The January 2013 Collector’s Series Sale<br />

Terms and Conditions of Sale<br />

www.<strong>Spink</strong>.com<br />

This is a public auction and mail-bid sale held by SPINK, who are licensed and bonded auctioneers.<br />

SPINK may not withdraw any lot after a call for bids has been made with respect to that lot, however, the<br />

consignor of the property included in the lot (or any other lot) may bid on and purchase the lot for his/her own<br />

account. If he/she does so, he/she must pay both the seller’s commission and buyer’s premium.<br />

1. The placing of a bid constitutes full acceptance of these<br />

Terms and Conditions of Sale by the bidder.<br />

2. The highest bidder acknowledged by SPINK shall be the<br />

buyer. In the event of any dispute between bidders, SPINK<br />

may, at its sole discretion, immediately put the lot up for sale<br />

again. SPINK’S decision shall be final and binding upon all<br />

bidders. A buyer’s premium equal to 20% of the successful<br />

bid price of each lot up to and including $2,000.00 and 15%<br />

of the excess bid price will be added to each invoice and is<br />

payable by the buyer as part of the total purchase price.<br />

3. All bids are to be per lot as numbered in this catalog. SPINK<br />

reserves the right to group two or more lots together and to<br />

withdraw, prior to call for bids, any lot(s) from the sale. Bids<br />

will be accepted in whole dollar amounts only, and SPINK<br />

reserves the right to reject any bid or advance the bidding at<br />

its discretion.<br />

4. SPINK may not withdraw any lot after a call for bids has been<br />

made with respect to that lot, however, the consignor of the<br />

property included in the lot (or any other lot) may bid on<br />

and purchase the lot for his/her own account. If he/she does<br />

so, he/she must pay both the seller’s commission and buyer’s<br />

premium.<br />

5. SPINK may have made advances and loans available to<br />

certain consignors and bidders in the sale. SPINK reserves<br />

the right to bid on any lot in the sale. Additionally, SPINK<br />

may or may not have financial interest in any of the lot(s) in<br />

the sale.<br />

6. All sales are strictly for cash, check and bank/wire transfer in<br />

United States dollars; However, SPINK will only accept cash<br />

payments under $10,000.00. SPINK offers clients the option<br />

of paying by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, and American<br />

Express only) in United States Dollars for a convenience<br />

charge of two percent (2%) for Visa and MasterCard and four<br />

percent (4%) for American Express, up to a total of<br />

$30,000.00. Credit card payments will only be accepted if (a)<br />

the purchase is made by the card holder, (b) any purchased<br />

items to be shipped are shipped to the cardholder’s verified<br />

billing address, (c) floor bidders present their credit cards and<br />

(d) all returns are governed by the terms and conditions of<br />

the sale. Payment is due and payable immediately upon<br />

receipt of the auction invoice or, if payment is to be made at<br />

the auction site, simultaneously with receipt of the purchased<br />

items. SPINK reserves the right to void a sale if payment in<br />

full of the invoice is not received by SPINK within fifteen<br />

(15) days of the date of invoice. A late charge in the amount<br />

of the lesser of 18% per annum and the maximum lawful rate<br />

will be charged on the invoice total if payment is not received<br />

within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice. All lots are<br />

