1943 PHILIPPINES BOHOL EMERGENCY CERTIFICATE - ISSUED BY EXILED GOVERNMENT

Lot #17 (Sale Order 17 of 434)

On January 9, 1943, resistance officers and provincial officials who have not surrendered established a "free" government with Conrado D. Marapao as Governor. Just prior to the surrender, Philippines President Manuel Quezon had authorized Bohol to issue 150,000 pesos in emergency currency. This authority was the basis for printing currency to finance the free government and the resistance force. In June 1943, radio contact was established with President Quezon who authorized an additional 200,000 pesos, followed by an additional 1,000,000 pesos in September. The printing took place at the Municipality of Carmen. Notes were printed in black on manila paper of varying thickness.

1942 MERCURY DIME - PCGS - PROOF 62 - OLDER HOLDER

Lot #96 (Sale Order 96 of 434)

PCGS must have downgraded this coin due to the haze, because there are virtually no apparent hairlines. This would be a candidate for dipping and resubmission, as it is a nicer coin than the slab indicates. This is an old generation PCGS holder.

1944-S WASHINGTON QUARTER - NEAR GEM BRILLIANT UNC - BETTER DATE

Lot #110 (Sale Order 110 of 434)

1945 WASHINGTON QUARTER - VERY CHOICE BRILLIANT UNC

Lot #111 (Sale Order 111 of 434)

COMPLETE SET OF STATE QUARTERS INCLUDING PROOFS & SILVERS - 1999 - 2008 - 192 COINS TOTAL

Lot #129 (Sale Order 129 of 434)

Proxibid only allows us to post 6 photos, or we would have posted more. This is a HUGE set in two nice Dansco albums. The albums alone cost over $50. Each album has five pages and holds 100 coins. This is a complete set minus the uncirculated P & D quarters for New Mexico, Arizona, Alaska, and Hawaii (total of 8 coins). Those had not been released before the owner decided to sell the set. Note that this set does have the proofs for these final four states. A beautiful set that was put together with love and care.

COMPLETE SET OF WASHINGTON QUARTERS - 1932 to 1998 INCLUDING PROOFS - 186 COINS TOTAL

Lot #130 (Sale Order 130 of 434)

We have seen some Washington quarter sets before, but this is the nicest one we have handled. Obviously put together with great care and attention, each coin is a wonderful example for its year and mintmark. The key 1932-D is an XF with an old light cleaning, lightly toned. The 1932-S is a brilliant AU with a light cleaning. The collection through the mid-1940's is made up of attractive high-grade AU's through very choice uncs. One you get to about 1946, most all are uncirculated (or proof) and are very nice looking examples. 90 of the coins are silver (total of 16.3 troy ounces of pure silver), not to mention the several proofs composed of 40% silver. The set is complete from 1932 through the 1998-S Silver Proof. This set would be difficult and time-consuming to replicate. Don't miss this one ! (Note that Proxibid only allows us to load 6 photos. We would have provided many more if we could.)

Lot #132 (Sale Order 132 of 434)

These come from the same old collection that the earlier uncirculated quarters came from, and we wish we had the time to sell these one by one, as they are extremely nice examples. All are uncirculated averaging choice (MS62 to MS63) quality. Dates include: (3) 1945, (2) 1946, 1946-D, (5) 1946-S, 1947-D, (5) 1947-S, and (3) 1948-S.

Lot #133 (Sale Order 133 of 434)

From the same old collection as the previous lot, all of these are choice or better uncs from the 1950's.

TWENTY (20) UNCIRCULATED SILVER WASHINGTON QUARTERS FROM THE 1960's - ALL CHOICE OR BETTER

Lot #135 (Sale Order 135 of 434)

Our last offering from the same collection that brought you all of the previous uncirculated Washington quarters comes this sheet of 20 choice or better uncs dated in the 1960's.

Lot #143 (Sale Order 143 of 434)

We sent this to ICG on behalf of the consignor due to the missing designer's initials. ICG graded it but failed to denote the error on the slab. Maybe they didn't notice it, but those initials sure look obliterated.

1878-S MORGAN DOLLAR - UNCIRCULATED

1880-CC MORGAN DOLLAR - LOW MINTAGE

1880-S MORGAN DOLLAR - NEAR GEM UNC - STUNNING RAINBOW OBVERSE

Lot #223 (Sale Order 223 of 434)

To call this coin a beauty would be an understatement. There are a couple small hits near the mouth, but overall the surfaces are nearly pristine. And the icing on the cake is the gorgeous rainbow toning. We grade it technically MS64, but it should bring a nice premium for its amazing eye appeal.

