Lot 17		1802/0 C-2 R3 Overdate 2 over 0 with Reverse of 1803 PCGS graded VF25. Medium chocolate brown and steel. The surfaces are smooth and the only notable marks are several microscopic pinpricks in the field before the mouth and one more below the L in LIBERTY. None of these tiny marks is visible to the unaided eye. This looks like a half cent that has never been brushed or touched for over 150 years. The surfaces are a bit dull from natural oxidation and there are microscopic traces of loose dirt in the protected areas on both sides. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0, with die lines between the I & B in LIBERTY and a closed curl left of the date. The date and legends are complete and clear and the overdate feature is obvious to the unaided eye. Our grade is F15+, close to VF20 (and probably at that level following a proper brushing). A really nice example of this very popular overdate variety, at the lower end of the condition census. A highlight of the Raymond Gatzke half cent collection. Estimated Value $4,000 - UP Ex JMS Coins (Idaho)-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $5,280
Lot 18		1802/0 C-2 R3 Overdate 2 over 0 with Reverse of 1803 VG10+. Sharpness F15 but there is a shallow planchet flake or void on the neck and a few light hairline scratches from the shoulder into the hair right of the ribbon, but you need a glass to see any of them. Lightly cleaned long ago, now toned slightly glossy olive brown and steel with peeps of lighter brown in some of the protected areas. The surfaces are smooth. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0, with die lines between the I & B in LIBERTY and a closed curl left of the date. The date and legends are complete and strong except for the usual weakness in the center of the reverse. The overdate feature is obvious. An imperfect but still quite nice example of this popular overdate variety. Estimated Value $1,250 - UP Ex DC Lobbyist Sale at Live Auctioneers 11/7/2020 (as XF40)-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,440
Lot 19		1803 C-1 R1 EF40. Slightly sharper but very lightly cleaned without breaking the toning, even on the highpoints.

Nicely struck EDS, Manley state 1.0, before any die cracks on the reverse. Estimated Value $500 - UP Ex Executive Coin-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,260
Lot 20		1803 C-1 R1 NGC graded AU50. Frosty tan and light brown with darker steel brown toning on the highpoints. There is a smudged fingerprint covering much of the portrait that needs to be brushed away to uncover more of the mint luster. Otherwise the only marks are a collection of tiny ticks on the right side of the 0 in the date, a few more under ES in STATES, and a planchet flake on the lower half of the A in HALF (as struck). LDS, Manley state 3.0, with all the fine die cracks he lists for the final die state. Our grade is EF40 (probably higher if the smudge was brushed away). Estimated Value $600 - UP Ex eBay-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,020
Lot 21		1803 C-2 R4 NGC graded Fine Details Rev Scratched. Rather glossy medium steel brown and chocolate. The planchet is mostly smooth, only a few trivial flakes in the obverse fields, but the reverse has numerous fine scratches, mostly on HALF CENT. The scratches do not break the toning and the eye appeal is decent for a worn coin. E-MDS, Manley 2.0, with very fine die cracks on the reverse. The date is bold and the legends are clear. Our grade is net VG8. Estimated Value $200 - UP From the Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $144
Lot 22		1803 C-3 R2 NGC graded XF40. Very attractive medium chocolate brown and steel with some lighter brown in protected areas on the reverse. No roughness or verdigris, only light contact marks. A very thin diagonal nick high on the neck and a fine planchet lamination just right of the D in UNITED (as struck) can help identify this piece.

Lot 25		1804 C-1 R3 EF40. Glossy light to medium chocolate brown with mint frost covering the fields and protected areas on both sides. An absolutely choice half cent except for a strong rim nick off the bust tip and a trail of tiny ticks in the field over the bust. Otherwise this cent is flawless and has just a touch of friction on the highpoints of the devices. MDS, Manley state 1.0 late, with a die crack arcing down through the right side of the second T in STATES through the wreath to the right side of the M in AMERICA. The crack is strong and the field at ES is just starting to rise. This is the Breen plate coin for his die state IV and it is plated in the Eckberg reference on half cents. Comes with a nice provenance. Estimated Value $2,000 - UP Ex Martin Levy-Del Bland 12/24/1972-Bill Weber, McCawley & Grellman Auctions/Superior 6/3/2002:2293-William Eckberg, McCawley & Grellman FPL 6/2008 ($4500)-Raymond Gatzke Collection.

