Light splashes of maroon patina cover both sides atop the steel-gray fields, and the eye appeal is stunning.

This Vitale Collection specimen is an important opportunity for collector constructing a CAC centric set of Liberty Seated dimes.

The 1849-O F-101 obverse features the same die punch characteristics for all 1849 dated dies, namely a defect that joins the tail and loop of the 9.

	Seated	1873-S	MS64	PCGS 07447774	F-101	Gem	$4850	Small Thin S, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Swirling Cartwheels, Gem Original, Gerry Fortin Reference Collection. For several decades, I could not make a decision on whether I liked the F-101 or F-102 PCGS MS64 CAC dimes better, in my reference collection, to the point of releasing one back into the marketplace. The F-101, as offered today, presents lovely frosted surfaces and swirling cartwheels that are accentuated under a bright light. The F-102 specimen is darker with partially mirrored fields and has won the 1873-S spot in the core set. Back to the F-101 then. This die pairing is found in early and late die states with the primary die state diagnostic being die erosion. This lot is a late die state specimen with obvious erosion under the date digits and weak reverse wreath devices. Regardless of the die erosion, the luster is entirely brilliant as one would expect from a gem survivor. This lot was purchased January 2006 and later CAC approved during 2014 and has served at the F-101 plate coin withing The Definitive Resource for Liberty Seated Dime Variety Collectors online reference. Total date CAC approved population presently stands at 25 pieces with 6 at the MS64 level and only 3 finer. The PCGS and CAC guides are understated for this date given the rarity. My cost basis for this lot is $100 less than the offer price while paying $5500 for the remaining F-102 in the core collection. This is an important opportunity for the astute collector. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1876-CC	MS64+	PCGS 38184992	F-132	Gem	$1650	Gem Original, Oregon Beaver Collection.. Generous luster radiates from the surfaces of this GFRC-Gem dime, and the in-hand flash is considerable. Bits are maroon color are scattered at the rims, complemented by brilliant centers. Well-struck, with separation evident in the hair braids. F-132, a distinct variety with the date sharply sloping downward. CAC has certified 100 examples total, with 16 coins finer. The CAC price guide value is $1,420 in MS64 and $1,950 in MS65. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1877-CC Type 2 Reverse	MS66+	PCGS 42140031	F-110	Gem	$4250	Superb Gem, Frosted Luster, Fully Struck, Golden-Gray Patina, Shattered Reverse. As a dealer, I see a host of Seated coins with many being subjected to past poor treatments. On occasion, a superb gem with perfectly original surfaces appears. So was the case at Summer FUN 2021 and the purchase of this 1877-CC Type2 F-110 dime. Steely fields and natural reflective luster are initial highlights during bright light inspection. Toning is a combination of silver-gray with peripheral gold plus aquamarine on the obverse. Strike is hammered when considering the die pairing and shattered reverse. What appeals to me the most is the thick natural patina that is semi-transparent to the underlying luster. Trust me on this piece, it is a exceptional example for the grade, else I would not have added to GFRC inventory. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2021) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1886	AU53	PCGS 30531932	F-120	Choice	$120	Crusty Golden Gray, Choice Original, JBN Collection.. A crusty golden-gray patina is consistent on both sides of this 1886 Seated dime lot. Bright light viewing melts a portion of the toning revealing steely reflective radiance. Strike is typical of the issue. Pleasing and inexpensive for the consistent JBN quality. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #4696.
	Seated	1887-S	MS64	PCGS 5790890	F-114	Gem	$750	New November 19! Doubled UNITED, Gem Original, Heavily Frosted, Gerry Fortin Reference Collection.. Flashy luster and swirling cartwheels are difficult to miss when first inspecting this GFRC-Gem rated 1887-S Seated dime. Not only is the eye appeal exceptional, but the F-114 doubling at UNITED add another dimension as a reason for adding to an advanced Seated collection. Purchased during July 2003 as part of the die variety research effort that resulted in the publishing of The Definitive Resource for Liberty Seated Dime Variety Collectors online reference. A complete strike further enhances the eye appeal. My favorite 1887-S dime other than the piece in the core Liberty Seated dime set. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.0 (1998-2002) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1889	MS65	NGC 958035003	F-110	Gem	$985	Repunched 889, Gem Original, Golden-Aquamarine Patina, Brilliant Frosty Luster, Vibrant Cartwheels, Well Struck, Accurately Graded, Gerry Fortin Reference Collection. A difficult 1889 Philadelphia die variety with repunching inside the lower loops of 88 and above the tail of the 9 digit. First listed by Fortin. This offering has to be one of the finest examples extant as I've seen few in my collecting career. Gem original surfaces are covered with semi-transparent golden-aquamarine patina. Frosty luster is brilliant with bold cartwheels during bright light viewing. The F-110 plate coin at The Definitive Resource for Liberty Seated Dime Variety Collectors. Housed in old NGC holder with standard ring insert. Purchased April 2003 and in the Fortin collection since that time. I really hate to let this one go but all die variety dimes must be eventually sold.
