchmaker’s Hoard* Original Covered End Nathans Mixed Lincoln Wheat Cent Roll 1c 50 Coins 190

Lot # 5913 (Sale Order: 109 of 915)      

NEW! *Watchmaker’s Hoard* Original Covered End Nathans Mixed Lincoln Wheat Cent Roll 1c 50 Coins 1909-1958 Some BU WOW!. It has been hard to find a wheat hoard as ...morefantastic as "The McDonald's Hoard." I have found several hoards of wheats, but after opening a dozen rolls, all I saw was a bunch of junk. Based on about 4-5 offered consignments, I found that if the rolls appeared to have great dates in them, the rest of the roll was terrible.When I was in Long Island about three weeks ago, I asked the very stoic guys who had given us the exclusive on "The Long Island Hoard" if they knew of anyone who might have any large groupings of wheats. They barely replied, merely shaking their heads to indicate no. About a week had passed, and I had forgotten that I had even inquired, when I got a call from their very stern secretary advising me that “They think I should call ‘The Watchmaker.’” Long story short, "The Watchmaker" had invited me up to his very large home in Providence, Rhode Island. As I pulled up, I saw that his house was a cross between "The Addams Family" mansion and the house from Hitchcock’s "Psycho," and once again, I had that same very uncomfortable feeling that I had at the first meeting with the Long Island guys.Anyway, I made my way up the very steep stairs and rang the ancient bell. "The Watchmaker," a hunched-over, very old man, welcomed me inside. The first thing I noticed was the electrical system in the house was the old style, knob and tube, where you pressed little buttons. I was both fascinated and a little creeped out. I followed him down a long hallway past what seemed like countless rooms until finally, he led us into the dining room with a long oak table that had 9 large tubs filled with rolled coins. Just like that, this meeting was sprucing up. Inside the tubs, I found mini hoards of coins. There was a Coca-Cola batch, a Nathan’s batch, a Mills Novelty Company batch (one I had never seen), and a Gimbels and Korvettes grouping, a smaller batch of Radio Shack and TRS-80 ones, and those were just the ones I could reach at the top of the tubs. As we made small talk, he allowed me to open about a dozen rolls that I picked at random from the tubs, and each roll had me internally smiling wider and wider. After what seemed like a blink of an eye, as I was trying to mask my excitement, we finally came to an agreement on the rolls. As I thanked "The Watchmaker" and prepared to leave, he inquired, "Wasn’t I taking the pennies?" I chuckled and gestured to the huge flight of stairs and said, "Not with my balance." I explained to him that one of our runners would be by to pick them up in a day or two.I gave the boys double time to pick up "The Watchmaker’s Hoard." You might think the tale ends there, but let me give you the epilogue. Not 20 minutes into my drive home, I got a call from none other than the Long Island guys' stern secretary. I said hello, and she quickly launched into telling me that the guys were pleased that the deal went well and that I got the consignment. I was dumbfounded how they knew so quickly. She continued today’s soliloquy by advising, not asking or requesting, but advising me that the guys would be paid $2 a roll on top of what I had negotiated with "The Watchmaker" as a finder’s fee. And then she hung up.And now I am proud to present "The Watchmaker's Hoard" of wheat cents. I found lots of teens, lots of mint marks, 20’s, 30’s, and a few uncirculated red ones from the 40’s and 50’s. I found no Flying Eagles, and no Indians in the dozen I opened. Good luck, and I hope you will have many hours of fun, or buy a spare roll and keep it unopened. Get one of each; it’s a great hoard.Best, Corey

*Highlight* 1891 "Windom Note" $2 Large Size Silver Certificate Treasurer William Windom Grades vf+

Lot # 5914 (Sale Order: 110 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1891 "Windom Note" $2 Large Size Silver Certificate Treasurer William Windom Grades vf+ Signatures Tillman/Morgan (fc). FR-246 Most collectors refer to 1891...more $2 silver certificates as Windoms or a Windom; Windom being the man pictured on the 1891 $2 bill. William Windom was the 33rd treasurer of the United States. He was also a famous politician who served the state of Minnesota. He only appeared on paper money for one year. So when you say Windom it won’t get confused with any other issues. It is interesting to note that for some reason the 1891 $2 silver certificate is a complete redesign from the 1886 series. One, five, ten, and twenty dollar silver certificates that were printed in 1891 all have the same design as the same denominations from 1886. However, the 1886 $2 silver certificate features a portrait of Winfield Scott Hancock and the 1891 $2 bill has a portrait of William Windom. William Windom died in 1891. So I guess it was decided that in order to honor him they would kick Hancock off the two dollar bill and put Windom up instead. It is amazing how fast the government used to move back then. There were only four different two dollar silver certificates printed by The United States. These were issued between 1886 and 1899. The two dollar bill we are looking at here is from the series of 1891. It was printed during a time when paper money was about 40% larger than it is today. Fortunately for collectors there are virtually no fakes, counterfeits, or reproductions from this time period. If you find a $2 bill from 1891 there is an extremely high likelihood that it is authentic and collectible.

*Highlight* 1880 $1 Red Seal United States Note Grades xf Signatures Bruce/Gilfillan (fc)

Lot # 5922 (Sale Order: 116 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1880 $1 Red Seal United States Note Grades xf Signatures Bruce/Gilfillan (fc). Signatures of Bruce and Gilfillan. This Note may look like the much more comm...moreon legal tender note of 1917 but it is much more rare and sought after being released almost 30 years earlier. The Main way to tell the difference is by the date & the large red seal on the right hand side of this note. The 1917 $1 Legal Tender Notes have a much smaller seal and its on the left side of the note instead of the right. This 1880 $1 Legal Tender Note Was the last Legal Tender Note of the 19th Century to be issued . It's referred to as a "Horseblanket Note," due to their large size. The obverse features Washington and a vignette of Columbus sighting America. The reverse shows a "sawhorse" design. Add in the bright red seal and serial numbers and you've got a miniature work of art. These notes are usually found in low vf grades or lower. Finding higher grade ones can be a challenge

*EXCLUSIVE* x10 Morgan Covered End Roll! Marked "Unc Morgan Reserve"! - Huge Vault Hoard (FC). Up for auction is a (10 coin roll marked “Unc Morgan Reserve” and h...moreaving two covered ends and weighing 270.4g), one roll amongst the 2700+ roll hoard which after seeing it can only be described as the Long Island Vault Hoard. Inside the vault are hundreds upon hundreds of dollar rolls. Some are 10 coin rolls some are 20, most are hand marked as to what’s inside and most have covered ends. We have opened about 20 of the rolls and have not found any that were mismarked. The vault at one point I believe had the rolls separated into three sections. The markings standard, premium, limited were marked on the sections. Additionally there was a small safe inside the vault marked “Reserve”. But when we first the saw the hoard, the sections were empty as was the small safe. It appeared that at some point the rolls were all put into canvas bank bags, which bags were all lying on the floor of the vault. The agreement with for the Consignee is that we wire on Friday their portion of the funds for any rolls paid that week and on Mondays we will send our runner up to Long Island to retrieve the rolls for shipment that week from our offices as well as photographing the rolls for the next weeks auction. We hope you enjoy these rolls as much as we have bringing them to you.
