Description:
|
Captain Green Collection. Collector appeal: "B" for the average grade range estimate of Fine to VF. Very little is required to upgrade the eye-appeal for this much nicer collection, as the most famous keys 1877 grades VF-30 with terrific eye-appeal. However, 1909-S (VF/corroded/scratched) definitely does not match up well with a set that generally offers great, naturally chocolate- or walnut-brown representatives. Additional highlights will prove numerous, but might include: 1861 (AU/hairline scratches), 1864 CN (AU/light hairlines), 1864 "L" (VF), 1866 (VF), 1869 (net VF), 1869/69 (XF and a fantastic coin, by far a major highlight of the set), 1870 (XF), 1872 (VF+),1873 (XF), 1876 (XF), 1886 (XF or very close, and 1908-S (VF). The sheer number of nicer coins as listed should well-exemplify the pleasing quality offered here.
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.
