552The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/26/2013$875.00
1889 NGC PF-66.
French Connection Estate. Sublime luster emanates from the fields and gives much the appearance of a circulation strike, but specialists know that 1889 is the one year in the series where proofs...
921The Collectors' Auction 2011 on 10/21/2011$450.00
1889 NGC PF-65.
Minimal contrast is, if anything, slightly diminished by liquid amber coloration across the entire coin. Under certain lighting angles, flickers of electric magenta flash into view here and there, as...
518The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$450.00
1889 NGC PF-65.
The 1889 Liberty nickel is a classic issue for which it is sometimes near impossible to differentiate proofs from business-strikes. NGC's proof assessment is probably correct, since their excellent...
300The Collectors' Auction 2010 on 10/15/2010$500.00
1889 PCI MS-65 and a 1926 Buffalo nickel PCGS MS-66.
1889 has notoriety for prooflike business-strikes and lustrous proofs, so it is quite possible that PCI incorrectly calls this a mint-state coin. Regardless of striking format, the grade of...
374The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$360.00
1889 NGC MS-62, and an 1892 NGC (no line) MS-64.
Both of these liberty nickels are well struck and certified by NGC at the mint-state level. The 1889 is graded MS-62 due to an abraded cheek, while the 1892 is graded MS-64 in a no-line holder. ...
375The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$525.00
1889 NGC PF-65.
Marvelous apricot-yellow patina consumes the entire surface area, sparkling with citrus-orange iridescence in some locations. In no way does the effect subdue the underlying reflectivity, as this is...
1132The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$370.00
1889 PCI MS-65.
All reputable grading service would likely agree with PCI and grade this coin a solid MS-65. It is fully struck, highly lustrous, problem free, and very attractive. It almost has a prooflike...
454The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$0.00
1889 PCGS MS-64.
This piece's delicate satinlike surfaces exhibit dappled gold and gray hues. A scant number of ticks are noticed, upon close inspection, and the design elements are mostly bold.
