CAC. Truly superb, graded MS66+ Red Brown by PCGS and CAC approved. Rich, original mostly red color blends warm red and chocolate-brown tones over smooth, lustrous surfaces. The strike is sharp, with crisp detail in the shield and wreath. Marks are minimal, and eye appeal is exceptional.

A beautiful Premium Gem with rich copper-red surfaces and a needle-sharp strike. The design features are frosted while the fields are highly reflective and stunning. Wonderfully original, mark-free and spot-free, and housed in an old green label ‘rattler’. This is a spectacular early copper proof, and a quality that is rarely encountered! No Red designated […]

With Motto. Deep reflective mirrored surfaces and a bold strike with richly frosted design features. The cameo contrast is strong and the fields are clean with just a hint of peripheral toning. Excellent eye appeal!

Sharply detailed with bright original mint luster, highlighted by rich yellow-gold color.

Old green label holder.

Rich original brown surfaces with warm chocolate, olive, and faded red undertones. Luster remains strong beneath the patina and the strike is very sharp. A wholesome, problem-free Mint State example of this better early date.
