Deep mirrored Morgan dollars are a pleasure to handle when located at the gem grade level. This Westend Avenue release exhibits sharply mirrored fields and corresponding reflective luster. As with all DMPLs, field abrasions are amplified leading to difficulties being certified as a gem. Obverse and reverse mirrors are consistent with ample die polish lines visible under 10x. The die area surrounding the tail feathers has been poorly finished with a host of randomly orientated die polish lines. Faint peripheral copper-gold is more prevalent on the obverse. A worthy specimen for those that wish to own a higher end DMPL Morgan, especially with Carson City mintmark. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.

Mintage for the 1906 $10 gold San Francisco issues was reported to be 457,000.

Civil War buffs have long appreciated the research conducted by Randy Wiley which defined the die usage sequencing for the 1861-O issue across Union, State of Louisiana, and Confederate States administrations. Many have attempt to collect all 15 die pairings except for the four piece W-12 extreme rarity. GFRC is pleased to be offering a near-gem specimen struck during the Louisiana administration. Images accurately capture the obverse center gold toning and its peripheral blues with similar shades on the reverse. Overall eye appeal is superb as the surfaces emit ample frosted luster with vibrant cartwheels. Strike is nearly complete with stars 7 and 8 lacking center points as the only deficiency. This piece has proven to be difficult to attributed even for this experienced specialist. Since struck for fresh dies, there are no die cracks whatsoever. The reverse has an obvious die lump on AME(R)ICA which isolated Reverse D (W-6). The obverse date position and slope indicates Obverse 4 (W-7). However there is no published die pairing of Obverse 4 with Reverse D. Is this a new die pairing? Housed in NGC Gen 17 (2004-2008) holder with CAC approval.

A rare New Orleans mint era that was immediately purchased after being showcased in the Daily Blog. Following is an excerpt from this piece's listing in The Definitive Resource for Liberty Seated Dime Collectors online reference. "During late July 2015, Ken Rubin contacted the author concerning an 1851 New Orleans dime purchased in PCGS AU50 with completely missing Star 7. His concern was that a Chinese counterfeit might be at hand a no 1851-O dimes were known with a missing Star 7. The coin in question was shipped for study. Inspection clearly indicated the Seated dime in question was genuine. The missing Star 7 was the result of a minting error; most likely a greased filled die for a short period of time. The fact that Star 6 and Liberty's facial details are not disturbed is amazing. The foreign material that filled the Star 7 crevice on the die was localized leaving only a faint impression of the star at top most point." Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder.
	Seated 10C	1865-S	VF30	PCGS 32749228	F-103	Choice	HOLD $1150	New September 22! Low CAC Population, Bold Strike, Natural Coin Gray Patina, Perfectly Choice. Locating strictly original 1865 San Francisco strike with choice surfaces takes patience. CAC has approved only 24 pieces in all grades with two at the offered grade level. This F-103 example brings a bold strike though the mintmark is weak yet typical of the issue. Surfaces are toned a natural coin gray with slight planchet delamination in the mid-right obverse field. Otherwise the fields are pristine with some "dirt" in the protected area. A great selection for those seeking the best possible circulated Liberty Seated coinage.

What a special offering when checking the CAC population report! This evenly worn 1866 dime is the lowest graded example approved by CAC with the next graded piece being a VF20. Few 1866 dimes went into circulation and remained there for extended periods leading to a high rarity status when found this optimally worn.

The Dahlonega one-dollar gold piece series consists of 13 coins, spanning the years 1849 to 1861. The present sale includes a near-complete set, less the 1861-D stopper, of which only 1,250 examples were struck. All of the coins in the series are scarce, and this 1850-D is typical, with a mintage of 9,882 pieces. This yellow-gold example reveals remaining luster in the protected areas, and the strike is typical for the issue, with a few soft stars noted. The reverse die is rotated 30-degress clockwise, not an unusual feature in this series. Housed in PCGS Gen 3.0 (1990-1993) old green holder.

