1835 XF details/cleaned. 1835 XF details/cleaned.
Lot Title: 1835 XF details/cleaned.
Description: 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.

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.

Low Estimate: $425.00
High Estimate: $525.00
Lot Status: Bidding has been closed for this lot.
Hammered Price: $450.00
Price Realized: $517.50

Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
1043The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$575.00
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...
1044The 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...
877The 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...
838The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$1,100.00
1835 PCGS AU-50.
Lemon-gold color is noticeably lustrous near the edge on both sides, with percolating effect through the peripheral lettering of the reverse. A nice clashed die has filled in some extra details...
839The 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...
1025The 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...
901The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$600.00
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...
992The 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...
901The 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.
902The 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...
903The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$1,100.00
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...
