Copies of colonial issues are included in this lot. First is an 1869 John Bolen copy of the LIBERNATUS pattern, one of about forty pieces struck in copper. 160.5 grains, apparently an early copy from perfect dies, XF with mint red surrounding the devices. Next is a ca. 1860 William Idler copy of Getz' Washington half-dollar pattern, dated 1792, "copy" not indicated on reverse. 219.1 grains, finely preserved with no rim bumps and unmarked surfaces. These dies are known to have been muled with store cards. Two item lot.
This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
