Commemorative Silver Coins

Lot	Photo	Description	Realized
Lot 1613		A lovely partial type set of Commemorative halves. This set grades MS-60 and better. The set lacks the following type coins: 1925 Ft. Vancouver, 1927 Vermont, 1928 Hawaii, 1935 Hudson and 1935 Spanish Trail. The balance of the set is mounted in a National Coin Album with the famous Wayte Raymond pages inside. Most of the coins have light toning, and this is truly an old time and style collection. Lot of 43 coins. Estimated Value $4,000-UP. View details	Realized $7,475
Lot 1614		A fabulous U.S. Commemorative Medallion Type Set struck in .999 Fine Silver. This set of replicas of the 50 most popular commemorative type coins was struck by The Highland Mint. Each coin is a frosted proof, with the word "COPY" applied somewhere on the reverse. There were struck in .999 fine silver and mounted in a custom blue album. Mintage of these replicas was limited to 5000 sets, and this is set number 2015. Frankly, the quality of these replicas is outstanding. They are true to the original designs and have finely engraved details. One might think they were regular mint issues but for the fact that they are so wonderfully frosted on the devices and obviously proof fields surrounding. As stated by Anthony Swiatek, purchasing a gem set of these (MS-65 or better) would cost in excess of $85,000, putting these out of the reach of most collectors. This is a pleasant alternative, with the designs carefully reproduced and finely engraved. Most show a touch of toning around the periphery from the album. These sets were sold a few years ago at a cost of $2,000 and they are truly a bargain at that price. Lot of 50 coins, and perfect for ebay. Estimated Value $1,000-UP. View details	Realized $437

Lot 1616		1893 Isabella Quarter Dollar. NGC graded MS-67. One of the finest graded of this important commemorative issue. The surfaces are toned a lovely yellow gold color with green hints. Of course the surfaces are nearly perfect in every way, with radiant mint luster. Boldly struck and extremely pleasing for the grade. This one must have been put away at the time of issue and carefully preserved to this day. If you demand top quality, then take a look at this piece. Note the nearly perfect fields and devices, which show pristine luster throughout, and virtually no signs of contact. This coin is essentially as issued, save for the delicate hues of toning which occurred naturally over the decades. NGC notes this is one of 22 graded this high, with 7 graded higher, making this certainly one of the finest in existence. Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000. View details	Unsold