	Seated	1889	MS64	NGC 3102384011	F-120	Gem	$475	Gem Original, Cartwheel Luster, Aquamarine/Rose Patel Toning, Conservative Grading.. A gem original 1889 Philadelphia struck dime that is so deserving of CAC approval. Glowing cartwheel luster couple with pretty pastel colors dominate the eye appeal. Obverse strike is nicely executed while the reverse die is weak and cracked resulting in some shallow relief to the reverse strike. This piece is essentially blemish free and atttractive with GFRC images unable to capture and illustrate the overall beauty. Housed in newer NGC holder.
	Seated	1890	MS64+	CACG 518338859	F-115	Choice	$575	New November 24! Date Farthest Left Die Pairing, Gem Eye Appeal, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Dancing Cartwheels. Brilliant frosted luster is readily apparent the moment that I placed this near-gem 1890 F-115 dime under a bright. The overall eye appeal is at the full gem level given the brilliant luster and dancing cartwheels. A hammered strike increases the charm with boldly defined reverse wreath included those pesky upper left wheat grains. Mottled orange-rose toning is accented with blues at the upper reverse. The luster and toning combination is lighter than illustrated with my images. A single contact mark above the right breast accounts for the (+) grade, without that mark this is a slam dumb "65". The F-115 die pairing features an obverse with the date positioned farthest left among all dies seen. Housed in new CAC Grading holder and graded consistent with CAC approval standards.
	Seated	1890	MS64	NGC 956006002	F-121	Gem	$595	Sharply Sloping Date, Brilliant Frosted Luster, Gem Eye Appeal. I could not resist adding this 1890 F-121 dime to inventory after being bought back from a well known client. Though a "common date", this dime possesses the hallmarks of a full gem. Luster is brilliant and frosty with vibrant cartwheels. Strike is nearly complete while the surfaces were meticulously preserved and are unabraded. Surfaces are toned various shades of copper-gold and add much charm. The F-121 die variety captures a sharply downward sloping date that is an eyeball variety. This is a well balance gem at a fair offer price for type. Housed in NGC Gen 7 (1997-2000) holder,
	Seated	1891	MS64	PCGS 21507312	F-108	Choice	$650	Near-Gem Original, Gerry Fortin Reference Collection.. Lightly mottled russet and lilac patina covers the frosty obverse of this last year of issue Philadelphia piece, while the more untoned reverse exhibits reddish-brown color at the right rim. F-108, the plate coin in the Fortin web-book, with stray detail in the lower loop of the 9, and reverse die cracks. Strike is typical, with reverse softness at K10. The CAC census notes 157 pieces total, with a price guide value of $530. Although not a challenging date, this remains an affordably priced example with substantial luster and original surfaces. Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.1 (2002-2004) holder with CAC approval. Note, there are lines on the holder to the upper right on both sides.
	Barber	1892	MS65	PCGS 38595429		Gem	$700	Gem Original.. Granular, frosted luster imparts spinning cartwheels to this colorful, first year of issue piece. Maroon patina fills protected spaces at the rims, while the interior reveals a mix of grey and sea-green shade. After a 55-year run of Liberty Seated coinage, extending from 1836 to 1891, the Mint introduced a new, common design for the dime, quarter, and half dollar in this year. CAC has approved 245 coins total, 39 pieces in MS65, and 79 examples finer. The CAC price guide value is $468 in MS65. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #4796
	Barber	1896	PR64CAM	PCGS 36911463		Choice	$900	Near-Gem Original, Cameo Proof Strike.. Frosty devices rise above the mirrored fields, revealing a “black and white” Cameo effect as the piece is tilted under a light. A sharp strike imparts strongly impressed design elements, and the bow knot is completely split. A few wispy lines, detectable with a glass, are present in the right, obverse field. Proof Barber dimes form a 24-coin series, dated from 1892-1915, and the low CAC populations dictate that full sets remain remarkably elusive. Still, many of these pieces are available at price points under $1,000. CAC has approved 32 pieces in all grades, five examples in PR64 Cameo, and 23 coins finer. The CAC price guide value is $842. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval. PCGS #84880
	Barber	1901-S	AU53	PCGS 44114354		Choice	$1495	Popular Low Mintage Date, Light Gold, Frosted Luster, CAC Approved. 1901-S Barber dimes enjoy ongoing popularity since being well recognized low mintage date (593,022) and remains in high demand. This 2023 Pittsburgh ANA purchase is unquestionably original with lightly crusted gold hues. Bright light luster has a "creamy" frosted texture that I find particularly attractive. Speckled copper-gold at the obverse periphery adds to the charm. This date in available in the lower circulated grades but becomes scarce in AU or better when fully choice and CAC approved. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder.
	Barber	1902	PR63	PCGS 41007744		Choice	$600	Choice Original, Proof Strike.. Moderate mirrors, consistent with the PR63 guide, reveal light gold color on both sides, decorated by a liberal splash of maroon patina. A few lines are evident at the neck and cheek.