1881-CC MORGAN DOLLAR - FITZGERALD CASINO COLLECTION - NGC MS62

Lot #224 (Sale Order 224 of 434)

A scarce date with only 296,000 minted due to the mint's limited operation in 1881. Graded MS62 by NGC, with special notation given on the slab for the Fitzgerald Collection (also known as the 'Fitzgerald Hoard'). It was once owned by Lincoln Fitzgerald, a mobster and gambling pioneer who arrived in Reno in the mid-1940s and opened the Nevada Club. He started out in Detroit, but left after pleading guilty to conspiracy to maintain and operate a gambling resort. In the late 1950s, Fitzgerald bought the Biltmore at North Lake Tahoe and turned it into the Nevada Lodge. In the 1970s, he opened Fitzgerald’s Hotel Casino in downtown Reno. Fitzgerald was shot and almost killed in 1949 when a gunman ambushed him in his garage, shooting him with a sawed-off 12-gauge shotgun. The assailant was never found. Although he eventually recovered from the attack, Fitzgerald became more and more reclusive, seldom venturing from his home or his casino. Fitzgerald died in 1981 at age 88.

1882-CC MORGAN DOLLAR - ANACS MS63 - LOOKS MS64

Lot #230 (Sale Order 230 of 434)

Definitely a resubmission opportunity. This coin is at least MS64, in our opinion, with fantastic luster and gorgeous smooth surfaces. We submitted this to ANACS on behalf of the consignor and were hopeful it would come back MS65. Buy the coin and not the holder ...

1882-S MORGAN DOLLAR - GEM UNC - PRETTY TONING

Lot #236 (Sale Order 236 of 434)

When our consignor said he was sending us a "roll of 82-S dollars", we were expecting to sell them as the intact roll. What we received, however, was a roll of some of the prettiest choice to gem dollars you've seen. We decided to break up the roll and sell the absolute best examples individually and the rest - which are also extremely nice - in small groups. The next several lots are the best of the best from this roll. Leading off is this gorgeous toned gem that is pristine and original. We call this one a gem MS65.

Lot #252 (Sale Order 252 of 434)

One of the Hot 50 VAMs, there is a die clash on the reverse and, when held properly to the light, you can see part of an E. We had great difficulty capturing the die clash in a photo, so we had to resort to a stock photo, but rest assured that the die clash is there and evident when held properly. So denoted on the ANACS holder, in which this coin is graded MS62.

1883-O MORGAN DOLLAR - ANACS MS64 - NEAR PRISTINE

Lot #253 (Sale Order 253 of 434)

1883-O MORGAN DOLLAR - VAM 17 "LOW 3" VARIETY

Lot #254 (Sale Order 254 of 434)

The 3 in the date was punched too low, thus the VAM 17. The dollar is a nice AU.

1883-O/O MORGAN DOLLAR - VAM 5 - NEAR UNC

Lot #255 (Sale Order 255 of 434)

VAM 5 repunched mintmark (see inset photo). The amount of circulation on the coin itself could probably be measured in hours, as it is so very close to uncirculated.

1883-S MORGAN DOLLAR - BETTER DATE - AU

Lot #256 (Sale Order 256 of 434)

A much better date that saw much of its population melted under the 1918 Pittman Act. This date gets very expensive quickly, and this is a nice example.

Lot #272 (Sale Order 272 of 434)

A high-end example for the grade. This is a scarce date as only 657,000 were minted and many later melted. NGC has graded it MS64. Not noted on the slab is that this is also a VAM 2 with the mintmark strongly doubled.

Lot #278 (Sale Order 278 of 434)

1890-S MORGAN DOLLAR - VERY CHOICE UNC WITH REFLECTIVE SURFACES

1891 MORGAN DOLLAR - CHOICE BRILLIANT UNC - BETTER DATE

Lot #287 (Sale Order 287 of 434)

Much better date with only 1.2 million minted and many later melted. This coin was submitted for our consignor to ANACS, who graded it conservatively as VF25, although it looks exactly the same as the next coin.

1892-S MORGAN DOLLAR - ANACS VF35 - TOUGH DATE

Lot #288 (Sale Order 288 of 434)

Much better date coin that was submitted for our consignor to ANACS, who graded it VF35 (almost XF).

1893 MORGAN DOLLAR - XF - VAM 2 DOUBLED DATE

Lot #289 (Sale Order 289 of 434)

One of the keys, with a tiny mintage of 378,000. This is a nice example and is a VAM 2 evidenced by the doubling at the top of the 3 in the date. Attractive coin.