Consignor Price Reduction. 1872 San Francisco struck Seated quarters were limited to a mintage of 83,000. As with most dates of that era, low survival rates abound leading to difficulties for present day collectors. A review of the CAC population report indicates only eight piece certified as choice in all grades. Two of the nine are at the AG03 level. GFRC is pleased to be offering on of those two AG03 examples. Please check the images that illustrate natural coin gray patina and surprisingly unmarked surfaces given the extensive time in circulation. An excellent specimen until a higher graded example appears on the market. Housed in new large font NGC holde with CAC approval.

U.S. gold specialists should take note of this Twin Lakes offering given the tiny mintage of 7,520. The 1889 date is a very scarce issue in all grades. Most survivors are found with partially mirrored surfaces as is the case for this example. Angled lighting review reveals bright reflectance and a melting of the darker honey-gold in-hand coloration. Surfaces are nicely preserved and choice. Housed in PCGS Gen 3.1 (1993-1998) old green label holder.
	Seated $1	1844	MS63	PCGS 82924218		Choice	$12500	New September 19! Rare Grade, Doubled Die Obverse, Golden Coloration, Partially Mirrored Fields . Consignor Price Reduction - Only 20,000 1844 dated Seated dollar were struck with a doubled obverse die which easily validates this offering as a circulation strike. With 10x, four stripes on each of the vertical shield lines is easily confirmed. This is a challenging date which is seldom offered at the Mint State level. PCGS population report indicates nine at grade with four finer. Light golden toning is evident on both sides with darker shades at the date and a horizontal toning band on the reverse. Partially mirrored fields result in reflective luster under angled lighting. A lovely example for the advanced collector. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder. This piece has proven difficult to photograph leading to the decision to employ the PCGD TruView for proper presentation.