subject to applicable state and local taxes, unless appropriate<br />

resale certificates are on file with SPINK.<br />

7. Shipping, handling and administration charges will be added<br />

to invoices for lots delivered by mail. All lots will be shipped<br />

via U.S. Express Mail to Post Office boxes, via Federal<br />

Express to street addresses, and FedEx ground for bulky large<br />

lots (in the U.S. only). Purchases shipped via FedEx will not<br />

be covered by SPINK insurance in the event that the buyer<br />

has placed a “signature release” on file with FedEx. Buyer will<br />

be responsible for total purchase price in the event of loss.<br />

SPINK cannot be and is not responsible for the loss of any<br />

merchandise shipped outside the United States and therefore<br />

insurance on any items to be shipped outside the United<br />

States is solely the responsibility of the buyer. It is also the<br />

responsibility of the buyer to provide adequate insurance<br />

coverage for the items once they are in his/her possession.<br />

Risk of loss shall be borne by the buyer following shipment<br />

of the items and SPINK assumes no liability for merchandise<br />

lost, stolen or damaged while in the possession of a party to<br />

whom merchandise has been shipped. For international<br />

shipments, all duties/taxes/fees are the sole responsibility of<br />

the buyer.<br />

8. In the event a successful bidder fails to pay the charges due,<br />

SPINK reserves the right to resell the merchandise and the<br />

buyer agrees to pay for the reasonable cost of such a sale<br />

including a 10% seller’s commission, and also to pay any<br />

difference between the resale price and the winning price of<br />

his/her previously successful bid.<br />

9. SPINK reserves the right to require payment in full before<br />

delivery of the merchandise to the buyer. Bidder personally<br />

guarantees payment, and if a corporation, an officer or<br />

principal in the corporation agrees to personally guarantee<br />

payment. Title to any purchased items remains with SPINK<br />

until all invoices are paid in full. SPINK reserves the right to<br />

await clearance of any check used for payment before<br />

delivery of any item and a $25.00 charge will be applied for<br />

any check that fails to clear.<br />

10. SPINK reserves the right to refuse to honor or reject any bid<br />

which, in its opinion, is not submitted in good faith, or,<br />

as the case dictates, is not supported by satisfactory<br />

references, as SPINK in its sole discretion shall determine.<br />

SPINK further reserves the right to ban any bidder from<br />

participation in its sales for any reason deemed appropriate in<br />

its sole discretion.<br />

11. No minors may participate in any SPINK sales.<br />

12. Bids will be executed for mail bidders at one advance over the<br />

next highest bid in competition with floor and/or internet<br />

bidders, until the maximum bid is executed for the mail<br />

bidder, or until the lot is sold. No buy or unlimited bids will<br />

be accepted. No additional commission (except for the<br />

buyer’s premium) is charged for executing mail bids. SPINK<br />

cannot and does not assume any responsibility for errors<br />

made in the amount bid or lot numbers listed, so check your<br />

bid sheet and online submission carefully. When identical<br />

mail bids are submitted, preference is given to the first<br />

received.<br />

13. SPINK may reopen the bidding on a lot under the<br />

following circumstances: (a) SPINK has failed to execute correctly<br />

a mail bid; (b) A party purchasing the lot on the floor<br />

has done so in error; (c) Where a protest is made after the


January 15-16, 2013 - New York, NY<br />

hammer has fallen but before bidding has commenced on the<br />

next lot; (d) Where the auctioneer has determined that<br />

he/she has overlooked a party still bidding on the<br />

lot but before the calling of the next lot; and (e) At the<br />

discretion of the auctioneer. In the event of a dispute, the<br />

auctioneer’s decision shall be final.<br />

14. Agents executing bids on behalf of clients will be held<br />

responsible for all purchases made on behalf of clients unless<br />

otherwise arranged prior to the sale.<br />

15. The same protections applicable to SPINK shall apply to<br />

each officer, director and employee of SPINK unless such<br />

individual shall be convicted of knowingly and intentionally<br />

selling false or stolen goods.<br />

16. The descriptions provided in the catalog are intended<br />

solely for the use of those bidders who do not have<br />

the opportunity to view the lots prior to bidding. All<br />

photographs in the catalog are as accurate as can be<br />

reproduced with today’s technology; however, they cannot<br />

be relied upon for exact reproduction of color. All bidders<br />

who have inspected the lots prior to the auction will not<br />

be granted any return privileges, except for reasons of<br />

genuineness. It is presumed that all floor bidders have<br />

inspected the lots prior to bidding. Therefore, lots purchased<br />

by floor bidders are sold “AS IS” and may not be returned.<br />

Floor Bidders include those bidders acting as agents for<br />

others. Additionally, SPINK reserves the right to describe<br />

items differently than the descriptions shown in the catalog<br />

should such items be consigned to any future auction.<br />

17. All the lots are sold as genuine. For the purpose of this sale,<br />

“genuine” is defined as not faked or forged and SPINK will<br />

not knowingly sell any item that has been “repaired’,<br />

“restored”, “processed”, “cleaned”, “pressed” or “conserved”<br />

in any way without disclosure of such facts to the potential<br />

buyer.<br />

18. The following conditions apply to requests for expertization<br />

of philatelic items: (a) Mail bidders are asked to advise<br />

SPINK of any extension requests at the time of placing their<br />

bids; (b) Floor bidders must advise SPINK of any extensions<br />

in writing at the time of lot settlement; (c) SPINK will<br />

submit all items so requested by successful bidders to the<br />

reputable authority of their choice; For United States stamps,<br />

the Philatelic Foundation and the Professional Stamp Experts<br />

are the accepted authorities. (d) Purchasers of items<br />

submitted for expertization must pay as part of the purchase<br />

price all charges for expertization, including postage and<br />

handling; (e) Purchasers of items to be expertized must<br />

make payment in full immediately upon purchase prior to<br />

expertizing; Refunds will be made promptly for all sums<br />

if in the unlikely event an item is returned with a negative<br />

opinion; (f) Requests for expertization of stamps with<br />

certificates dated within the last five (5) years of the sale date<br />

will not be granted; (g) No lot may be returned due to a<br />

certification service grading a stamp differently than the<br />

grade stated in the auction description; (h) No lot will<br />

be accepted as a return from expertization if the item is<br />

indelibly marked as being altered or fraudulent by the<br />

expertizing authority; and (i) No lot will be accepted as a<br />

return, for any reason whatsoever, including extension<br />

returns, after four (4) months from the sale date. Any<br />

exceptions to this time limitation must be agreed to in<br />

writing at SPINK sole discretion.<br />

19. No lots may be returned without a written request by the<br />

successful bidder and the written approval of SPINK. In the<br />

unlikely event of returning a lot, SPINK must receive<br />

notification of the buyer’s intent within three (3) days of the<br />

buyer’s receipt of the lot. The following lots may not be<br />

returned for any reason whatsoever: (a) lots containing ten or<br />

more items; (b) lots described as having faults or defects<br />

because of the faults described or any others, including lots<br />

described as “repaired”, “corroded”, “holed”, “whizzed”, or<br />

similar damage, except for non-authenticity; (c) illustrated<br />

lots because of centering, margins, etc. or other factors<br />

shown in the illustrations; (d) lots described “AS IS”,<br />

including third party graded coins or banknotes (i.e. PCGS,<br />

NGC, ANACS, ICG); (e) lots valued primarily for the<br />

bullion content; (f) lots examined by postal viewers; and<br />

(g) any philatelic extension lot unless the conditions set forth<br />

in Item 18 above is complied with fully. Except for lots placed<br />

on extension, as per the conditions of Item 18 above, no lots<br />

may be returned for any reason whatsoever after thirty (30)<br />

days from sale date. Late payment for purchase may,<br />

at SPINK option, be considered just cause to revoke all<br />

return privileges. If any disputes arise regarding payment,<br />

authenticity, or description between the bidder and SPINK,<br />

SPINK at its sole discretion, may submit the disputed matter<br />

to binding arbitration in Dallas, Texas, to which the bidder,<br />

by placing a bid and hereby accepting these Terms and<br />

Conditions of Sale, agrees to be bound.<br />

20. United States coins and currency will not, in conformity with<br />

the law, be opened at less than face value.<br />

21. The auctioneer reserves the right to postpone the sale by<br />

auction for a reasonable period of time as a result of<br />

any significant event which, in the sole discretion of the<br />

auctioneer, makes it advisable to postpone the event. No<br />

prospective bidder or prospective buyer shall have recourse as<br />

a result of any postponement<br />

22. In the event SPINK refers an invoice(s) to an attorney for<br />

collection, the buyer agrees to pay SPINK attorney’s fees,<br />

court costs, witness fees and other costs incurred by SPINK.<br />

23. THESE TERMS OF SALE SHALL BE GOVERNED<br />

BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE<br />

LAWS OF THE STATE OF TEXAS, WITHOUT GIVING<br />

REGARD TO THE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF<br />

LAW. THE SIGNER OF A SPINK BID SHEET OR<br />

PARTICIPANT IN THE AUCTION AGREES THAT<br />

EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH<br />

RESPECT TO THESE TERMS OR IN CONNECTION<br />

WITH SPINK SHALL RESIDE INA STATE OR<br />

FEDERAL COURT LOCATED IN DALLAS, TEXAS.<br />

