389The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$775.00
1935 Spanish Trail UNC details/cleaned.
Delicate, feathery hairlines lead up and to the left in the obverse fields, which leads to our disclaimer of an innocuous, old cleaning. While probably blast white at some point as a result, storage...
390The Collectors' Auction - 2014 on 10/17/2014$1,150.00
1935 Spanish Trail NGC MS-64.
The eye-appeal seems to be very nearly that of MS-65 since the broad expanse of the fields shows very limited contact and terrific satin texture. On the reverse, a brief scratch stretches from Bovina...
552The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$975.00
1935 SpanishTrail NGC MS-64 (no line).
7070 Collection. The right grade in the right holder, surfaces exude original quality, with the edge showing deep toning accents flung up toward the upper edge. Essentially hairline free, the...
553The Collectors' Auction 2013 on 10/18/2013$1,050.00
1935 Spanish Trail NGC MS-65.
Eunice Peters Estate. The entire, broad obverse field shows wonderful freedom from contact marks, with only a trivial hairline flung off into the lower left field. A single contact mark rests just...
1107The Midwest Summer Sale 2012 on 07/27/2012$1,000.00
1935 SpanishTrail. PCGS MS-63 (green label).
Looking for all the world like an undergraded coin, the fields are amazingly clean and free from distraction, with a singular tiny point of contact seen flung off the obverse far left. A couple of...
291The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$975.00
1935 Spanish Trail. AU/cleaned.
Luster remains absolutely full and complete on the obverse, leading to a mint-state assessment of that side, but the reverse displays hints of rub on the longhorn's portrait. Unfortunately, many...
292The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,400.00
1935 Spanish Trail. PCGS MS-65.
Confirming that the surfaces are mark-free for this Spanish Trail is easily facilitated by use of a loupe, but assessing luster is not quite so simple a task. Moderately dense, silver-brown patina...
293The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,450.00
1935 Spanish Trail. NGC MS-65.
Only two ticks can be seen in the wide-open obverse fields, with but a single tick noticeable on the reverse. Both sides display reasonably strong luster, the cartwheel action augmented by pristine,...
294The Midwest Summer Sale 2011 on 07/29/2011$1,650.00
1935 Spanish Trail. NGC MS-66.
An arctic blast of white frost almost seems to be in contradiction with the desert motifs put forth by the design of the Spanish Trail half-dollar. Surfaces are amazingly clean and utterly untoned,...
197The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$1,200.00
1935 SpanishTrail. NGC MS-64.
(ex-Scotsman 2/12/2010: 444) Proof that there is profit to be made on coins graded conservatively at auction, this pleasing Spanish Trail half-dollar is now graded MS-64 by NGC. An intriguing...
198The Midwest Summer Sale 2010 on 07/23/2010$1,450.00
1935 SpanishTrail. PCGS MS-65.
The huge, wide-open fields are prone to handling marks on coins as big as the half-dollar, yet this gem Spanish Trail has managed to avoid such consequences of its large size. There are no noticeable...
442The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,000.00
1935 SpanishTrail. PCGS Genuine.
Cartwheel effect remains mostly unimpaired by the "altered surfaces" indicated by the PCGS Genuine-94 code, and though it is difficult to see exactly what is "wrong" with this coin, under a good light...
443The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,150.00
1935 SpanishTrail. MS-60.
The flowline luster that sweeps around the wide expanses of this better commem is unimpeded by any spots or noticeable abrasions, leading to a terrific, high quality appearance. Only under the most...
444The Midwest Winter Sale on 02/12/2010$1,050.00
1935 SpanishTrail. MS-63.
An intriguing beige-bronze streak descends across the left third of the reverse, yet does not impact the terrific eye appeal in any negative manner. Indeed, with attractive cartwheels and no...
393The Collectors' Auction 2009 on 10/16/2009$975.00
1935 SpanishTrail. MS-60/light hairlines.
Raised devices are usually where incidental bag marks appear usually appear on coins, but in the case of the Spanish Trail commemorative, it is the wide open fields that prove challenging. From...
1140The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,050.00
1935 SpanishTrail. NGC MS-64.
Disproportionately large, open fields are often prone to handling marks and hairlines for the Spanish Trail issue, but the present example is delightfully free of any obvious distractions. Sleek mint...
1141The Midwest Winter Sale 2009 on 02/13/2009$1,100.00
1935 SpanishTrail. PCGS MS-64.
Refreshingly clean fields provide much impetus for the MS-64 grade, but this Spanish Trail half also offers an excellent strike and clean mint luster. Faintly mottled almond-grey toning can be seen...
1218The Collectors' Auction 2008 on 10/17/2008$1,650.00
1935 Spanish Trail. MS-65.
Strictly natural and very attractive patina imbues this Spanish Trail commemorative with eye appeal that will excite any connoisseur of 100% original coins. For sure, this issue is one of the most...
1262The Collectors' Auction 2007 on 10/19/2007$1,400.00
1935 Spanish Trail. PCGS MS-65.
This example glistens with a silvery luster that's augmented with golden highlights. When viewed at a tilt, delicate die striations are perceived on the expansive open fields. Magnificently struck...
1155The Midwest Winter Sale 2007 on 02/09/2007$1,050.00
1935 Spanish Trail. NGC MS-63.
At first glance, this coin looks like it could be in a MS-97 holder, but upon closer inspection a small line on the obverse, and a small scruffy spot on the reverse were discovered. It is fully...
1224The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$1,300.00
1935 Spanish Trail. MS-64.
Only grading this coin MS-64 is, perhaps, a little conservative as the fields are so clean. However, the luster might need to be stronger to earn that next grade level. Solid detail and bright...
1225The Collector's Auction on 10/20/2006$1,450.00
1935 Spanish Trail. MS-64+.
This is one of those Commemoratives that are super tough to find in higher grades. This example has stellar fields and a thriving strike. It is amazing that a coin with fields as big as this can...
1594The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$1,200.00
1935 Spanish Trail. NGC MS-64.
It is amazing that a coin with fields like this can be this clean. You will be hard pressed to find any marks on this coin. It is 100% covered in pewter tones with subtle hues of gold and magenta. ...
1595The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$1,300.00
1935 SpanishTrail. PCGS MS-64..
Struck in commemoration of the 400th anniversary of the journey undertaken by Cabeza de Vaca in 1535 through present day Florida, Texas, and Mexico. The mintage was a mere 10,008. A couple ticks are...
1596The Midwest Summer Sale 2006 on 07/21/2006$1,250.00
1935 Spanish Trail. ANACS MS-64.
The low issuance of 10,008 represents those pieces sold plus the eight produced for that year's annual assay commission. As is the case with upper grade specimens of this Commemorative, this piece...
