1838 NGC XF-45. 1838 NGC XF-45.
Lot Title: 1838 NGC XF-45.
Description: Ronald Zink Early Type Collection. Slightly pale, thin patina suggests conservation at some point, but there is no shortage of sparkling luster traveling between the stars. Some attempt may have been made to scribble away a scratch in front of Liberty's forehead, and that represents the sole complaint for this pleasing type coin. (PCGS# 008176)

1838 NGC VF-35.
The VF-35 grade matches up perfectly with utterly delightful vintage character that sees the eye-appeal carried by vivid orange accents embedded into the overall powder-gold color scheme. This tends...
1046The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$450.00
1838 NGC XF details/mount removed.
Fortunately, the "mount removed" was previously attached only at the extreme top edge, meaning it was able to be repaired without impacting the very attractive overall sharpness, which is quite...
1027The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$925.00
1838 NGC AU details/improperly cleaned
Too stark to warrant a straight grade, luster nonetheless manages to prevail even on the obverse, where weak cartwheel effect can still be seen under proper lighting conditions. Placement in a proper...
773The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$775.00
1838 ANACS AU details/cleaned.
Thoroughly cleaned, but not harshly so, as underlying mint luster continues to sparkle off each side. Hairlines appear only at certain viewing angles.
1145The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$1,050.00
1838 AU.
Dual tone embraces the original surfaces, providing reddish accents around the primary devices and atop the rim. Remaining luster is suggestive of an AU-50 grade, and were it not for a dig on the...
1146The Midwest Summer Sale on 07/24/2009$2,200.00
1838 NGC AU-58.
An old dip appears to have recovered considerably, as new patina has overcome some of the background pallor. Fortunately, plenty of luster retains presence between the stars, and upon closer...
996The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,500.00
1838 NGC AU-55.
Excellent color proclaims a high degree of original preservation for this handsome gold type coin. Evidently produced off of fairly new dies, the strike is sharp across the portrait, though some stars...
905The Midwest Winter Sale 2008 on 02/08/2008$1,000.00
1838 (McCloskey 1) Classic Head half-eagle, NGC AU-55
Happily, the surfaces of this early gold piece retain much of their original quality. While a bit of "crust" remains apparent throughout, protected areas are nicely illuminated with obvious mint...
1035The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$600.00
1838 XF-40 Cleaned, AU Details.
Orange hues are discerned on this Philadelphia specimen from the terminal year for this design. The surfaces are indicative of a delicate cleaning. Lightly hairlined and minimally marked, it’s a...
1036The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$725.00
1838 XF-45.
Hints of original luster permeate from this "Large Arrows, Small 5" variety's orange-gold surfaces. An sprinkling of minute contact ticks are perceived, but these do not diminish the heirloom aspect...
1037The Midwest Summer Sale 2007 on 07/27/2007$1,825.00
1838 NGC AU-55.
A radiant yellow-gold brilliance bursts from this popular type issue's magnificent surfaces. Mildly marked on both its fields and devices, its complementary design motifs are very prominent.
978The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$1,650.00
1838 NGC AU-55.
Only faint traces of wear are perceived on this popular type issue. Its lustrous, rich yellow aspect is embellished with an orange opulence that gives it an heirloom aspect. The observed surface...
1079The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/17/2006$725.00
1838 XF-45.
Original, bright golden surfaces with a trace of luster. Some may consider this coin nice enough to call AU, but it probably falls just short. Still, this is a very appealing XF+ with strong...