24. On-line Bidding — SPINK offers internet services as<br />

a convenience to our clients, but SPINK will not be<br />

responsible for errors or failures to execute bids placed on the<br />

internet, including, without limitation, errors or failures<br />

a reference collection of U.S. rails. Most have no dates,<br />

but from the certificate designs, many are from the<br />

1880s and 1890s. Many scarcer railroads, impossible<br />

neutral background. Perhaps $1000 or more at retail.<br />

be carefully examined. Roughly 72 bonds, 143 shares.<br />

who invented modern baseball. Cartwright and the<br />

members of his New York Knickerbocker Base Ball Club,<br />

devised the rules and regulations for the modern game of<br />

baseball. The first recorded baseball game was played in<br />

1846 when Cartwright’s Knickerbockers lost to the New<br />

York Baseball Club. The game was played at the Elysian<br />

Fields in Hoboken, New Jersey. Cartwright later went to<br />

the goldfields of California and later headed for<br />

Hawaii, where he would eventually become a wealthy<br />

merchant. He took his bats and balls with him and continued<br />

to promote and play baseball wherever he went.<br />

design elements. Unissued remainder sheet. Almost<br />

Uncirculated.<br />

The owners of the circus wanted to create spectacular<br />

certificates, but the practical cost of producing circus<br />

art on a multicolored engraved certificate was extravagant.<br />

A compromise was reached. American Bank<br />

Note Company supplied the engraved frames, and the<br />

circus provided the lithographed artwork. The resulting<br />

certificates were so attractive that when the company<br />

was sold to Mattel, many shareholders refused<br />

to give up their circus certificates.<br />

Uncut sheets of ABN certificates of any kind are rarely<br />

encountered. The fact that this sheet consists of four<br />

blue Ringling Brothers share certificates makes it even<br />

more compelling. (photo) Est. 500-1,000<br />

Rockefeller. Signed as Secretary by Henry M. Flagler.<br />

Crisp signatures, light roller cancellations instead<br />

of the more obtrusive pen cancellations often encountered.<br />

VF+.<br />

In an effort to bypass certain governmental pressures<br />

concerning the alleged monopolistic powers of Standard<br />

Oil Company, the Standard Oil Trust was conceived<br />

and controlled by nine trustees. As general<br />

statutes at the time limited corporate ownership of out<br />

-of-state firms, Rockefeller and Flagler devised a plan<br />

to surmount these legal obstacles. Acquisitions and<br />

ventures were channeled through trustees whose affiliation<br />

and loyalty to Rockefeller and Standard Oil<br />

were not readily obvious.<br />

This new arrangement enabled Rockefeller to form alliances<br />

and set up new concerns in other states while<br />

retaining complete control of all the various interests.<br />

It brought new meaning to the word “Trust”, and<br />

made Rockefeller and Flagler the most powerful individuals<br />

in the industry and the richest men in the<br />

world.<br />

John D. Rockefeller (1839-1937) was the dominant<br />

figure in the oil industry until his retirement in 1911.<br />

He started his business career as a bookkeeper, and by<br />

age 19 was a partner in a produce business. He began<br />

operating a small refinery with his partners, and<br />

quickly realized the growing investment possibilities in<br />

what was then a fairly new industry. In 1870, he organized<br />

the Standard Oil Company of Ohio and proceeded<br />

to achieve control over 90% of the oil refineries<br />

in the country.<br />

Rockefeller had little interest in discovering oil; he left<br />

that to wildcatters and other speculators. He concentrated<br />

on the transportation, distribution and sale of<br />

petroleum products, building a fortune estimated at<br />

over a billion dollars. (photo) Est. 1,000-1,500<br />

516 American Asylum for the Deaf Interesting series of letters, including an interesting ALS by George<br />

Henry Loring, a deaf student at the Hartford American Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb, 4 full pages<br />

(possibly with missing pages, though the writer’s style makes it unclear if he has simply skipped from one<br />

sentence to another), 4to, January 27, 1818. He writes to an unidentified Hartford native in Washington<br />

DC that the school’s co-founder Laurent “Clerc...teaches the deaf and dumb, and they attend<br />

and write on the slate every day...during 3 hours or 2 hours...Mr. Clerc always teaches the deaf<br />

and dumb about the bible every Saturday...He gives Mr. [co-founder Thomas Hopkins] Gallaudet<br />

some signs for teaching his 7 pupils....You may tell [US Senator and Asylum benefactor Josiah<br />

Quincy] about my character. My eye is blind, but one is not...I am little and deaf and dumb boy.<br />

I am 11 years old. I was born in Boston...” With ALS from JL Skinner to Hartford pillar Nathaniel<br />

Terry, 1 page, Washington March 22, 1819. He thanks Terry “together with your other fellow citizens,<br />

for the successful, very honorable manner, in which you have accomplished the object of their<br />

wishes, in regard to the Connecticut Asylum. The Asylum...is one of those sublime refinements,<br />

which belong to the social state in its highest improvements...” With a pair of letters from 1821<br />

concerning the sale of land owned by the asylum in and near Tuscaloosa, Alabama. One 1821 letter with<br />

partial fold splits, otherwise all VG. The American Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb (now the American<br />

School for the Deaf) was the first such institution to be successfully established in the country (a similar<br />

school in Virginia lasted for just a year). [4] Est. 200-400<br />

518 Civil War: Edward Hatch Civil War Union general (1832-99); participated in Grierson’s raid into Mississippi;<br />

opposed NB Forrest in Tennessee; an Indian fighter after the war. ALS “Edward Hatch / Bt.<br />

Major Genl. / USA,” 1-3/4 pages, 4to, St. Louis Depot, January 4, 1873. He thanks US Secretary of<br />

War WW Belknap “for the kindness...in giving us this delightful station, also for the consideration<br />

shown me...It is the hope of the Army as well as the Country at large, that you retain the present<br />

position...” in US Grant’s second term, which was to begin in March. Inlaid to slightly larger sheet.<br />

Light toning, VG. Belknap did keep his position, but was successfully impeached in 1876 for corruption.<br />

the slaves in Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina emancipated, creating a furor in Washington;<br />

defeated at Lynchburg by Jubal Early in 1864, after which he retired from the service. Choice Seminole<br />

War-era Autograph Letter Signed “David Hunter / Paymaster,” 1 page, 4to, Fort Smith, Arkansas,<br />

October 19, 1842. He writes Paymaster General Nathan Towson, “I have the honor to enclose you<br />

my Monthly Statement for Sep. ‘42: also a letter, with its enclosure, for the Second Auditor of<br />

the Treasury [none present]. I have made the payment here, and shall leave for Gibson [Arkansas]<br />

tomorrow, if the Quartermaster has the transportation...” Partial separation at fold, small pin hole,<br />

otherwise VG. Both Hunter and the Confederate general who would end his career, Jubal Early, served<br />

in the Second Seminole War, another example of Civil War opponents who had been comrades-in-arms. Est. 100-250<br />

520 Civil War: Wesley Merritt Union general (1836-1910); led cavalry at Gettysburg; served with with<br />

distinction under Sheridan in the Shenandoah and Appomattox Campaigns; superintendent of West<br />

Point; led US ground forces in the Battle of Manila, becoming governor-general of the Philippines. Interesting<br />

ALS “W. Merritt,” 3 pages, 8vo, on stationery of the Grand Hotel, NY, June 16, 1891. He<br />

writes an unnamed general that “I...would gladly underatake the work and try to do justice to the<br />

life of my old Chief for whom my respect increases as time goes on, but I can promise nothing<br />

this summer” because of his wife’s illness. He suggests Gen James H Wilson or Col Fred C Newhall instead.<br />

Even age-toning, VG. Merritt served in only one campaign alongside both James H Wilson and<br />

Fred C Newhall; that was in the Shenandoah Campaign, leaving little doubt that the “old Chief” he refers<br />

to is Philip H Sheridan, who had died in 1888. (photo - page 60) Est. 200-300<br />

521 Civil War: Collection Choice selection of items including an early Secession Letter, 2 pages, 4to,<br />

Lynchburg, VA, April 30, 1861, lamenting how “War and all its demoralizing consequences reign<br />

careless of consequences and in fact crimes they suppose are to be tolerated such times as these.<br />

Several murders in Baltimore other than the engagements with those troops have occurred, some<br />

in Washington. Last week here as Senator [future President Andrew] Johnson of Tennessee passed<br />

through he barely escaped with his life for his Union sentiments...” With three Soldier’s Letters<br />

by Henry Caryl at Ft Marshall in Baltimore, August 10-September 14, 1864. He writes his mother and<br />

sister in Charlestown, MA. There is little news from his position behind the front; his company drills in<br />

the Maryland countryside, frightening locals who think a battle must be brewing; like so many soldiers,<br />

he must combat illness and endure substandard food; he worries in the last letter that he will be sent to<br />

New York to enforce the draft, but “I should rather go to the front when I fight I do not want my<br />

head smashed with brick bats and paveing stones.” With a copy of the New York Times of May 29,<br />

1863, with news of the ongoing investment of Vicksburg; Confederate forces reduced along the Rappahannock<br />

(said to be to stop their fishing, when in fact Lee’s forced had begun its swing around the<br />

Union right that would end in Gettysburg, PA just a month later); and rebel shipping depredations. All<br />

of the Republic of Geneva concerning two prisoners that the Committee has arrested who are being<br />

held in Luxembourg. Just a month earlier, the Committee had secured the execution of Maximilien<br />

Robespierre, bringing an end to the Reign of Terror and establishing its own somewhat more moderate<br />