	Barber	1903	PR64	PCGS 82997413		Gem	$900	Gem Original, Proof Strike.. This colorful, CAC-approved example will immediately grab the eye, as the vibrant rim patina contrasts with untoned centers. Intense blue-green shade fills the legend and wreath, surrounding rings of maroon hue on both sides. The in-hand appeal is consistent with the images, and the next owner will not be disappointed. CAC notes 37 examples in all grades, 11 coins in PR64, and 19 pieces in higher grades. The CAC price guide assigns a value of $780, and a higher bid would not surprise us.

The 1905-O dime is a semi-scarce issue with its corresponding premium. The date is well known for the Micro O die variety. Though the date is available at the MS63 and MS64 grades, the certified population drops off quickly in superb gem with only four pieces in MS67. This newly released example is housed in PCGS Gen 3.1 (1993-1998) old green holder with CAC approval and would be an ideal inclusion into an advanced collection. The mint bloom is as struck resulting in a tightly textured frosty radiance under a bright light. The cartwheels are equally vibrant and as expected at the grade level. GFRC images are accurate with respect to the in-hand appearance with the visual shift to pastel violet and peripheral gold with angled lighting. The reverse appearance becomes steely with silver-gray coloration being predominant. This is a superb offering with a coveted green bean.
	Barber	1906-D	MS64	PCGS 39399499		Choice	$1000	Near-Gem Original.. Steely, frosty luster creates a vibrant cartwheel, and the flash is immediately evident.

