Lot Title: 1918-D AU details/cleaned.
Description: Mike Wrinkle Collection. Champagne patina suggests rather original eye-appeal at first glance, and there is more than enough luster to accommodate at least an AU-55 technical grade. A closer look unfortunately reveals a multitude of brief, feathery hairlines scattered across both sides, and they verify that the coin has been at least modestly cleaned. Still, though a bit excessively bright, proper storage may help this better date half recover much of the missing eye-appeal of a more original coin. (PCGS# 006575)

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: $350.00

1918-D PCGS MS-64.
Bud's Walker Duplicates. Any early branch-mint Walker will prove expensive at the gem level, placing great demand and desirability on MS-64 coins, especially when they look this nice. Flowing satiny...
618The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$290.00
1918-D ICG AU-50.
A complete lack of luster and moderate wear is at odds with the ICG AU-50 assessment. An XF-40 grade seems more in keeping with current grading standards, although at that, this 1918-D becomes quite...
510The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$775.00
1918-D MS-60, cleaned..
Patchy hairlines occupy some of the northwest quadrant of the obverse and an area beneath Liberty's outstretched arm, making it likely that this early walker would fail certification, but for the...

1918-D XF-45++.
A few ticks and some very delicate hairlines manifest themselves as the only notable detractions on the natural light silver-grey surfaces of this early Walking Liberty Half Dollar. Unusual for an...

1918-D AU-50.
This Denver Branch Mint issue is quite elusive in upper grades of MS-63 and higher. This exemplary, but lightly circulated example exhibits a golden blush gracing its satiny, silver-gray surfaces. ...
654The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$425.00
1918-D AU-55 Cleaned.
Strong detail remains on this example that has been cleaned and shows a light cloudy haze in areas.
1142The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$2,200.00
1918-D NGC MS-63.
This date has proven to be evasive in the higher grade levels. Its satiny surfaces complement its lustrous white aspect. This piece is exceedingly pristine with the striking definition typical for...