538 Fur Trade: [American Fur Company: Vanderburgh’s Death] Interesting autograph letter signed by<br />

John Catron to Robert Campbell in St. Louis. He explains that “Wm. H. Vanderburg the clerk of the<br />

American Fur Co. drew a Bill of Exchange on P[ierre] Chouteau Agt for said Company in favour of<br />

George Ennis for the sum of $473.50...for furs my Brother [Minatree Catron] sold to the Am. Fur<br />

Copy...with the instructions to pay me the money. Mr. Chouteau has refused payment and the Bill is returned<br />

protested...Ennis informs me that you had a draft or Bill...drawn by same Vanderburgh as clerk<br />

of Am Fur Co on same Chouteau for a large amount” and wants to know if Chouteau protested that,<br />

too. Vanderburgh had become one of the AMF’s top men in the Western Department, running its trapping<br />

operations with Andrew Drips. They had recently been chasing Tom Fitzpatrick and his men<br />

through Blackfoot country. The day after this letter was written, Vanderburgh and a handful of trappers<br />

were ambushed by about a hundred Blackfeet. He and one other man were killed. Vanderburgh’s body<br />

was never found. (Image) Est. 400-500<br />

539 Fur Trade: [Campbell, Robert] Three very early letters to Campbell in St. Louis, all 1825, from business<br />

colleagues. The first, from Cape Girardeau, MO, is from James Keyte on April 30, sending goods<br />

up the Mississippi on the Phoenix. Keyte writes again on May 9, this time from Wheeling, (now WV),<br />

during a trip East. Because of low water, he will skip Pittsburgh, and will take the mail stage to Baltimore.<br />

Keyte’s instructions to Campbell about their stores suggests that he is in the position of authority. Eventually<br />

Campbell would become one of the richest men in St. Louis.The third, from Philadelphia, is from<br />

Robert Wiley on May 25, while he is apparently being visited by Keyte, who carried the letter back to<br />

St. Louis. He reports that business is slow, and “nearly every species of merchandise has advanced in Value<br />

in consequence of which country dealers have curtailed their orders.. A few years like the present would<br />

convert the whole of you southern & western folks into nabobs...Your time is coming.” All letters suffer<br />

from condition problems.In 1832, Keyte would found the town that still bears his name, Keytesville,<br />

Missouri. The year 1825 would later see Campbell’s first expedition to the Rocky Mountains, in the<br />

company of Jedediah Smith of the Rocky Mountain Fur Company. Est. 200-300<br />

541 George IV King of the United Kingdom (1762-1830, reigned from 1820); his father’s illness required<br />

his regency from 1811 until George III’s death; though clever and talented, his excesses, his outdated<br />

550 Napoleon I - French Emperor (1769-1821, ruled 1804-15); emerging in the late stages of the French<br />

Revolution, he would conquer or control most of continental Europe until his final defeat at Waterloo<br />

in 1815. Manuscript Order Signed “Nap,” 1 page, 4to, Paris, March 3, 1809. He directs Minister of War<br />

General Henri Clarke to reorganize fusilier companies in the Army of the Rhine at Strasbourg in order<br />

to form a Battalion of March of the Fourth Battalion of the Army of the Rhine. These join grenadiers<br />

and votigeurs that have already been assigned to that army, and will create a battalion alongside that of<br />

General Nicolas Oudinot. In VG/Fine condition. Just a month after the emperor signed this order,<br />

Austrian troops crossed into French-controlled Bavaria, initiating the War of the Fifth Coalition. After<br />

initial Austrian successes against Napoleon’s disorganized subordinates, the emperor took charge of the<br />

war, and won a costly but decisive victory at Wagram in July. General Oudinot’s bravery in the campaign<br />

led to his being named a Marshal of France, and Austria ceased to be a threat to French control over Europe.<br />

A choice one-page document ideal for prominent display. (photo) Est. 1,000-1,500<br />

551 Napoleon I - Manuscript Document Signed “Nap” as Emperor, 1/2 page, 4to, the palace at Fontainbleu,<br />

October 13, 1810. With one (undeciphered) interpolation in his hand. Napoleon directs Minister<br />

of War Henri Clarke, the Duc de Feltre, to “Order the 4th Regiment of Line that is in camp at Boulgone”<br />

into garrison duty. Follow-up note pinned to lower left corner. In VG/F condition. In late 1810,<br />

Napoleon was reaching the height of his influence over Europe. Though England continued to thwart<br />

him on the Iberian peninsula, France controlled Spain, Italy, the western German states, Switzerland, and<br />

Poland; and made subordinate allies of Austria, Prussia, Sweden, and Denmark. Only when he dared to<br />

invade Russia in 1812 would Napoleon face an overpowering enemy: the bitter Russian winter. A few<br />

years earlier, Boulogne had been the staging point for the abandoned French assault on the emperor’s<br />

most implacable foe, England. An excellent one-page document ideal for display. (photo) Est. 1,000-1,500<br />

552 Napoleon I - Interesting Manuscript Document Signed “Nap” as Emperor, 1 page, 4to, Paris, November<br />

20, 1810. He writes to his Minister of War, Henri Clarke, the duc de Feltre, about a letter Clarke<br />

had forwarded from General Charles Louis Grandjean. Grandjean had suggested extraordinary maneuvers<br />

of infantry, cannon, and mortars, also involving the navy. In very good condition and deserving of<br />

further research. General Grandjean had risen through the ranks steadily from the revolutionary period<br />

through Napoleon’s reign, serving with distinction in Pomerania and Spain, including at the Siege of<br />

Saragossa in 1808-9. He had two horses shot from under him at the Battle of Wagram, and would later<br />

command a division in the Russian Campaign, where he held the garrison at Danzig that was compelled<br />

to surrender. He is among the generals immortalized on the Arc de Triomphe. Another desirable onepage<br />

order, ready for display. (photo) Est. 1,000-1,500<br />

553 Napoleon I - Letter Signed “Nap” as Emperor, 1 page, 4to, St. Cloud, June 18, 1811. He writes to Minister<br />

of War Henri Clarke, duc de Feltre, “On July 1st I should be able to dispose of the 5th and 6th Companies<br />

of Engineers...” He goes on to give instructions on the disposition of horses, tools, and transports.<br />

Follow-up note pinned at lower left. In VG/F condition. 1811 was a time of relative quiet for Napoleon<br />

after his victory in the War of the Fifth Coalition in 1809. However, the seeds of his first great failure<br />

were already beginning to sprout, as his supposed supporter, Tsar Alexander I, abandoned Napoleon’s<br />

continent-wide blockade of British shipping. Before long, a complete rupture between France and Russia<br />

would lead to Napoleon’s disastrous attempt to conquer his erstwhile ally, ending in the emperor’s<br />

exile to Elba. A one-page letter ideal for display. (photo) Est. 1,000-1,500<br />

“Brune” as a member of the Council of State, 1/2 page, on partly engraved stationery, Paris, 19 frimaire,<br />

an X (December 10, 1801). He writes Minister of War Louis-Alexandre Berthier, transmitting a letter<br />

from citizen Martigues (not present). Brume (1763-1815) and Berthier would both become Marshals<br />

of the Empire after Napoleon’s coronation. With an exceptional DS by Denis “Decres” as Minister of the<br />

