Military Endorsement. A lovely uncancelled Richmond $50 with strong color, attractive paper, and a well deserved ‘EPQ’ designation. Issued by Edward A. Palfrey, Captain and ACS, on September 27th, 1861. Three vignettes include a central vignette of Pallas (agriculture) and Ceres (industry), one of George Washington at right, and Justice at left. Signatures are still […]

PF-4. Vignettes display George Washington in the center and Tellus on the left. Well printed with a bright appearance.

Breen-8002. Just 4 original CSA half dollars were struck. NYC coin dealer J.W. Scott purchased the dies in 1879. He also purchased 500 1861 Seated Halves (allegedly O-mints), planed off the design of the Federal reverse and struck the CSA reverse. This is a particularly nice coin for the grade. The CSA side is well […]

A well-detailed example with smooth surfaces and attractive original toning in deeper slate-gray hues. Luster remains evident beneath the patina, and overall eye appeal is solid for the grade. Old green label holder.

A scarce date with a mintage of 96,000 and the issue saw heavy circulation, resulting in a low survival rate of well circulated coins. In fact, no mint state examples are known. This is an attractive choice Fine with a bold LIBERTY and pleasing natural gray surfaces.

A scarce date with a mintage of 96,000 and a low survival rate of mostly low quality coins. In fact, a mint state 1861-S has never been grade at PCGS or NGC. This is a very attractive example with soft silver-gray surfaces that show smooth, even circulation wear with strong remaining detail throughout Liberty’s seated […]

Outstanding for the grade with a sharp strike and strong silvery luster. The surfaces are choice with just minor tics, well within the allowance for the grade. Remnants of a 0 are visible at the base of the second 1 in the date.

Block CSA Watermark. A great note that displays strong color, premium paper, and 4 wide margins. A central vignette features slaves hoeing cotton. John C. Calhoun is portrayed on the left and Columbia is displayed on the right. Stamps of 3 interest payments are located on the back.

A full border wraps around bold black and green color. The premium paper is bright and original. Very eye appealing!
