Lot 1177		1847 Hawaiian Cent. Sharpness of AU-50. Cleaned long ago, now a nice looking reddish-brown. Kamehameha III commissioned one of the local merchants in Honolulu to place an order for 100,000 one-cent pieces. These circulated widely throughout the islands.

Lot 1178		1883 Hawaiian Quarter Dollar. NGC graded MS-65. A frosty mint gem with mottled shades of light violet toning. Flamboyant original Gem quality for the connoisseur who wishes a really attractive Hawaiian quarter dollar. These were struck to the identical standard as the U.S. quarters, and in fact were minted in San Francisco from dies made by Charles E. Barber (who had designed America's Barber coins). Pop 120; 66 in 66, 6 in 67 (PCGS # 10987) . Estimated Value $600 - 700. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $1,064
Lot 1179		1883 Hawaiian Quarter Dollar. NGC graded MS-65. Mostly untoned and well struck. The surfaces are bright silver in color, and quite lustrous on this beautiful Gem BU. Need we remind bidders that a weak impression was sometimes left by the rebound of the dies that struck Kalakaua quarter dollars of Hawaii. The beard was a high point on the coin and rarely finely detailed; however, in the present case, the opposite is true, the coin shows outstanding detail on Kalakaua's hair, his ear and mutton-chops, plus a clear, bold strike on the reverse. Outstanding! (PCGS # 10987) . Estimated Value $500 - 550. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Unsold
Lot 1180		1883 Hawaiian Quarter Dollar. NGC graded MS-64. Frosty and lightly toned. A lustrous example of the most affordable denomination from the Kalakaua series of silver coins. A one-year Type. King Kalakaua reigned from 1874 until his death in 1891 (PCGS # 10987) . Estimated Value $350 - 400. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $368