Tough Date, Natural Coin Gray, Steely Fields, Massachusetts Collection. 1860 brought the final usage of the With Stars obverse hub design at the San Francisco mint while the Philadelphia mint converted to Longacre's new With Legend design. Mintage for the old design was only 140,000 pieces with the usual western frontier survival rate issues. This newly released Massachusetts Collection duplicate has been carefully preserved with natural coin gray patina on both sides. Strike is close to complete with just the top of Liberty's head lacking full definition. Steely fields are noted under angled lighting. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder.
	Seated 10C	1877 Type 1 Reverse	MS64	PCGS 41468390		Choice	$650	New September 19! Lazy D(I)ME, Thick White Mint Frost, Brilliant Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels, Massachusetts Collection. Ex. Gerry Fortin Reference Collection. This Massachusetts Collection duplicate has a storied past as the 1877 Type 1 reverse F-107 plate coin within The Definitive Resource for Liberty Seated Dime Variety Collectors online reference. It was sold into this collection followed by being crossed by the consignor into a new PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder. The original GFRC description reads as follows; "1877 Philadelphia strikes have a huge mintage of over 7,000,000 but locating choice Mint State examples will be challenging. One would expect to see many offered on the market place at any one time but that is not the case. Offered here is a brilliant frosted example from my reference collection and the Type 1 reverse F-107 web-book plate coin. Strike is hammered with bold devices including upper reverse wreath grains and the corn ears. Under a light source, cartwheel luster is quite vibrant." The F-107 die variety can be easily attributed by a lazy I in DIME. Purchased January 2001 and in the Fortin collection until being sold during December 2018.
	Seated 10C	1877 Type 2 Reverse	AU58	PCGS 30718075		Choice	$225	New September 19! Perfect AU58, Frosted Luster, Old Album Toning, Complete Strike, Massachusetts Collection. A perfect 1877 Type 2 reverse F-110 dime with old album toning. Obverse colors include center gray surround by aquamarine along with some peripheral gold. That same coloration extends over to the reverse and nicely frames copper-gold inner shades. Strike is complete and surfaces are pristine. Sold into the Massachusetts Collection during my early years as a Seated dime researcher via eBay and being a raw piece. Our consignor has done all the heavy lifting with grading and CAC approval. Let's see how long this one lasts on the price list. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder.
	Seated 50C	1841-O Baseball Crack Rev	EF40	PCGS 25544491	WB-2	Original	$2450	New September 19! Baseball Die Crack Reverse, Original, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. The Bugert reference identifies the WB-2 as a scarce variety, popular with collectors due to the web of reverse die cracks. Commonly referred to as the “baseball die crack reverse,” a patchwork of reverse lines is easily visible to the naked eye, making for a distinct appearance. This is a middle die-state example, with the crack below OF A(MERICA) not yet forming. The patina of this piece is silver-gray, with sandy overtones more evident on the reverse. Marks are scattered, apart from some chatter inside star 6. Many varieties within the Liberty Seated series require a glass (and related eyestrain) to make a positive attribution – this is not such a coin! Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.6 (2013-2014) holder with "Medium Mintmark WB-102 Baseball Die Crack Pattern" attribution on label.
	Seated 50C	1844-O Doubled Date	AU50	PCGS 19585884	WB-22	Original	$4500	New September 19! Popular Doubled Date, Original, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. The 1844-O doubled date is a perennial favorite, plainly visible with the naked eye and honored with its own Red Book listing. Die preparation was still an involved affair in this era, and coiners were forced to ignore quality control from time to time. This is a prime example, with a second 1844 clearly punched into the rock and the field above the date. This piece exhibits rose-tan shading on both sides, with additional maroon splashes on the obverse. Remaining luster is minimal, but the real story here is the dramatically doubled date, a variety that is especially prized in higher circulated grades. Housed in a PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) Dupont hologram holder with "RPD FS-303 WB-108" label attribution.
	Seated 50C	1861-O	AU58	raw	W-3	Cleaned	$450	New September 19! Louisiana Strike, Boldly Struck Motifs, Hairlined, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. An 1861-O Liberty Seated half and the initial striking of coinage by the New Orleans mint while under Louisiana Administration. Motifs are fully struck and fun to inspect under a 10x loupe. Steely luster has been marginally impacted by an old cleaning that left light hairlines in the fields on both sides. Ideal for a high grade Dansco album project where device details trump technical preservation.
	Seated 50C	1861-O	AU53	raw	W-11	Cleaned	$2950	New September 19! CSA Obverse Strike, Full Die Crack From Nose to Rim, Complete Strike, Old Clean, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. The 1861-O CSA Obverse strike is a coin that has been desired by specialized collectors since first cataloged by Beistle in 1929. It is found with same die crack at nose as the four CSA-muled halves. The landmark article by Randall Wiley in The Gobrecht Journal #94 discusses the various die states and marriages in great detail. From die state analysis, Wiley further identifies other Confederate strikes (W13-W15), also highly collectible, but not as dramatic. The Cumberland County Dansco contain a high grade CSA Obverse W-11 specimen that presents itself well and showcases a strong die crack from Liberty's nose to the rim. Strike is deeply impressed and pleasing. Unfortunately, this piece has been cleaned with polished surfaces and hairlined fields. The result is considerable reflective luster without cartwheel action. This rare die variety is difficult to price given the high grade and surface conditions. GFRC has taken the best shot at a fair number. Offers are welcomed.
	Seated 50C	1870-S	EF45	raw	WB-1	Market Acceptable	$395	New September 19! Challenging San Francisco Date, Mottled Gold Toning. Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. A challenging San Francisco date regardless of a mintage slightly exceeding 1,000,000 pieces. This date becomes quite scarce in AU or better. The Cumberland County Dansco has yielded a pleasing 1870-S specimen with reflective luster and mottled gold toning. This iridescent appearance is occasional seen and straight graded by the TPGs. The reflective surfaces are just too bright to be strictly original per my experience, thus a Market Acceptable quality rating. An ideal candidate for another Whitman or Dansco bookshelf album project.
	Seated 50C	1873 No Arrows Open 3	VF30	PCGS 06640838	WB-101	Original	HOLD $5500	New September 19! No Arrows, Open 3, Under Appreciated Rarity, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. The No Arrows Open 3 is a key piece in the Seated half series, struck for only a brief period of time, between the production of the closed 3 and With Arrows varieties. The Guide Book gives a mintage of 214,200 coins, but the PCGS population, at 46 pieces in all grades, speaks more effectively to the actual availability of this issue. By way of comparison, the PCGS census for the 1878-S is 34 coins. This example exhibits nice contrast between gray surfaces and lighter high points, with russet hints present in protected areas and more intensely at stars 3-4. A slightly creamy texture suggests an old cleaning, but the piece is pretty nonetheless, and there is no denying the rarity of the variety. Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
	Seated 50C	1874-CC With Arrows	VF20	PCGS 19647206	WB-3a	Original	$3950	New September 19! Railroad Tracks Reverse, Original, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. The popular "railroad tracks" variety is marked by a series of parallel die lines running across (STA)TES on the reverse. The exact cause of the damage is unknown, which likely increases the collector fascination with this plainly visible die defect. Silver and gray patina marks the surfaces of this VF piece, along with a few obverse hints of russet. The coin is slightly glossy from an old clean, but only to a degree considered acceptable by PCGS. Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.5 (2011-2013) holder. The label captures the variety attribution as "Large Arrows WB-102 'Railroad Tracks' Rev" - but even without the attribution this coin remains an 1874-CC, and highly desirable in its own right.
	Seated 50C	1875-S Micro S	EF45	PCGS 80816575	WB-19	Choice	$3750	New September 19! Micro S, Finest Certified, Choice Original, Cumberland County Collection. Consignor Price Reduction, September 2022. Steely luster hosts mottled olive and gray shades, with generous amounts of silver remaining in the protected areas. Hairline-free fields are original and the aesthetic appeal is strong. WB-19, the micro-S variety, with a tiny mintmark and die lump in the obverse shield. The Bugert references notes 29 examples of this die pair traced, with the great majority in lower circulated grades. Strike is typical, with a few stars lightly impressed. This is an attractive example of a scarce variety that can easily be attributed without a glass. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 holder with "Micro S WB-105" attribution on the label.