Lot 26		1804 C-1 R3 NGC graded AU50. Frosty dark olive brown and steel with lighter steel brown and tan in protected areas. The surfaces are smooth and the only marks are some tiny nicks and a few short scratches in the field behind the portrait. Three parallel light scratches off the lower end of the hair ribbon are the only marks that catch your eye. M-LDS, Manley state 2.0 early. The arcing die crack on the reverse is strong and the area to the right of the crack near ES in STATES is slightly raised. Our grade is EF40, at the lower end of the condition census. Another very nice example of this tough die variety, just a slightly later die state than the previous lot. Estimated Value $1,750 - UP Ex Stack's Bowers-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,800
Lot 27		1804 C-1 R3 ICG graded AU55 Details Scratched Damaged. Frosty medium brown and chocolate.

Lot 28		1804 C-2 R6 AG3. Sharpness VG8 but there is carefully engraved graffiti in the obverse fields, possibly American Indian symbols plus the initials "PP." The reverse is unmarked and the surfaces are smooth. Glossy light steel brown and olive; probably lightly cleaned and retoned. E-MDS, Manley state 2.0 early, with a die crack through the tops of ERTY, strongest on the right half. The extension of the crack up from the top of that E has not formed. Softly struck on the left side of the reverse thanks to non-parallel die faces, as always seen on this very rare variety. The date and legends are complete and clear except for the usual weakness on ED ST. The reverse is rotated 10-15 degrees clockwise. Too bad about the engraving; would have been one of the finest examples known of this very rare variety. Estimated Value $4,000 - UP Ex Bud's Coins (Cambia, California) 7/24/1989-The Widok Collection, Goldbergs 2/16/2020:454-Raymond Gatzke Collection (includes the Widok collection envelope).

Lot 29		1804 C-4 R5 PCGS Fine Details Tooled. Slightly glossy steel and chocolate brown. No corrosion or verdigris.

The date and legends are complete and clear. Our grade is net VG7. The attribution is noted on the PCGS label. Estimated Value $600 - UP Ex Stack's Bowers-Raymond Gatzke Collection.

Lot 30		1804 C-5 R4 Spiked Chin NGC graded AU50. Very attractive glossy medium brown. The surfaces are smooth and the only notable mark is a fine hairline scratch from the curl before the ear down to the truncation over the left side of the 4. There are traces of mint frost in some of the protected areas but loose dirt in protected areas is hiding additional areas of frost. This one needs a proper bath. MDS, Manley state 4.0. The bisecting die crack on the reverse is strong and a subtle bulge shows in the field before the face. The Spiked Chin feature is clear. Our grade is VF35+, close to EF40. The attribution is noted on the NGC label. Estimated Value $700 - UP Ex Chris McCawley-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $870
Lot 31		1804 C-5 R4 Spiked Chin PCGS AU Details Cleaned. Frosty medium chocolate brown and steel with small puffs of slightly lighter brown toning on the neck into the field over the bust. No spots or stains. The only marks are a dull scratch in the field before the neck and some faint hairlines on both sides (which must have generated the "Cleaned" assessment by PCGS). The toning on this piece is original and attractive. None of the marks is visible to the unaided eye and it appears the hairlines were the byproduct of an improper brushing. M-LDS, Manley state 5.0, with an additional fine die crack from the leaf above the F in HALF. The Spiked Chin feature is obvious. Our grade is AU50, sharpness net EF40.

E-MDS, Manley state 4.0, with several fine die cracks on the reverse and a stronger crack through the top of the F in OF. Graded VF35 by Noyes, his photo #89086. A really nice example of this very rare die state, certainly among the finest known. Estimated Value $6,000 - UP Ex Bowers & Merena 3/5/1998:80-Chris Young 5/20/1998-Raymond Gatzke Collection.

Lot 47		1805 C-2 R5 Small 5 with Stems ICG VF Details, Reengraved Details. Sharp and attractive but (sadly) the hair details were carefully strengthened to "improve" the grade. Lightly burnished and nicely retoned glossy steel and medium chocolate brown. The surfaces are smooth and free of any marks.

Lot 48		1805 C-3 R4 Small 5 with Stems PCGS graded VG8. Dark olive brown and steel with lighter steel brown toning on the devices. The two-tone appearance accents the devices and adds to the eye appeal. No corrosion or contact marks but there is a fine planchet lamination on the rim over TED in UNITED (as struck) and traces of fine dirt collected into protected areas on both sides. Looks like a half cent that has never been brushed or given any TLC in over a century. EDS, Manley state 1.0, with just a hint of swelling in the field before the portrait.

Lot 53		1806 C-2 R4 Small 6 with Stems NGC VF Details Cleaned. Glossy medium brown and light chocolate with lighter brown toning in some of the protected areas on the obverse.

Lot 56		1808/7 C-2 R3 Overdate 8 over 7 VF30. Sharpness EF40 or slightly better but there are a few light scratches on the obverse, strongest in the field off the tip of the nose.