Reverse Die State 3, The 1818 Capped Bust quarter issue is ideal for type collectors as 361,000 were produced that year, a substantial output for that period. Though relativiely available, all Capped Bust quarters are scarce when strictly original. Thick crust is the perfect description for this Sooner Collection release that was previously sourced from GFRC back in March 2023 at the Spring Baltimore show. Note the "dirt" on Liberty, especially her cheek, and covering the reverse eagle as a testament to the unquestionable originality. Surfaces are unblemished during a carefuly 10x review. Both dies are lightly clashed with a vertical die crack through the 2 digit. This lot comes highly recommended... Housed in PCGS Gen 6.0 (2015-2020) holder with CAC approval.
	Capped Bust	1824/2	VG10	PCGS 28722936		Choice	$1475	Near-Gem Preservation, Gray with Peripheral Gold, Notable Eye Appeal. A single die pair struck only 16,000 quarters dated 1824. There are no Mint records of any deliveries during that year, therefore researchers believe the issue was included in the final deliver of 1823. CAC has approved 58 in all grades with most in lower circulated grades. This new example garners a near-gem quality rating was the surfaces are very well preserved while bright light coloration is superb. Natural coin gray toning provide a contrasting backdrop for peripheral golds. The reverse is quite special with its center rose hues. If you wish to own lower grade early quarters with the all important green bean, this coin is for you. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder with CAC approval.

A thoroughly impressive 1833 B-1 quarter that would be ideal for an advanced early type set. I'm taken aback by the overall eye appeal and attractiveness. Under a bright light, the fields radiate a steely reflectance coupled with vibrant cartwheels that bellows unquestionable originality. Transparent copper-gold patina is consistent on the obverse with a thin green arc at the right periphery. Similar toning is present on the reverse with several mottled gray patches in the fields. The Browning-1 die pairing with a host of die rust clusters on both the obverse and reverse. Browning-1 is easily attributed via three vertical lines in the shield and die clash bars below the eye. This consigned lot is one of the finest Capped Bust quarters handled by GFRC since starting operations and warrants a JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation to drive home that point. Four examples have been approved at the certified grade with a single MS66 finer. If seeking a numismatic present that is truly exceptional, please consider this lot.

	Seated	1852	MS66	PCGS 9462318	Briggs 1-A	Gem	$22500	Superb Gem Original, Condition Census, Repunched Date, Quito Collection. Consignor Price Reduction. The Quito Collection continues his releases of some amazing Liberty Seated quarters. Mintage of the 1852 date is 177,060 with PCGS having certified eight pieces between MS65, MS65+, and MS66, with none finer. The Quito lot is one of four certified at PCGS along with one of four approved at CAC. When checking CoinFacts and reviewing the Eugene Gardner specimen, which is the CoinFacts plate coin, it is readily apparent that the Quito specimen is superior to the Gardner coin in terms of strike and undisturbed luster. DLRC last sold the Gardner lot during August 2017 with CAC approval for $21,500. Previously, the same lot sold in Heritage's 2015 Gardner Sale, without CAC approval, for $18,800. You are invited to visit CoinFacts and the auction records to validate my findings. Bottom line, the Quito Collection specimen is exceptional and superior to the Gardner pedigreed example. This piece is an unmitigated "luster bomb" with old time light gold toning. This lot is worthy of the finest Seated coinage collections under construction.

