Lot Title:
|
1882 NGC MS-61 and three other NGC certified gold type coins.
|
Description:
|
NGC has judiciously applied the MS-61 grade to each member of this quartet, which totals $15 in face value. Quarter eagles include 1878 and 1926, and half-eagles include 1882 and 1903-S. For the first three coins, mediocre strike quality seems to be as much to blame as anything for the lower mint-state grade, while the latter coin is moderately abraded. All of these are consistently bright in this four coin lot.

1882 NGC MS-62.
|
Stars are well formed, and Liberty's hair is generally sharp except for trivial softness over the ear. Surface texture displays a classic "halo effect" around the outer stars, and amplifies the... |

1882 PCGS MS-64.
|
Mint-green iridescence greets the rims and accents fully formed stars that attest to an outstanding strike. A frosty coin, the surfaces are possibly a trifle more affected by ticks than usual for... |

1882 NGC PF-63 Cameo.
|
The PF-63 grade tends to give an indication that moderate hairlines are present, restricting the appeal of the proof coin, but such is not the case here. Rather, it is a profusion of handling marks... |