1893-O MORGAN DOLLAR - LOW MINTAGE KEY DATE - VF

Lot #290 (Sale Order 290 of 434)

Even scarcer than the 1893 is the 1893-O, with only 300,000 minted. A nice very fine example with a medium grey tone.

1894-O MORGAN DOLLAR - ANACS AU55 - MUCH BETTER DATE

Lot #291 (Sale Order 291 of 434)

This is a date that gets expensive quickly. This example was graded AU55 by ANACS. Very nice surfaces for a lightly circulated coin.

1894-S MORGAN DOLLAR - KEY DATE - UNCIRCULATED?

Lot #292 (Sale Order 292 of 434)

Another very tough date that gets expensive in a hurry. There are lots of bag & reeding marks, but it is very hard to discern wear. We're going to call it near-uncirculated due to some light friction on the eyebrow, but a grading firm might market grade it as uncirculated. Certainly worth a personal inspection.

1895-O MORGAN DOLLAR - KEY DATE - PCI VG8

Lot #293 (Sale Order 293 of 434)

One of the keys that everybody needs in their collection. This is a decent example that PCI graded as Very Good. Only 450,000 were minted.

1895-O MORGAN DOLLAR - KEY DATE - VF/XF

Lot #294 (Sale Order 294 of 434)

Attractive example of this key date. We grade it VF/XF (call it VF30). Very nice for the grade.

1896-O MORGAN DOLLAR - BETTER DATE - VERY NICE NEAR-UNCIRCULATED

Lot #295 (Sale Order 295 of 434)

A very nice coin with some underlying luster. Very very nearly uncirculated. We compared it with lot 291 and found it to have slightly less wear, so we're calling this an AU58. A very attractive example of this much better date Morgan.

1896-S MORGAN DOLLAR - ANACS VF35 - SCARCE DATE

Lot #296 (Sale Order 296 of 434)

Tough date that gets expensive quickly. Submitted to ANACS on behalf of our consignor, we expected this to come back XF, but ANACS decided to call it a VF35. It's certainly closer to XF than a VF.

1899 MORGAN DOLLAR - KEY DATE - NGC MS63

Lot #301 (Sale Order 301 of 434)

1901 MORGAN DOLLAR - BETTER DATE - VAM 6 "2 OLIVE REVERSE" - VF/XF

Lot #305 (Sale Order 305 of 434)

Light grey toning. Grades between VF and XF (VF30). This is the VAM 6 with the 2 Olive reverse (extra olive to the right of the olive on the branch left of the eagle). A very tough date.

1901 MORGAN DOLLAR - BETTER DATE - VF

Lot #306 (Sale Order 306 of 434)

1901-S MORGAN DOLLAR - KEY DATE - XF

This is a key date that starts expensive even in low grades. This coin is on the top end of the scale. Absolutely a jaw-dropping Morgan with pristine surfaces and blazing luster. The consignor states that this coin was removed from an NGC MS66 slab to be placed in a Dansco album. Lightly toned around the peripheries. An absolutely gorgeous example of this key date.

1903-S MORGAN DOLLAR - BETTER DATE - VG

Lot #309 (Sale Order 309 of 434)

Original-looking well circulated example of this key date.

1904-O MORGAN DOLLAR - VERY CHOICE BRILLIANT UNC

Lot #311 (Sale Order 311 of 434)

Very nice surfaces merit the MS64 grade assigned by ANACS. Also denoted as a Breen-5705, which is the scarce 16 Berry reverse (missing a berry), also known as a VAM 3.

1921 MORGAN DOLLAR - LIGHTLY TONED VERY CHOICE UNC

Lot #312 (Sale Order 312 of 434)

Light milky toning. Choice surfaces. We grade it MS63.

Remember the roll of 1882-S dollars we talked about at Lot 236? We are now selling the rest of that roll. These coins are very beautiful and choice, too, but we simply did not have the time to sell each one individually.

Lot #339 (Sale Order 339 of 434)

Nice Indian Head quarter eagle from a local estate. These can be tricky to grade, but there is the slighest amount of friction that we call it an AU58.

Lot #340 (Sale Order 340 of 434)

1909-D Indian Head half eagle in a 14k gold bezel on a 14k gold chain. Note that the coin "floats" in the bezel and is NOT soldered or hard-mounted. It should be easily removed by a jeweler without damaging the coin. The coin itself is a nice XF/AU. It has been cleaned, as expected, but it does not have the polished mirrored look that you so often see. The coin (90% gold) weighs .2687 troy ounces and contains .24187 troy ounces of pure gold. The bezel (14k gold) weighs .0813 troy ounces and contains .0474 troy ounces of pure gold. The chain (14k gold) weighs .690 troy ounces and contains .4025 troy ounces of pure gold.