Navy and the Colonies, Paris, 19 ventose, an 11 (March 10, 1803) to the Colonial Prefect of St<br />

Domingue, Montgiraud, concerning financial matters. French control of St Domingue - now Haiti - was<br />

already doomed, and Napoleon would sell Louisiana to the United States in April, divesting himself of<br />

his American holdings. By the first day of 1804, Haiti proclaimed itself an independent nation. With a<br />

DS of December 1799 from Jean Baptiste Girot-Pouzol of the Council of 500 to Minister of Finance<br />

Chales Gaudin; and five other documents, 1800-08, on various civil and military matters. Condition is<br />

Early US Ship’s Passport Collection<br />

These passports were an important ship’s paper, kept aboard the ship during the voyage and deposited, along with the Registry<br />

Certificate, with the appropriate US consular authority anytime the vessel was in a foreign port. The document was<br />

intended to protect the vessel from capture or destruction by proving American (nonbeligerent) ownership. American<br />

crew members aboard the ships remained vulnerable to imprisonment, especially if they did not carry their own personal<br />

protection certificate as proof of citizenship. These passports were cut in a scallop pattern at the top so that they could be<br />

matched with the resulting stub, which the collector held. This was a means of preventing counterfeits.<br />

574 Rosenberg Spy Case: Sobell and Meeropol Unusual group of Typewritten Letters Signed, 1972-74,<br />

all to collector Dr David Marcus of Palm Springs, CA, by men associated with the case of convicted<br />

spies Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were found guilty of stealing secrets of the atomic bomb for the<br />

Soviet Union. The Rosenbergs were sentenced to death and executed in 1953. The verdict, especially<br />

in the case of Ethel Rosenberg, was and remains controversial. The earliest is by songwriter and poet<br />

“Abel Meeropol” (1903-86), 1-1/4 pages, 8vo, South Miami, FL, January 15, 1974. Meeropol, best<br />

known for his poem “Strange Fruit,” which became the basis for the song, had adopted Michael and<br />

Robert Rosenberg after their parents’ execution in 1953. He encloses (not present) “some material...regarding<br />

the Rosenberg case...Also...a statement regarding the substance of the suit against<br />

Louis Nizer [who had written a book supporting the Rosenbergs’ guilt] which the attorney for my<br />

sons, Michael and Robert...has made available...There is a paper-back book about the frame-up<br />

of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg...entitled INVITATION TO AN INQUEST...” A few days later he<br />

sends a brief three-line letter, signed this time as “Lewis Allen,” his pen name, with an enclosure (not<br />

present) regarding the lawsuit. With two letters signed “MS” by Morton Sobell (born 1917), who was<br />

convicted along with the Rosenbergs but received a 30-year sentence rather than the death penalty. He<br />

tells Dr Marcus that he cannot send his autograph, for he considers “autograph collecting infantile.”<br />

In one of the letters, he adds, “I am sorry that you cannot see the difference between autographing<br />

one’s work and autographing an empty piece of paper.” In very recent years, Sobell has admitted<br />

to being a Soviet spy and has made it clear that Julius Rosenberg was also guilty; Ethel’s level of<br />

involvement remains uncertain. [5] Est. 150-250<br />

575 Scott, Winfield American soldier (1786-1866); gained national fame for his heroics in the War of 1812;<br />

in 1840 and 1852. Early Autograph Letter Signed “Winfield Scott” while Brigadier General, 1-1/2<br />

pages, 4to, “Head Qrs. Eastern Dept. / New York,” February 4, 1823. He informs his friend H[ugh]<br />

Brady that “I have this moment received the official information (in the new army list) of your promotion<br />

to the rank of brigadier general. As an old brother soldier, I take the liberty of felicitating<br />

you on the event. Altho’ the rank has been delayed many years after it was fully merited, I trust<br />

it will give you as much pleasure, as the news will afford to your many friends...” Age-toned, with<br />

chipped and slightly torn left margin, partial mounting strip at left edge, otherwise in very good condition.<br />

Hugh Brady had commanded an infantry regiment under Scott at the Battle of Lundy’s Lane in<br />

the War of 1812. He was brevetted Brigadier General on July 6, 1822, for ten years of service in one<br />

grade, and in May 1848 was brevetted Major General for meritorious conduct. (photo - page 76) Est. 300-400<br />

separation of Norway into an independent kingdom. Manuscript Letter of State Signed “Oscar”<br />

“Prince Oscar Frederik Wilhelm Olav Gustav Adolf of Sweden and of Norway...to...Princess Margaret<br />

Victoria Augusta Charlotte Norah of Great Britain...” Countersigned by Minister of Foreign<br />

Affairs “A. Gyldenstolpe.” In fine condition. With translation in French. With historic Typewritten<br />

of the events of June 7 in Norway, and the decision, made by the authorities in Sweden,<br />

to give their consent, under certain conditions intended to safeguard the honor and the interests<br />

of Sweden, to the dissolution of the Union existing since 1814...the King has just promulgated<br />

a law carrying the repeal of the Act of Union and recognizing Norway as a completely separate<br />

State from Sweden...” Binding holes at left, otherwise in very good condition. Est. 250-350<br />

577 Sydney, Thomas Townshend, Viscount English politician (1732-1800); Secretary at War and Home<br />

Secretary; namesake of the Australian metropolis. Interesting political content Autograph Letter Signed<br />

three times, once as “Sydney” and twice with the initial “S,” 2-1/2 pp, 4to, Tottenham Park [London,<br />

home of the Earl of Ailesbury], October 10, 1788. He informs “My Dear Jack” [undoubtedly his son,<br />

John Townshend] that he knows no one to recommend for an appointment, as “Sr. C[harles] Barrow’s<br />

sudden termination of a long illness has disconcerted matters, & Sir G. Paul has got the start. I<br />

have thought it adviseable to send your letter or an extract of it to Mr. [Prime Minister William]<br />

Pitt...I am quite in the dark myself...” After advising him to not “engage yourself lightly,” he explains<br />

that he has gotten the Receivership of the County of Gloucestershire for Sir William Guise. The following<br />

page and a half are filled with lengthy postscripts, wondering if someone can be found “of the<br />

County, that will stand upon the right Interest, or is there no compromise to be made against a<br />

general election?” and trying to track down whether Jack is in Bath or Gloucester. Paper clip stains on<br />

first page, soiling to second page, minor edge and fold wear, otherwise VG. Sir Charles Barrow would<br />

die early in 1789. His place in parliament was filled by John Pitt, a Tory, which suggests that Sydney, a<br />

Whig, was unable to get an appointment of someone with “the right Interest”. Est. 200-300<br />

578 Theater: Michael Redgrave and Family Acclaimed English actor and producer (1908-85); known best<br />

for his theatrical work; his daughters Lynn and Vanessa Redgrave, and Vanessa’s daughters Natasha and<br />

Joely Richardson have all made their mark in film. A wealth of correspondence: 9 Autograph Letters<br />

Signed, 46 TLS, an ANS and two DS, signed various ways, most on his imprinted stationery, various<br />

places (mostly London), 1948-73. All are to New York lawyer Arnold Weissberger. Many with great<br />

content, as Redgrave critiques his own work. He mentions A Month in the Country, A Woman in Love,<br />

The Astonished Heart, Hamlet, Henry IV, The Tempest, Horatio Hornblower, Juliana, Antony and Cleopatra,<br />