An extremely rare 1876 Type II/II design hub pairing that is without auctions records. In the new Whitman Mega Red Book, Bowers lists the die pairing without pricing estimates and indicates extremely rare in the footnotes. Most surviving 1876 Trade dollars will be found with Type I/II design hub. GFRC is most excited to handling an example of this major die variety rarity that has nice original surfaces. A light gray patina covers both sides. Under a light source, steely fields comes to life with light gold coloring on the obverse. Fields have a few scattered micro ticks but well within the range of what can be expected at the VF grade level. Housed in 2015 style PCGS holder with "Obv 2 Rev 2" specified on the label. A major die variety offering from the Cumberland County Collection. Please that the GFRC images illustrate light rose coloring on the lower obverse and reverse. This coloring is an artifact of the photography process and not on the coin. This piece is even light gray.

An underrated Philadelphia date that always garners attention when available choice. This VF35 release, from the Port Matilda Collection is essentially perfect for the grade. Pristine surfaces are layered with natural coin gray shades with wear points lightly toned. Strike is typical with some weakness at the eagle's lower left leg. The strict originality definitely floats "my boat" and hope that someone sees it the same way. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.

The 1882 three cent nickel mintage amounted to only 22,200 pieces as the Philadelphia mint ramped down this design and denomination. This date is scarce and difficult to locate in all grades. The Lakeland Collection has released a choice and accurately graded example with dirty pewter coloration. One must grade this issue by the reverse as the obverse comes weakly struck as a rule. Note the filled "2" digit in the date and unabraded surfaces. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.