A thick band of blue-green color surrounds the obverse, highlighted by burnt russet patina above the head. Rose and gold centers are lightly toned, and the eye appeal is exceptional. Fully struck, an important distinction for this date, as many high-grade pieces come with soft stars or other striking issues. Under a glass, fine die polish lines are evident on both sides. CAC has certified 100 pieces, with 10 examples finer. A superb example of the type. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1857	MS66	PCGS 20211414		Gem	$4900	Unquestionably Gem, Exceptional Bright Light Viewing, Sharp Steely Frosted Luster. A gorgeous gem that MUST BE VIEWED in-hand to be appreciated! Sadly, the GFRC images are unable to capture the viewing transition when placed under a bright light. The in-hand greens and rose shift to mostly light blues with a huge peripheral gold ring that is absolutely enthralling. What other superlatives can be used to describe this gem? Eye appeal and luster is of a higher grade with a contact mark by star 5 that most likely account for the certified grade. Luster is sharp and brilliant from steely surfaces. Once again, I must ask for clients to trust this description rather than the images. Photographing high grade gems with lightly contrasted patina brings its illustration challenges. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1858-S	VF35	PCGS 26549025			$3250	Semi-Key Date, Low CAC Population, Perfectly Original, CAC Approved. Well recognized as one of the Liberty Seated quarter semi-key dates, of many, this 1858-S offering also brings a very low CAC population. Only 22 are approved in all grades with six finer above this well preserved VF35 specimen. Though 121,00 were struck, only 2 survived in Mint State 62. I particular like this example due to its strict originality and bold strike. Coin gray patina is augmented by a lighter patch that extends to the reverse. The reverse toning is a bit thicker containing rose hues along with traces of peripheral gold. Head details are complete along with all star point being connected. This piece offers consideration detail and viewing pleasure at the certified grade. Destined for placement in an advanced collection. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.5 (2012-2013) holder with CAC approval.
	Seated	1859-O	EF40	PCGS 31626283		Choice	$785	Better New Orleans Date, Crusty Gray, Steely Fields, CAC Approval. The 1859 date is a semi-key in the New Orleans quarter series, with a mintage of 260,000 pieces. The CAC census provides validation of this fact with only 21 pieces stickered and 2 CACG holdered. Even gray surfaces are the epitome of originality, with gun metal blues being readily apparent under a bright light . Dirt is located within the reverse olive leaves and shield as a testament to the strict originality. Strike is typical with some weakness in the stars. The overall circulated eye appeal in pleasing which some generate significant collector interest. Housed in PCGS Gen 5.0 (2015) holder with CAC approval.

The reverse rim is entirely complete while the obverse so close to being 100% fully defined. Three letters in LIBERTY remain visible. A great numismatic item on its own or for constructing a circulated set of S-Mint quarters. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.5 (2011-2013) holder with CAC approval.

Along with the 1864-S and 1872-S dates, the 1860-S is in the top tier when pursuing Liberty Seated quarters from the San Francisco Mint. The 1860-S date will be one of first coins examined when viewing a set of quarters, and there will be no apologizing for this example. Even silver color is surrounded by chestnut tones at the rims while ample "dirt" hides in the protected areas - precisely the wear pattern one expects on an original coin. Briggs 1-A, the only variety for this issue. CAC has certified just 25 examples, including this, in all grades. Housed in a PCGS Gen 4.6 (2013-2014) holder with CAC approval.

The 1861-S quarter is a recognized key date in the Liberty Seated quarter series. Mintage totaled only 96,000 with all reaching the western frontier and mining town circulation. Most present day survivors will be seen in the G04 through F12 grades as is the case with this CAC approved offering that was purchased as part of a circulated San Francisco mint date set. This piece is evenly worn with elevated rims on both sides. The grading is accurate as all seven letters in LIBERTY remain visible. Darker olive-gray patina is noted primarily at the peripheries.

	Seated	1867	VF35	PCGS 45000680	Briggs 1-A	Choice	$1800	Low Mintage Philadelphia Strike, Natural Coin Gray, Meager CAC Population, Manifest Destiny Collection. The 1867 quarter sits amid a run of low-mintage Philadelphia dates, struck during a period when hard money was scarce and paper substitutes filled the void. Only 20,000 pieces were struck in this year, and, like the 1866 quarter, business strikes are more desirable than proofs. Fortunately, these are easily distinguished, with circulation pieces exhibiting weakness in the obverse shield ribbon. That is clearly the case here, with several letters of LIBERTY indistinct. This piece reveals natural coin gray patina on both sides. Regardless of time during post-Civil War commerce, this piece is essentially unabraded. Strike is typical. The CAC census reports 24 pieces in all grades stickered and 4 within CAC holders. Previously sold by GFRC and back on the price list as part of a complete collection sale. Housed in a PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval.

	Seated	1846 6/Horizontal 6	AU55	PCGS 20198692	WB-7	Gem	$5750	6/Horizontal 6, Steely Fields, Light Gold, Gem Eye Appeal, Newtown Collection. The 1846 6 over horizontal 6 is a great "eyeball" die variety that is one of the most obvious in the Liberty Seated half dollar series. After punching the 184 digits with a three digit logotype, the mint engraver mistakenly punched the final 6 digit at a 90 degree angle. Realizing his mistake, he then punched the 6 digit in the correct position without an attempt to efface the former. Talk about having a bad day!