Glossy chocolate brown and steel with mint frost showing in protected areas. Nicely struck EDS, Manley state 1.0, with a faint die crack through the top of TY.

Lot 57		1808/7 C-2 R3 Overdate 8 over 7 VF25. Sharpness AU50 but the planchet is covered with uniform fine granularity. No marks or verdigris. Uniform dark gray and steel. In spite of the imperfect surfaces and relatively dark toning, this piece still has decent eye appeal. EDS, Manley state 1.0, without any trace of a die crack at TY. One of the sharpest examples known of this popular overdate variety. Estimated Value $1,750 - UP Ex Thomas E. Waggoner-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,170
Lot 58		1808/7 C-2 R3 Overdate 8 over 7 PCGS graded XF45. Glossy medium chocolate brown and steel with frost in protected areas. Looks nearly flawless to the unaided eye but a glass reveals fine scratches that cover the portrait. The marks are old and lost in the natural toning so the eye appeal of this piece is excellent. Nicely struck E-MDS, Manley state 2.0 early, with a fine die crack through the tops of ERTY into the field to the right. The overdate feature is obvious. Our grade is VF35, sharpness net VF25. The attribution and Green Tree Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label.

Lot 59		1808 C-3 R1 PCGS graded AU50, CAC Approved. Dark steel brown and olive with traces of lighter reddish steel brown toning in protected areas. The surfaces are a bit dull thanks to uniform extremely fine granularity mixed with a thin layer of natural oxidation, but the eye appeal is decent (hence the high grade assigned by PCGS and the CAC approval). No verdigris or notable marks. EDS, Manley state 1.0. The dentils are clear and there is no trace of vertical die lines in the field before the portrait. The reverse is rotated 20 degrees CCW. Our grade is net VF35. Estimated Value $500 - UP Ex eBay-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,440
Lot 60		1808 C-3 R1 PCGS graded AU58, CAC Approved. Attractive frosty light brown with darker steel brown toning on the highpoints of the devices and tiny peeps of very faded mint color in a couple places. A very nice half cent with mint state eye appeal, but there is a trace of friction on the highpoints. The best identifying mark, and it is barely visible, is a tiny planchet chip just above and to the right of the center dot on the reverse. M-LDS, Manley state 4.0, with flowlined fields and the reverse rotated 105 degrees CCW relative to the normal head-to-foot die orientation. Our grade is AU50.

Lot 61		1809 C-2 R3 PCGS graded XF40. Very attractive glossy medium chocolate brown. Satiny mint frost covers the protected areas and this half cent would be choice if not for a short vertical scratch on the bust under the left edge of the curl. MDS Manley state 3.0, with die cracks on the obverse. The reverse is rotated 135 degrees CCW. Our grade is VF30. The attribution and Furnace Run Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS label. Estimated Value $300 - UP Ex Furnace Run Collection-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $600
Lot 62		1809 C-4 R2 Large 0 over Small 0 NGC AU Details Scratches. Frosty medium chocolate brown and steel with traces of lighter steel brown toning in protected areas, particularly on the reverse. The surfaces are smooth, flowline luster shows in protected areas, and the eye appeal of this piece is excellent. However a glass reveals a few dull scratches in the field above the head and another at star 10. These marks blend perfectly into the attractive toning and do not catch your eye. MDS, Manley state 1.0 late. The fields are flowlined but the small 0 inside the normal 0 is obvious and at least half of the dentils remain visible. Our grade is net VF35. The attribution and Missouri Curio Cabinet provenance are noted on the NGC label. Estimated Value $600 - UP Ex Missouri Curio Cabinet-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $1,140
Lot 63		1809/9 C-5 R1 NGC graded AU55. Frosty medium chocolate brown and steel. Smooth and attractive with mint state eye appeal but there is a trace of friction on the devices. No marks or other defects, just a bit dirty. Needs a proper bath and brushing to uncover the luster. LDS, Manley state 3.0. The small lump under the second A in AMERICA is gone but the repunching at the bottom of the 9 is still visible (sometimes called a 9 over 6 overdate). Our grade is EF45 (perhaps a bit better after that bath). Estimated Value $500 - UP Ex eBay-Raymond Gatzke Collection. View details and enlarged photos	Realized $576
Lot 64		1809 C-6 R1 ANACS graded AU55. Glossy reddish brown blending to olive brown in some of the protected areas. The color may be original but I suspect this piece was recolored long ago.

Our grade is AU50, sharpness net EF40 for the odd color. The attribution is noted on the ANACS label. Estimated Value $200 - UP Ex CBG Rare Coins (eBay)-Raymond Gatzke Collection.
