Lot 4012		1919 Liberty Walking Half Dollar. PCGS graded MS-65. Although many Philadelphia coins are considered much more common than mintmarked coins of the same date, the Population Reports demonstrate that coins like this 1919 Half Dollar are very scarce in their own right, especially in gem grades as offered here. Only 34 have been graded as such by PCGS, with just 20 graded higher. Compare this with later dates from the 1940s that show thousands of coins graded in gem. This piece is well struck, and boasts full white luster throughout. Most of Liberty's hand is visible, but lacks the definition on her thumb that is seldom seen on these early issues. One for specialist who needs a full-white gem. Estimated Value $3,200 - 3,500. View details	Realized $3,220
Lot 4013		1921. PCGS graded MS-64. One of the key dates to the series, this one with light pinkish toning over lustrous fields. Seldom found in grades even approaching this, and nearly a full gem, so bid accordingly. Estimated Value $3,500 - 4,000. View details	Realized $4,830

Typical handling marks from a century as "inventory" at some forgotten treasury vault. Remarkably, six bags of 1,000 coins turned up in the Treasury release of silver dollars in 1962-3. Most show moderate to heavy bag marks, but are highly desirable as type coins. Estimated Value $600 - 800. View details	Realized $776
Lot 4016		1872 Liberty Seated Dollar. Proof 58. This coin is only slightly mishandled and likely never circulated. The fields show moderate hairlines and only a few signs of contact with other coins. As we know, the delicate mirror fields seem to attract every kind of problem, and true gems are extremely rare. Still untoned, this one is quite bright and very appealing. Estimated Value $800 - 1,000. View details	Realized $978

Lot 4020		1880 Morgan Dollar. NGC graded MS-66. Flashy and white, this Morgan Dollar is one of the finest graded of this date. The devices are especially frosty and white, and the coin is extremely clean, showing very few signs of contact on Liberty's face or in the fields. Third reverse type, with the 7 overdate high, just showing under lower part of the second 8 in the date. A sparkler for the specialist. Estimated Value $1,250 - 1,500. View details	Realized $1,668

Lot 4024		1893-CC Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-62. Frosty white luster with some light toning starting to form around the edges. Well struck and a difficult date to locate in high grade.

Lot 4025		1893-O Morgan Dollar. PCGS graded MS-61. A hint of golden toning around the peripheries. Typical flatness over Liberty's ear, and appealing for the grade. Estimated Value $1,200 - 1,500. View details	Realized $1,438
Lot 4026		1902-O Morgan Dollar. MS-64 Deep Mirror Prooflike. Deep mirrors in the fields, and with clean surfaces. A glass will note a few swirling hairlines from some past cleaning.