1908 ST. GAUDENS $20 GOLD PIECE - LUSTROUS UNCIRCULATED

Lot #341 (Sale Order 341 of 434)

From the same local estate that brought us the previous gold pieces, comes a couple of really nice St. Gauden's double eagles. The first is a brilliant 1908, beautiful, lustrous and well-struck. The grading companies are pretty hard on gold, so we expect they'd call this one MS62 or so.

1924 ST. GAUDENS $20 GOLD PIECE - ATTRACTIVE UNCIRCULATED

Lot #342 (Sale Order 342 of 434)

A beautiful double eagle with very nice surfaces and no harsh or distracting marks. A dark streak of foreign debris on the reverse should be easily removable. Quite a nice coin. Looks MS63.

1997 FDR $5 GOLD - NGC MS69 - LOW MINTAGE - VERY SCARCE

2002 SALT LAKE CITY WINTER OLYMPICS $5 GOLD - PCGS MS69 - LOW MINTAGE

Lot #356 (Sale Order 356 of 434)

Some people get confused by this coin, as it is listed in the Greysheet as 2002 Winter Olympic Games, while the Red Book and others refer to it as the Salt Lake City Olympic Games $5 gold piece. In any case, it is a very low mintage issue and carries a strong premium as such. Only 10,585 mint state coins were produced. This beauty was graded MS69 by PCGS and is absolutely gorgeous with slightly darker golden tone around the edges. A really stunning coin.

2007 ABIGAIL ADAMS $10 GOLD PIECE - 1/2 TROY OUNCE - NGC MS69

Lot #361 (Sale Order 361 of 434)

Beautiful coin that contains exactly one-half ounce of pure 24 karat gold. Graded MS69 by NGC. Mintage was limited to 40,000 between mint state and proof coins, and we know that proofs typically outsell the mint state coins by a long margin. Assuming a mintage of 10k to 15k, far fewer exist as many people sold them for scrap to be melted when gold prices spiked. Probably a good investment once actual mintage figures are released.

2007 ABIGAIL ADAMS $10 GOLD PIECE - 1/2 TROY OUNCE - UNC IN ORIGINAL MINT PACKAGING

Lot #362 (Sale Order 362 of 434)

Just like the previous coin, except this one comes in its original mint packaging with paperwork, including the stunning wooden display box. Contains exactly one-half ounce of pure 24 karat gold.

2007 JEFFERSON'S LIBERTY $10 GOLD PIECE - 1/2 TROY OUNCE - NGC MS69

Lot #363 (Sale Order 363 of 434)

This is a coin that has commanded a premium in the marketplace since it was issued. Perhaps its the throwback Draped Bust design (modeled after the Draped Bust half cent), or perhaps the very low mintage (limited to 20,000 mint state coins). Either way, it's a beauty. Composed of one-half ounce of pure 24 karat gold, this example was graded MS69 by NGC.

2007 MARTHA WASHINGTON $10 GOLD PIECE - 1/2 TROY OUNCE - PCGS MS69

Lot #364 (Sale Order 364 of 434)

Beautiful coin that contains exactly one-half ounce of pure 24 karat gold. Graded MS69 by PCGS. Mintage was limited to 40,000 total between mint state and proof coins. Many have been melted because of the high gold prices.

1981 CANADA $100 GOLD - O CANADA NATIONAL ANTHEM - BEAUTIFUL PROOF

1984 WESTERN SAMOA 100 TALA GOLD PROOF - OLYMPICS BOXING - IN ORIGINAL BOX - ONLY 500 MINTED

Lot #369 (Sale Order 369 of 434)

We had difficulty finding information about this coin until we learned that this little island in the Pacific changed its name to Samoa (or the Independent State of Samoa) a few years ago. A very nice coin commemorating the 1984 Los Angeles Summer Olympic boxing games. Incredibly LOW mintage of only 500. Apparently, they didn't expect to sell many of them. It would be interesting to learn how many were sold and how many went unsold and were melted. Composed of 22 karat gold and contains .2211 troy ounces of pure gold. Comes in its original box. Here is your chance to be the only person in town to own one !

1987 CHINA GOLD 25 YUAN PANDA - 1/4 TROY OUNCE - ANACS MS68