Hedda Gabler, My Fair Lady, Out of Bounds, La Boheme, Gaugin, and many others. In 1949, he<br />

notes: “a great advantage that we have in London as compared with New York - that we can put<br />

on plays which obviously have a limited appeal and expect to get our costs back in a few weeks...”<br />

After his 1948 New York debut in the role of Macbeth, he reflects, “I think that my next appearance<br />

in New York ought to be in something which is very specially ‘mine’...Even ones friends could<br />

hardly call [Macbeth] anything better than a near-miss...” With Card Signed “With all our love<br />

also / Rachel & Michael,” all in his hand, with a cover illustration of Redgrave as Richard II. With six<br />

Telegrams by Redgrave, 1962-67. Complementing Redgrave’s correspondence are ALS variously by his<br />

wife Rachel Kempson [4], his son and biographer Corin, his daughter Lynn [3], and her husband John<br />

Clark. In her final letter to Weissberger, Kempson asks about selling the family’s London home, explaining<br />

that “with Mike’s wretched ‘Parkinsons’ we can no longer afford 2 homes...” Generally VG.<br />

An outstanding archive deserving additional research and discovery. [72] (photo - page 76) Est. 400-600<br />

579 USS Monitor: John Ericsson Swedish-born engineer and inventor (1803-89); designed the ironclad<br />

USS Monitor, and revolutionized sea travel with his caloric engine and perfection of the screw propeller.<br />

Interesting Autograph Letter Signed “J. Ericsson,” 1 page, 4to, New York, August 3, 1852. He writes<br />

to journalist and lawyer John O. Sargent, “You asked me last night to state candidly my opinion in regard<br />

to Mr. James Flagg’s fitness to take the lamented Mr. Dawning’s place - Mr. Flagg is eminently<br />

qualified to fill the situation - He is a skilful [sic] agricultural chemist, a botanist of considerable acquirements,<br />

intimately acquainted with English ornamental gardening, a very neat architectural &<br />

mechanical draughtsman and designs with much facility & taste - I may add that Mr. Flagg is quite<br />

an educated man and possesses much useful & varied information...” Old catalogue description pasted<br />

to head of letter in blank margin; lightly age-toned, with edge and fold wear including minor splits at<br />

left edge, otherwise in good condition. In 1842, Sargent had published a lecture he’d given at the Boston<br />

Lyceum on naval improvements, specifically Ericsson’s caloric engine. With ALS “J. Ericsson,” 1 page,<br />

8vo, no place, “Thursday morning” [March 1857]. Writing to shipping entrepreneur John B. Kitching,<br />

he pens “If you can spare time give me a call to day, between 3 & 5 o’clock, you will see something in<br />

the caloric line that will please you...” Age-toned, stained, otherwise good. Kitching must have been<br />

very pleased, for he became principal owner of the Ericsson, a transatlantic passenger steamer, and would<br />

run an agency in New York that sold caloric engines. [2] (photo - page 76) Est. 250-450<br />

tedium of a four-year long whaling voyage, punctuated by the aggravation of many missed opportunities to<br />

capture “spurm” and right whales. In one passage Captain Green’s exasperation is only too clear as he writes<br />

“....the West Boat went on to one Large 110 Bll (barrel) Whale and the Boatsteerer Mist (SIC) him. A First<br />

Gen’l Augustus Morse / Leominster / Worcester, Mass.” General Wool generously relates: “I have<br />

just returned from celebrating the Anniversary of the battle of Plattsburgh [an important US victory<br />

in 1814] when I had the honor to receive your kind invitation to review your Division...at<br />

the camp of General Wool, near Springfield, Mass. I regret that other engagements will deprive<br />

me of the very great pleasure it would afford me not only to review your Division, but to accompany<br />

Iconic Fractional Currency Shield<br />

728<br />

728 Seldom Available “Original” Framed Gray Fractional Currency Shield - Fr. 1382.Not originally issued in frames, it<br />

is evident that many Fractional Currency Shields soon found their way into gold trimmed wooden frames, perhaps for display<br />

in public areas such as post offices. Because of the contemporary housing that is missing so frequently on shields that<br />

exist today is intact on the present, we don’t hesitate to endorse the present as fully “original”. Further differentiating the<br />

current shield from many that are offered today is the absence of water stains on the bottom quarter. Like most of the gray<br />

shields (gray being the most common of three varieties), the present is composed of 39 specimen fractional notes, four or<br />

which have hand-signed Jefferies-Spinner signature combinations. Minor variations in note conditions are visible, but the<br />

notation of specific specimen condition remains unnecessary given their relative similarity. Several condition issues however<br />

do exist and, while not major deterrents in the big picture, are worthy of mention. While not uncommon, the paper<br />

has moderately but evenly toned and close inspection yields a small tear in the lower right margin that steers clear of the<br />

shield. Additionally, several folds and creases enter the shield, primarily on the right side. Additionally, it is apparent that<br />

insects at one time made their acquaintance with the shield as minor paper thinning is traceable around portions of the<br />

margins. All said though, the present original frame, glass and shield, a combination that appears to be getting rarer and<br />

rarer with time, presents wonderfully and is one of the most visually imposing items available to banknote aficionados. Further,<br />

it is one of the truest pieces of numismatic Americana available to collectors, offering those few lucky owners the<br />

chance to intimately connect to a time when counterfeiting was a great public concern and the government’s answer to<br />

said problem was to produce a visual display of what things “should look like”, so as to educate the populace. A wonderful<br />

piece of American fabric that is sure to be cherished by its next owner. (photo)<br />

