FR-258 The Series 1899 $2 Silver Certificate is notable not only for being t...morehe last $2 silver certificate series printed, but also because it is the only $2 bill to feature a portrait of George Washington instead of the more common Thomas Jefferson image. Because Washington’s portrait on the bill’s face is small and surrounded by an oval frame resembling a ship’s porthole, collectors have named it the “Mini-Porthole” bill.

*EXCLUSIVE* x10 Morgan Covered End Roll! Marked "Unc Morgan Premium"! - Huge Vault Hoard (FC)

Lot # 6768 (Sale Order: 657 of 915)      

*EXCLUSIVE* x10 Morgan Covered End Roll! Marked "Unc Morgan Premium"! - Huge Vault Hoard (FC). Up for auction is a (10 coin roll marked “Unc Morgan Premium” and h...moreaving two covered ends and weighing 270.2g), 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.

*Highlight* 1909-p Gold Indian Quarter Eagle Near Top Pop! $2 1/2 GEM+ Unc USCG (fc)

Lot # 6775 (Sale Order: 662 of 915)      

*Highlight* 1909-p Near Top Pop! Gold Indian Quarter Eagle $2 1/2 GEM+ Unc USCG. The sunken relief of Bela Lyon Pratt's Indian quarter eagle design was a first on ...morecirculating U.S. coinage. The design lacked a protective rim, leaving the fields exposed to easy abrasion. Soon after the Indian quarter eagle's debut in 1908, the coins became little used in commerce and spent a large portion of their existence in bank vaults or cash drawers, receiving regular coin-to-coin contact. The slightest friction between two Indian quarter eagles could impart surface grazes and hairline scratches that today would limit a grade to no better than MS64. At the MS66 level, even the most plentiful Indian quarter eagle issues become condition rarities, save for the 1908, which was saved in quantity as a first-year novelty. The 1909 is rare in MS66 and not a single coin is known in MS67.r.This coin displays satiny straw-gold luster that appears pristine under magnification. Razor-sharp detail in the headdress feathers and the eagle's wing complements the luminous glow from the recesses. Eye appeal is outstanding for a 1909. A The importance of this top-grade 1909 is exceptional A Key Date's Pick, Bid to Win, Don't let it get Away, you might not find its equal Coin

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

Lot # 6782 (Sale Order: 666 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

Lot # 6786 (Sale Order: 668 of 915)      

1899 "Black Eagle" $1 large size Blue Seal Silver Certificate Grades Select AU Signatures Elliott/White. FR-235 Ranked #16 in the 100 Greatest American Currency Notes, t...morehe Series 1899 Black Eagle note is from an era when paper money was backed by precious silver, as the issue bears the statement ONE SILVER DOLLAR PAYABLE TO THE BEARER ON DEMAND. It doesn’t take much work to figure out the nickname of the 1899 $1 silver certificate. A quick glance shows three vignettes, an eagle, Ulysses S Grant, and Abraham Lincoln. Somewhere along the way the collecting world decided that this note should be called a “black eagle.” The name has stuck. Whether you have been collected for a week or your entire life, you certainly know what a black eagle is. Grant and Lincoln often get overlooked. That might be for the best since both men are closely associated with several other large size pieces of currency. There are 12 Different Signatures combinations For this Type of note

1899 Oncpapa Indian Chief $5 Large Size Silver Certificate Grades f+ Signatures Elliott/Burke

Lot # 6794 (Sale Order: 674 of 915)      

1899 Oncpapa Indian Chief $5 Large Size Silver Certificate Grades f+ Signatures Elliott/Burke. FR-279The five dollar silver certificate has always been one of the most ...morepopular denominations to collect.  There are several different design types, all of which are quite popular. The 1899 $5 silver certificate is especially popular. The powerful engraving of Running Antelope, Chief of the Oncpapa (Hunkpapa) Lakota Sioux is featured on this large-sized $5 currency note from 1899. This is the first – and only – time a Native American image was used as the central motif on any U.S. paper currency. The central vignette of Running Antelope is highlighted by the bright vibrant blue seal and “V” denoting its denomination. The note caused some ill will among the tribes of the Great Plains when it was issued as it depicted Running Antelope as a chief wearing a Pawnee headdress as the original Lakota headdress was too tall for the engraving. Apparently the engravers at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing weren’t aware that the Lakota and Pawnee were mortal enemies on the Great Plains! Known as Ta-to-ka-in-yan-ka in Lakota, Running Antelope was a close advisor to the great Sitting Bull. As one of four principal “shirt wearers” or chiefs during the Plains Indians Wars, he eventually had a falling out with Sitting Bull because Running Antelope believed that compromise was in his people’s best interests. Certainly one of the most popular currency notes of all time, this note blends United States history and beautiful artwork to form a uniquely American artifact from the turn of the century. While millions of these notes were printed, very few survive today. The 1899 Series $5 Oncpapa Indian Chief Silver Certificate is a must-have for any collector