A choice 1906 New Orleans struck Barber quarter that is scarce in certified AU grades. This Twin Lakes release exhibits brilliant frosted luster and vibrant cartwheels. Accurately graded as light rub is visible on the cheek and lower bust. Fields are essentially unabraded while the reverse has a host of die cracks through the legend and denomination. A light rose patina is noted on the obverse. Overall, a pleasing example of a tough date when certified AU58. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.

The Lakeland Collection is releasing a rare 1869 FS-302 2 cent piece along with being in the condition census for that variety. Bold repunching is easily seen about the 1 and 8 digits. PCGS has graded and attributed only two examples at the MS64 level with none finer. This example offers premium eye appeal given its orange rose-brown coloration along with more prevalent orange-red on the reverse. Fields have a steely texture and provide ample luster during bright light review. Strike is complete with deeply impressed motifs. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.

The Lakeland Collection is back with a Top 100 Variety offering that should garner attention. The 1839-O F-104a die variety features a boldly repunched mintmark (bottom) and a long horizontal bisecting die crack on the reverse. This long die crack must be present for inclusion in a Top 100 set. Surfaces are covered by a crusty gray patina with some "dirt" at the stars. Note the sharply repunched star 8. Strike is excellent and typical for the issue. Housed in new large font NGC holder.

A marvelous 1889 unlisted Seated dime that warrants a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation. When I first laid eyes on this piece, the immediate thought was a CAC submission given the gem surfaces, glowing satiny luster, and oh, the beautiful toning. This dime brings on the eye appeal. The GFRC images suggest obverse finger print toning which is correct. However, my images are again worse case with the coin in hand showcasing more uniform obverse toning. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder.

Only 8,400 Seated half dollars were struck during 1880 along with an additional 975 as proofs. Most 1880 halves come prooflike as is the case for this Twin Lakes release. Fields are partially mirrored while the motifs are lightly frosted. Light rose-gold toning is more obvious near the peripheries. Fields are lightly hairlined leading to an original quality rating. A challenging date that is fairly priced. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
	Seated 50C	1887	AU58	PCGS 13759400		Choice	HOLD $1975	New September 17! Tiny Mintage, Partially Mirrored, Light Silver-Gray, Twin Lakes Collection. 1887 continued the miniscule for Liberty Seated halves with only 5,000 struck for East Coast collectors. Undoubtedly, some of the mintage ended up in circulation. This survivor was probably saved that fate given the lightest of rub on high points. This issue is known for being proof like as is the case here. Fields are sharply reflective during angled lighting review as contrast nicely with the moderately frosted motifs. Silver gray coloration is seen on the obverse while a light rose band is evident on the reverse. A choice example, courtesy of the Twin Lakes Collection, that will please the new owner.

The little sister to the rare 1901-S but still not to be underestimated in terms of collecting challenge in better grades. GFRC welcomes this choice example to the price list courtesy of the Twin Lakes Collection. This is an evenly frosted piece with the resulting granular textured luster plus vibrant cartwheels. Strike is completely executed. Thought the mintage amounted to 1,612,000, PCGS has certified only 7 at the offered grade.

Mintage of 83,000 and a key date in the Liberty Seated quarter series. This important offering is a grade rarity at the AU55 level with only five in all AU grades, per PCGS population report, and five designated as Mint State. This specimen is strictly original with mottled silver gray patina on the obverse while the reverse offers satiny luster with pale golden highlights. Under a 10x loupe, there is minimal observed wear; therefore the assigned grade is unquestionably accurate. Strike is essentially complete with only a few stars on the upper obvere lacking connected star points. Liberty's facial details and hair curls are adequate for the issue while the reverse is fully struck. Bright light viewing reveals ample amounts of vibrant satin luster on both obverse and reverse which GFRC images are unable to capture. The 1872-S date is the no question rarest San Francisco Mint quarter of this type, when compared to earlier challenging issues such as the 1860-S, 1861-S and 1864-S for this honor. Survivors are elusive even in the lower grades with speculation that many examples were melted when the Act of February 12, 1873 changed the weight of this denomination. With only a handful of Mint State survivors, this important AU-55 is included among the finest known. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder and ready for a home in one of the finest Liberty Seated quarter collections being assembled.

