1145 1872 ½ Dime. PCGS MS62. Thin yellow-golden<br />
patina adorns both sides with attractive luster in the<br />
fields. Several marks that are mixed into Liberty’s dress<br />
prevent a finer designation. Housed in a first generation<br />
PCGS holder. Est. 100-150<br />
1152<br />
1146<br />
1146 1872 ½ Dime. PCGS PR65. Mintage: 950. A exceptional<br />
specimen of this tiny type with a beautiful<br />
sheath of blue-green and golden patina that caresses<br />
both the obverse and reverse surfaces. Close inspection<br />
with a loupe reveals only die polish lines - an essentially<br />
flawless specimen. Housed in a first<br />
generation PCGS holder. (photo) Est. 800-1,000<br />
1147 Pair of Better Seated Half Dimes.<br />
1) 1856-O. Choice AU. Semi-prooflike with attractive<br />
multicolored toning on both sides.<br />
2) 1868. AU. Briefly circulated with patina atop still<br />
lustrous surfaces. [2] Est. 300-500<br />
1148 1882 5 Cents. PCGS MS63. Mark-free for the grade<br />
with intricately defined devices and a layer of moderately<br />
milky patina over the surfaces. Housed in a first<br />
generation PCGS holder. Est. 100-150<br />
1149 1882 5 Cents. Select Uncirculated. Flashy and well<br />
struck with a touch of golden color in the reverse centers.<br />
An excellent representative for type.<br />
Est. 100-150<br />
1150 1883 No Cents 5 Cents. PCGS PR62. The fields<br />
are pleasingly mirrored with soft hairlines that account<br />
for the grade. Housed in a first generation PCGS<br />
holder. Est. 150-250<br />
1151 Pair of Key Date Liberty Nickels.<br />
1) 1886. AG. Well worn with several minor rim ticks.<br />
2) 1912-S. Good Details, Damaged. A well-disguised<br />
scratch follows the dentilation along the lower obverse<br />
surfaces. [2] Est. 150-250<br />
1152 1913 Type Two 5 Cents. PCGS PR64. Razor-sharp<br />
definition delights the eye with shimmering luster on<br />
both sides. Several carbon flecks of minor significance<br />
beneath the bison’s belly are noted, and likely precluded<br />
PCGS from awarding the Gem designation<br />
when this piece was graded over 20 years ago. Housed<br />
in a first generation PCGS holder. (photo)<br />
Est. 700-900<br />
1153<br />
1153 1913-D Type Two 5 Cents. PCGS MS64. Very<br />
clean for the grade with orange-golden color blanketing<br />
both sides. Housed in a first generation PCGS<br />
holder. (photo) Est. 200-400<br />
1154 Selection of Uncirculated 1913 Buffalo Nickels.<br />
All are Philadelphia Mint specimens with four being<br />
the Type One variety and one being a Type Two example.<br />
Most remain around the Select grade with one<br />
or two that may merit Gem status. [5]<br />
Est. 100-150<br />
1155<br />
1155 1937-D 3-Legged 5 Cents. VF. A moderately circulated<br />
example of one of the most avidly sought varieties<br />
in 20th century numismatics. (photo)<br />
