1835 NGC AU details/obverse scratched.
|
Ronald Zink Early Type Collection. One can vehemently protest NGC's decision not to offer a straight grade, as the two so-called "scratches" amount to very brief distractions just behind the... |

1044 | The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014 | $900.00 |
1835 NGC AU-53.
|
Courteous Collection of Early Type. Exceptionally even, stable olive-gold patina displays some steamy tendencies, as if a fragile layer of haze had settled over each side, although there is no... |

877 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012 | $700.00 |
1835 PCGS XF-40.
|
Classic Head gold has been touted as "too cheap" for decades, and that remains true even today. Early U.S. gold with beautiful designs, well preserved and original quality at a price scarcely above... |
|
837 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $450.00 |
1835 XF details/cleaned.
|
Some original patina has escaped the effects of being cleaned, but unmistakable hairlines sweep across both sides of this 1835 half-eagle. A rim tick is noted on the reverse left side. |
|
839 | The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010 | $1,350.00 |
1835 NGC AU-55.
|
Light rub has had little negative impact on radiant yellow-gold luster, and for that matter, hardly any definition has been lost to wear. Central motifs are decently brought up by the dies, but the... |

1025 | The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010 | $525.00 |
1835 XF details/cleaned.
|
Very likely in years past, this 1835 half-eagle would have been accepted for certification, since the noted cleaning is quite mild by comparison to many in slabs already. A minor trace of luster... |

1835 PCGS XF-40.

Olive-gold patina adorns the fields of this outstandingly original classic head, providing terrific appeal for the collector who appreciates unmolested gold type coins. A few more bagmarks than... |

992 | The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008 | $1,350.00 |
1835 NGC AU-55.
|
A "choice AU" grade should imply generous mint luster, and such is the case here. A majority of the original cartwheel effect remains on this lemon-gold coin, and a decent strike leaves only the... |

901 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $400.00 |
1835 Classic Head half-eagle, VF-35
|
Rather a bit pale and dull, but not an unattractive coin. Only insignificantly blemished by an occasional handling mark. |
|
902 | The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008 | $725.00 |
1835 Classic Head half-eagle, XF-45 cleaned
|
Despite the fact that much of this Classic Head's original surface has been removed, glimmers of mint luster can still be found at the extreme periphery of each side, especially of the obverse. Even... |

1835 Classic Head half-eagle, NGC AU-53

Those collectors who decry the difficulty of finding gold coins with some good, original "skin" will be genuinely pleased with the opportunity afforded by the present lot. This lovely Classic Head... |