From 1923 to 1928, the San Francisco mint issued coinage for only three years; 1923-S, 1927-S, and 1928-S.

Secondly, the repunched mintmark is included in the Top Varieties set. The Upstate New York Collection has released an accurately graded example with colorful ring toning on both sides. Bright light viewing is must as multiple colors are amplified by steely reflective luster. There is one reverse line above the top right wreath that requires mention.

The 1843 F-102 repunched date continues to gain collector following once included in the Top 100 Varieties set. I remember this variety being separately listed in Coin World price guide during the "early" days. Twin Lakes is releasing a choice example with rose-gray toning and lightly frosted surfaces. Luster approaches a steely texture with active cartwheels, more so on the reverse due to a thicker obverse patina. Strike is close to complete with only star 7 lack fully defined center point. Surface quality and coloration reminds me of the web-book plate coin. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder.
	Seated 10C	1851-O	AU58	PCGS 82128697	F-101	Original	$4250	New September 8! Rare Grade, Bold Early Die State Strike, Untoned, Twin Lakes Collection. 1851-O dimes have been underrated for years in AU55 or better. Most are either white and frosty or having funky toning colors. This Twin Lakes example falls in the frosty lot with white luster and active cartwheels. Light rub is seen on the left breast therefore the grading is accurate. After years of research, only a single die pair has been identified for the date. The dies were used extensively and lapped along with way. This example was struck during a middle die state most of the drapery remains. PCGS population is all of four pieces at grade. An important offering from the Twin Lakes Collection.

Hopefully, I won't use up too many JUST BUY IT NOW recommendations as this unlisted 1854-O dime deserves one. Previously from the Fortin reference collection and sold to Twin Lakes. Why do I like this piece so much. First is the eye catching mint frost and corresponding luster during angled lighting review. This luster rocks.... Second is the complete obverse strike, though the lower reverse wreath leaves are not fully defined. Lastly, are the unabraded surfaces and cool reverse die clashing. I was not able to match up this offering with any of the previously listed varieties in the web-book. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.
	Seated 10C	1864-S	AU55	PCGS 31594082	F-101	Original	$1800	New September 8! Civil War San Francisco Issue, Thick Frosted Luster, Speckled Gray Toning, Twin Lakes Collection. When any of the Civil War San Francisco dates appear on the market in higher AU grades, collectors will take notice. Such is the case for the Twin Lakes 1864-S offering. This piece features thick mint bloom across both sides resulting in a frosted luster experience during bright light inspection. Some specked gray appears on the obverse periphery while the reverse less so. Strike is typical of the issue with weak head details. An obverse line in the lower wreath precludes a higher quality rating. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder.
	Seated 10C	1868	AU58	PCGS 35602489	F-111	Choice	$650	New September 8! Scarce Grade, Frosty White, Complete Strike, Twin Lakes Collection. I really don't think that 1868 Philadelphia strikes secure the respect deserved in AU or better. Many struck found their way to Europe and returning in rolls with problem surfaces. This Twin Lakes AU58 example needs to garner attention for its rich frosted luster and complete strike. Cartwheel action is vibrant and better than expect for the certified grade. Surfaces are untoned with a high probability of being dipped at one point. Please have a close look at the images if in the market for this date. Few better have appeared on the GFRC price list. PCGS population is only 4 at grade. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder.

This Twin Lakes 1886-S is a better With Legend Seated dime San Francisco date with limited availability. Nearly all 1886-S dimes will be struck with the F-101 die pairing and rarely with the F-102 dies. This F-101 is nicely balanced with brilliant frosted luster that is slightly muted by light gray toning. This piece is exactly how an AU58 dime should look with ample mint frost and active cartwheels. Strike is complete too.
