Lot #AuctionCurrent Bid or Hammer PriceDescription
372The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$400.00
1879 PCGS PF-65 (green label).
Splashes of honey-tan on the portrait helps accentuate slight cameo effect, though tactile feel suggests a generally brilliant proof. Low magnification finds a small planchet flake attached to the...
332The Collectors' Auction 2012 on 10/05/2012$1,000.00
1879 NGC PF-67 CAMEO.
Ivory-white frost layers Liberty's portrait, providing the needed contrast against liquid-nickel fields. Two tiny, grey carbon flecks dot her cheek, while the reverse seems completely free form...
967The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$310.00
1879 NGC PF-64.
Likely conserved at some point, the brilliant surface displays only a small swath of tint above the coronet. Minor planchet anomalies are as-struck, and include patchy areas beneath the chin and in...
968The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$500.00
1879 (B06) NGC MS-65.
Dove-grey patina glimmers pleasantly as light captures the underlying luster, and there is some semblance of cameo effect in spite of the correct circulation strike attribution. Slightly streaky...
461The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$300.00
1879 (P02a, plate coin) PCGS PF-64.
1879 P02a, Plate coin. A broad planchet defect rests in the field right of "OF", and the obverse is speckled with dashes of tin-grey toning. A minor scratch on the jaw has some impact on technical...
462The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$475.00
1879 PCGS PF-65 (green label).
Almond-beige tone drapes the surfaces, and might inhibit contrast to mild extent, but the devices are still obviously nicely frosted and delicately poised over reflective fields. A handful of minor...
464The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$450.00
1879 (P03, plate coin) PCGS PF-65 green label.
1879 P03, Plate coin. The devices are struck with very powerful details, better than what is normally seen. Lead-grey patina is endowed with a multitude of tiny olive-grey flecks that tend toward a...
353The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$850.00
1879 PCGS PF-66CAM.
Each side gleams with watery silver-white surfaces and excellent contrast between the frosty devices and colorless fields. At least a half-dozen tiny ticks appear on Liberty's cheek and suggest that...
523The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$625.00
1879 NGC PF-66.
Mild cameo effect can be discerned for the obverse, while the general brilliance is very good on each side. "9" in the date is filled with die defects.
524The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,150.00
1879 NGC PF-67*.
Borderline cameo contrast undoubtedly led to the "star" designation, but in addition, this proof three-cent nickel simply has the "it factor" that makes it an exceedingly attractive coin. Careful...
909The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$450.00
1879 NGC PF-65.
This awesome Proof could very easily have been designated as a Cameo. The devices are milky white, and the fields are deep mirrors.
1087The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$280.00
1879 NGC PF-63.
Steel gray surfaces which reveal some areas that reflect a satinlike aspect. The detail is outstanding.
1088The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$370.00
1879 PCGS PF-64.
A sparkling, pristine example. Some microscopic specks are barely discernible, even with a glass. The glistening mirrored surfaces enhance the superb strike.