such as 5-pointed stars (perhaps a Jewish merchant),<br />

triangles and crosses, that would appear on the boxes<br />

of freight as identifying marks. Most are in Very Fine<br />

condition with very little age toning. An unusual collection,<br />

probably difficult to duplicate. Must be seen.<br />

over some old pinscratches in field, overall a decent example<br />

of a very rare and important issue of Sinope seldom<br />

offered in public sale, very fine. Originally a<br />

Hittite port, Sinope became the wealthiest emporium on<br />

the southern Euxine coast. Between 780 and 756 BC,<br />

Milesian Greeks founded a settlement there, while the<br />

area came under Phrygian contol in 700 BC. Sinope<br />

was laid waste by the Cimmerians in 677 BC, only to be<br />

refounded as a Milesian colony in ca. 630 BC. It later<br />

came under the yoke of the Persian empire. Following<br />

the defeat of the Persians at the hands of Alexander the<br />

Great, the Macedonian ruler told Sinope’s ambassador<br />

that the city should keep its old independence. After<br />

Alexander’s death, Sinope was able to remain independent<br />

both of the Seleukids and the Pontic kings. Syrian<br />

influence, though, was clear and this tetradrachm<br />

emulates Seleukid types of Antiochos III, albeit in distinctive<br />

Sinopan fashion. The obverse depicts Sinope,<br />

daughter of Asopus, who, according to the Greek historian<br />

Diodorus Siculus, bore Apollo (depicted on the reverse)<br />

a son, Syrus, the eponymous first king of the<br />

Syrians. (photo) Est. 3,000-4,000<br />

Ex-Clive of India Treasure Peca<br />

In 1997, various South African bodies and authorities<br />

laid claim to the treasure based on their belief that it<br />

is Clive’s gold, culminating in a settlement by consent<br />

of the parties and order of the court. The coin above<br />

was one of a little over 800 gold coins - the only coins<br />

available for sale from the collection originally presented<br />

to <strong>Spink</strong>, sold in the Clive of India Treasure<br />

In April, 1755 Robert Clive was preparing for his voyage<br />

back to India. Beginning his career as a lowly clerk<br />

in the British East India Company, Clive had returned<br />

to England two years earlier as a rich and successful<br />

military hero, briefly pursuing a flirtation with politics.<br />

Now returning to the battlefields of India, he<br />

packed his belongings and nearly £3,000 of gold coins<br />

(England then abounded with Brazilian gold coin)<br />

and left with his wife aboard the Stretham, which<br />

sailed for India with several other ships on April 22.<br />

His gold, though, had been consigned to another<br />

ship, the Dodington.<br />

Beset in stormy weather off Chaos Island in Algoa<br />

Bay, near present day Port Elizabeth in South Africa,<br />

the Dodington hit a reef and smashed into pieces. Only<br />

23 of the 270 aboard survived, living for seven<br />

months on Chaos Island, now known as Bird island<br />

(so named for the legions of birds whose guano contributions<br />

over the years has made the island a valued<br />

natural resource). They recovered portions of the<br />

wreckage - tools, provisions and one “Chest of Treasure”<br />

and one of “Wrought Plate.” The treasure was<br />

disputed, the officers wanted to save it for their consignors<br />

and the other survivors wanted to divide it<br />

among themselves. One chest was opened surreptitiously<br />

and more than half the contents stolen and<br />

hidden. The survivors sailed to Mozambique aboard<br />

an escape vessel they had built, then on to India,<br />

where Clive soon learned of his loss.<br />

Over the years, some in the Cape Colony believed that<br />

more than two treasure chests came ashore on Bird<br />

Island and that the additional chests were buried by<br />

the officers to avoid conflict and mutiny. In England,<br />

meanwhile, the story of the wreck of the Dodington<br />

captured the public imagination and stirred the interest<br />

of salvagers and would-be treasure hunters.<br />

Very Rare Marriage Ruble In Gold<br />

1027 RUSSIA, Nicholas I (1825-1855), Marriage Ruble in Gold 1841, St. Petersburg, By H. Gube, On<br />

the Wedding of Grand Duke Alexander Nikolaevich (the future Tsar Alexander II) and Princess<br />

Maria Alexandrovna of Hesse-Darmstadt. 32.69 grams. Reeded edge. Their conjoined busts l.,<br />

Maria of Hesse wearing a laurel wreath, PѢЗAΛЪ ΓYБE below heads (Cut by Gube). Rev. Crowned<br />

shield emblazoned with the ciphers of Alexander and Maria, supported by Cupid holding a bow at<br />

below shield (Bitkin 899). PCGS Genuine Tooled - UNC Details. Friction hairlines, small scratch<br />

upper reverse, tooling lower heads. Good lustre.<br />

1027<br />

On a state visit to England in 1838, Grand Duke Alexander Nikolaevich was unsuccessful in his<br />

marital advances on the young Queen. But while touring Europe in the same year, he had fallen in<br />

love with Princess Maximiliane Wilhelmine Auguste Sophie Marie of Hesse-Darmstadt, then but a<br />

tender 14. In 1840, he decided to marry her and the princess arrived in September. Immediately popular<br />

with the people, Princess Marie was duly renamed Maria Alexandrovna.<br />

Mint-produced commemorative coin issues in Russia only began in 1834 with the Alexandrine Column<br />

Ruble. And with the marriage of his heir looming, Tsar Nicholas I decided to use this new innovation<br />

to honor and commemorate the event, ordering the State Mint to prepare designs for a<br />

medallic coinage. Heinrich Gube’s designs were chosen.<br />

Alexander Nikolaevich and Maria Alexandrovna were wed April 16, 1841 in an elaborate ceremony.<br />

And the numismatic outpouring from the event was equally elaborate, a Medallic Ruble and Medals,<br />

