Lot 1060		1849-C. Closed Wreath. PCGS graded AU-58 PQ. CAC Approved. Only 11,634 minted of which merely 150 examples are estimated to have survived. Mostly untoned with lots of luster. On June 10 and on June 13, die pairs for 1849-C gold dollars were shipped from the Philadelphia Mint (where dies for branch mints were made) to Charlotte. On July 10, two more reverses were sent. Most probably, the shipment of June 10 had the "old" reveres with open wreath, as used on Philadelphia Mint coins earlier in the year, but in this instance with a tiny C mintmark, creating the 1849-C Open Wreath of which just five specimens are known today. From the other dies were made the 1849-C Closed Wreath, to the extent of the aforementioned 11,634 pieces, a quantity just about half of that of the next smallest production, that of the Dahlonega Mint, and but a tiny fraction of that registered at Philadelphia. Pop 12; 17 finer (PCGS # 7505) . Estimated Value $3,500 - 3,800. The William H & Beuelaress K. Helem Collection. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $10,206
Lot 1061		1849-D. PCGS graded AU-53 CAC Approved. Lightly toned. Lustrous. Only 21,588 minted of which merely 300 examples are estimated to have survived. The obverse on the 1849-D presents an altogether different appearance than the Philadelphia Mint version; with the relief seeming to be higher, with the portrait quite bold, and bearing a very high rim. The reverse is of the Open Wreath style with delicate berries. Mintmark D slightly to left of bow knot. Under magnification, both obverse and reverse dies show evidence of rust (PCGS # 7507) . Estimated Value $1,900 - 2,000. The William H & Beuelaress K. Helem Collection. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,875

Lot 1063		1851. NGC graded MS-66. A needle sharp strike with a blush of delicate golden toning. Bright mint luster throughout, and attractive, very much so, with almost pulsating golden hue on both sides. All this is perhaps obvious from the photos. What we need to emphasize too is that the strike is customarily crisp and detailed for the 1851-P issue with the usual sharp metal flows into the deepest recesses of the dies on both sides. Pop 17; 7 finer (PCGS # 7513) . Estimated Value $5,000 - 6,000. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $5,405

Lot 1071		1851-D. PCGS graded EF-45. Well struck with a hint of light golden toning. Only 9,882 minted of which only 175 examples are estimated to have survived. For the collector desiring a nice high grade circulated Dahlonega Mint gold dollar for his or her type set, this is an ideal candidate. As with all coinage, however, it is important to remember that mintage figures tell only part of the story. While we suggest that a mintage of under 10,000 coins is rather high for these issues, this mintage would suggest a major rarity if in the context of Philadelphia Mint gold dollars of this same design. Pop 11; 104 finer (PCGS # 7515) . Estimated Value $1,300 - 1,400. The William H & Beuelaress K. Helem Collection. View details and enlarged photos Check results on similar lots	Realized $2,070
Lot 1072		1852. PCGS graded MS-63 PQ. CAC Approved. Well struck. A gold, untoned example, as crisp and lustrous as when it was first issued.

Only 11,515 minted of which merely 150 examples are estimated to have survived. Although the surfaces do show very minor abrasions from circulation, overall, this is one of the finer About Uncirculated 1853-C gold dollars. Winter notes that this is one of the rarest Charlotte Mint gold dollars in Mint condition, so a lovely AU58 is the ideal candidate. Pop 9; 22 finer (PCGS # 7522) . Estimated Value $3,000 - 3,300.

Lot 1098		1853-D. PCGS graded AU-58. Well struck with lovely golden toning. Only 6,583 minted of which merely 125 examples are estimated to have survived. Pop 22; 12 finer (PCGS # 7523) . Die note: Under magnification the reverse is unusual. Probably from treatment in the machine shop at the Dahlonega Mint--where something less than delicate finessing was employed--the die has gained a number of raised lines, possibly removed rust or clash marks, a berry is solidly wedded to the base of T (UNITED), and there are other idiosyncrasies. Both obverse and reverse may have been relapped. Estimated Value $3,500 - 3,600. The William H & Beuelaress K. Helem Collection.

Lot 1101		1854. PCGS graded AU-55. CAC Approved. Untoned and lustrous. Final year of this short-lived Type (1849-54). Philadelphia made the transition by striking both the Type 1 and Type 2 dollars.