in three metals were produced. (photo) Est. 35,000-45,000<br />

1098 1787 Fugio 1 Cent. XF. Newman-11X, R.4. A<br />

slightly scarcer type that is easily identified by its large<br />

clash marks on the obverse surfaces that run beneath<br />

above-average striking definition for the type with<br />

exceptionally smooth example that technically is accompanied<br />

Sharp detail remains with even brown color and the<br />

addition of numerous marks blended inside Liberty’s<br />

hair that accounts for the “damaged” moniker. Struck<br />

from an interesting reverse die with the second S in<br />

bar in the denomination, and missing wreath stems.<br />

(photo) Est. 300-500<br />

1108<br />

1112 1877 1 Cent. PCGS MS62. The undisputed key in<br />

the Indian cent series due to its low mintage with the<br />

demand for mint state examples far outstripping the<br />

supply. The surfaces of the present example maintains<br />

glossy, relatively smooth chestnut-brown color with<br />

specks of original red peaking through. No major<br />

marks are present, but slight incompleteness in strike,<br />

which translates to weakness on the Indian’s upper<br />

headdress feathers, likely prevented an even finer designation.<br />

(photo) Est. 2,500-3,000<br />

1113 1877 1 Cent. VG. LIBERTY is fading on the Indian’s<br />

headband, but otherwise, the integral design<br />

key issue in the Indian cent series.<br />

Est. 400-600<br />

1114 1877 1 Cent. VG. Evenly worn with the L in LIB-<br />

ERTY being all that remains. A minuscule rim bruise<br />

Est. 300-500<br />

1108 1863 1 Cent. Proof. Attractive coloration on both<br />

sides that mixes blue and maroon color with original<br />

coppery-orange. Mark-free with only minor hairlines<br />

sharply detailed key date issue with a blend of tone on<br />

the obverse and noteworthy amounts of original mint<br />

red on the reverse. A small tick in Lincoln’s beard<br />

likely prevented the Gem designation. (photo)<br />

1204 1805 25 Cents. Good. B-4, R.3. An attractive problem-free<br />

specimen with even wear and soft gray color<br />

on both sides. An affordable example of this Draped<br />

Bust type. (photo) Est. 300-400<br />

1209 Quintet of 1853 Arrows and Rays Seated Quarters.<br />

Of the group, four are Philadelphia Mint specimens<br />

with one being from New Orleans. The nicest of<br />

the bunch is a P-Mint representative with AU details,<br />

that has been lightly cleaned and has since retoned to<br />

a champagne color. A short-lived and heavily demanded<br />

type for its beautiful design. Sold as is, no returns.<br />

of this early Draped Bust half dollar type with<br />

surfaces, that unlike many of its fellow survivors, show<br />

little loss of the highpoint detail with traces of original<br />

luster that cling to the protected devices. No eyedistracting<br />

marks are seen over either side, further<br />

elevating the desirability of the present specimen.<br />

Worthy of careful consideration from the collector by<br />

date or die marriage. (photo) Est. 600-800<br />

overall with several ancient digs.<br />

3) Fine Details, Damaged. O-108, R.3. Evidently<br />

below Liberty’s chin. [3] Est. 400-600<br />

1235 Pair of Problem-Free Bust Half Dollars.<br />

large die crack on the obverse that defined the die<br />

marriage.<br />

us from assigning the designation. Still, market acceptable<br />

with a charming blanket of attractive toning.<br />

Est. 100-150<br />

1242<br />

1242 1863 50 Cents. PCGS MS64. An exquisite Civil<br />

War representative with the combination of few contact<br />

marks and knife-like rendering of the intended<br />

design elements. The luster varies by side, with the<br />

obverse luster being frosty and encircling the central<br />

devices and the reverse being slightly semi-prooflike as<br />

the result of considerable die polish lines. Interestingly,<br />

some die rust is present beneath the olive branch<br />

on the reverse, likely the result of a storage mishap and<br />

usage on a previous year’s coinage. A wonderful premium<br />

example and sure to be met with enthusiasm.<br />

Housed in a first generation PCGS holder. (photo)<br />

around the legends. Est. 80-120<br />

1239 Quartet of Reeded Edge Bust Half Dollars.<br />

1) 1837. Fine.<br />

1246<br />

1246 1950 50 Cents. NGC PR67. Completely brilliant<br />

A scarce and desirable first-year Franklin proof that is<br />

typically found in lesser grades. (photo)<br />

Housed in an older green PCGS holder.<br />

Est. 350-450<br />

1249<br />

1249 1798 1 Dollar. XF Details, Damaged. B-24, R.2. A<br />

sharply defined example of this early Heraldic Eagle<br />

half dollar with attractive gray-tan coloration over<br />

both sides that lightens at areas with heavier wear.<br />

One pock mark to the right of Liberty’s face and several<br />

short pinscratches on the reverse would prevent<br />

problem-free certification. Still, above-average for the<br />

type and an affordable way to obtain an example with<br />

most of Liberty’s hair detail remaining. (photo)<br />

1248 1795 Two Leaves - Small Eagle 1 Dollar. XF Details,<br />

boldly detailed example of this avidly collected “small<br />

eagle” type with mostly untoned surfaces that hold<br />

some hairlines and edges that show some apparent<br />

damage. Given the overall appearance, authenticity has<br />

been questioned - and PCGS agreed, offering a “No<br />

Decision” upon return. As such, this example will be<br />

sold as is, with no returns. (photo)<br />

Est. 1,000-3,000<br />

1250 1798 1 Dollar. Fine Details, Cleaned. B-8, R.2.<br />

Free of all but the slightest contact marks with an attractive<br />

veil of patina over both sides. Underlying<br />

brightness suggests a past cleaning, but given the high<br />

percentage of survivors that have seen at least this level<br />

of cleaning, mild offenders, such as the present, are<br />

often allowed to slide by at the grading services. As<br />

such, this borderline “market acceptable” example<br />

may or may not receive detail-free grading at the leading<br />

grading services. (photo) Est. 800-1,000<br />

1253<br />

1253 1799 1 Dollar. ANACS XF40. B-23. R.4. A sharply<br />

detailed specimen of this easily identifiable die marriage,<br />

with eight stars to Liberty’s left and five to her<br />

right (usually 7X6). The surfaces are now toned<br />

throughout, with deep olive-gray on the obverse and<br />

lighter tan-gray on the reverse. Oil-slick blushes are<br />

evident on both sides. While some contact chatter is<br />

visible on the obverse, no individual marks are bothersome.<br />

1252 1798 1 Dollar. Fine Details, Scratched. B-23, R.3.<br />

Damage. B-1, R.3. Rich brown and olive patina blanket<br />

the surfaces with no significant marks and sharp<br />

design detail on Liberty’s hair and the reverse eagle’s<br />

breast. While the overall appeal remains attractive,<br />

some of the obverse peripheral tone is “too dark” and<br />

would likely result in a failure to make it into a problem-free<br />

holder. (photo) Est. 1,800-2,200<br />

in the reverse centers. (photo) Est. 700-900<br />

friction on Liberty’s hair curls. Est. 150-250<br />

1294 1884-O/O 1 Dollar. NGC MS65. VAM-7A, R.5.<br />

The surfaces remain boldly lustrous with apricot color<br />

on the obverse and a tone-free reverse. While unattributed<br />

on the NGC holder, magnification reveals the<br />

tell-tale signs of doubled O variety with some die rust<br />

near the ED in UNITED. Est. 100-150<br />

1301 1885-O 1 Dollar. PCI (Green) MS63 Deep Mirror<br />

Prooflike. Deep watery mirrors are evident on both<br />

sides with white surfaces throughout. At the time, PCI<br />

the assigned grade seems correct as marks on Liberty’s<br />

cheek would prevent the MS64 grade.<br />

1304 1886-S 1 Dollar. Uncirculated. Intricately defined<br />

throughout with effulgent luster and untoned centers.<br />

Several slide marks on Liberty’s cheek are evident and<br />

would likely limited this piece to the MS62 grade.<br />

Est. 150-250<br />

1312 Quintet of Uncirculated 1891 Morgan Dollars. All<br />

are low-end circulated examples with moderate<br />

light hairlines that are evident when rotated beneath<br />

a light. Est. 100-150<br />

1308 Pair of 1889-S Morgan Dollars.<br />

1) Uncirculated. Moderately marked, but meeting the<br />

qualification of a low-end uncirculated example.<br />

cheek. [2] Est. 150-250<br />

1309 1890-S 1 Dollar. PCI (Gold) MS63 Prooflike. Decidedly<br />

prooflike with stark contract between the<br />

frosted centers and mirrored fields. While the grade is<br />

perhaps ambitious by a point, the prooflike quality is<br />

indisputable. Est. 100-150<br />

1310 Trio of Uncirculated 1890-S Morgan Dollars. All<br />

three border the Select tier with one displaying semiprooflike<br />

2) VF. [2] Est. 150-250<br />

1318 1892-S 1 Dollar. NGC XF Details, Improperly<br />

Cleaned. A deeply toned better date with moderate<br />

wear on the highpoints. Badly in need of a new holder,<br />

as its present one is cloudly as a result of significant<br />

scratches. Est. 100-150<br />

1311<br />

1311 1890-CC 1 Dollar. Uncirculated. A better date Carson<br />

City issue with typical thick frost and light marks<br />

on Liberty’s cheek that preclude the Select level.<br />

1321 1892-CC 1 Dollar. Near-Gem Uncirculated. Essentially<br />

Gem in appearance with an intricately detailed<br />

strike, flashy luster, and an exceptionally clean<br />

obverse. Several contact marks on the reverse likely<br />

preclude a finer grade. Deserving close inspection, and<br />

worthy of a high-end set. * At time of catalog production,<br />

coin was at certification company - will be<br />

sold graded * (photo) Est. 1,500-2,000<br />

1322 1893 1 Dollar. AU. Tone-free with light softening<br />

1374 1936 Elgin 50 Cents. PCGS MS64. Sporadic yellow<br />

its Civil War theme, the Gettysburg commemorative is<br />

among the most sought in the entire series with demand<br />

at every grade level. The surfaces of the present<br />

often full of marks, being relatively clean. Wispy pastel<br />

Services Administration hoard that was released to the public during the Nixon administration.<br />

holder, represents one of the very finest GSA dollars of any date remaining and is tied for the finest<br />

1881-CC graded by NGC (NGC is the only company that certifies GSA holders intact). The surfaces<br />

maintain thick nearly mark-free frost on both sides with the addition of a thin crescent of rainbow<br />

color on the reverse that ads to its personality. The strike is perfect. An important item not<br />

only as a coin, but also as a piece of Americana. Housed in its origianl box of issue with certificate<br />

of authenticity. An NGC grading band has been placed around the original GSA holder to preserve<br />