It is with utmost pleasure that this GFRC-Gem rated EF40 example is offered. Unabraded steely fields and residual luster are notable under angled lighting including a transition to rose and light blue hues.

An exceptionally beautiful 1877 Seated half that would boldly complement the finest early silver type sets under construction. This piece would also fit in nicely for those seeking premium Mint State halves. Unfortunately, the GFRC images are unable to accurately illustrate the granular frosted luster that actively interacts with the rose-gold and peripheral blue shades. Angled lighting further exposes the vibrant cartwheel action. As also expected from a gem graded 66+, the strike is all there. The darker thin lines in the right obverse field are toning lines. CAC has approved and graded 78 in all grades, not a surprise given the high mintage. At the offer grade, 14 have been approved with 3 finer. The PCGS MS66+ grade is well represented by this example and then some. Yet another superb find by the Osprey Collection. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder.

Emerald and sea-green patina fills both sides of this Philadelphia piece, along with crusty bits scattered on both sides. The survival of higher-grade business strikes of this era was somewhat a matter of chance, as most collectors of the period preferred to assemble runs of proof examples, which were sold by the Mint for a minimal markup. Conversely, the Mint today views the annual proof set as an opportunity to extract increasing sums from the collecting public. GFRC humbly suggests that classic coins such as the present example might represent a better collecting value. CAC notes 47 pieces in all grades, with a price guide value of $515 in AU55.

The 1923-S Walking Liberty half dollar is much more difficult to locate in high grade than its mintage of 2.1 million pieces would suggest. Strong commercial demand ensured most of the struck coins circulated wildy. Weak strikes and excessive surface marks are the norm for this issue.

During the early 1900s, the 1886-S was one of the Morgan rarities in Mint State. Over time, a moderate supply of coins were released from San Francisco mint storage, thus increasing availability. There are suggestions that hundreds of thousands were melted under the 1918 Pittman Act provisions, thought never verified. This date remains scarce today with partially mirrored examples being known at the choice Mint State grades. This Scenic Lakeview offering exhibits a partially mirrored obverse, with the reverse less so. The primary focal area is minimally abraded given the conservative grade. As a result, this piece appeared to be a strong CAC candidate and was approved during a recent GFRC submission. The CAC price guide currently stands at $600 at the MS61 grade level. Housed in new large font NGC holder.

This new acquisition is fully struck with deeply impressed motifs, partially mirrored fields, and an overall yellow-gold coloration. David Akers opines that, "The 1872 is one of my favorite dates in the gold dollar series. Except for the 1875, it is the scarcest date after 1870 and is really very rare in choice condition." The rarity is easily corroborated by checking the CAC census with only 17 approved in all grades. The CAC price guide stands at $3,300 at the offered graded and jumps to $4,500 at the MS64 level.

A total of 65 examples have been approved with the bulk of the distribution between EF45 and AU58 at substantially higher premiums. If wishing to own a piece of early Carson City issued gold, this moderately worn example presents a compelling entry point. Surfaces are entirely original with the expected copper-gold patina. A few circulation marks attest to the fact that this lot did circulate in the early frontier period. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval. The CDN CAC guides stands at $2620 for reference.
	Gold G$5	1881 Liberty	MS63	PCGS 39615137		Choice	$1000	Glowing Frosty Luster, Orange-Gold Coloring, Type Set Candidate. CAC gold continues to be in high demand. Luckily, Hound Dog Dan is able to locate choice gold with excellent eye. This 1881 $5 half eagle offers glowing frosty luster and swirling cartwheels from orange-gold toned surfaces.

	Gold G$5	1888-S Liberty	MS63	CACG 46044320		Choice	$6150	Condition Census Offering, Frosted Luster, Honey-Gold Presentation, Fully Choice, CACG Holder. Since sporting a mintage of 293,900, the 1888-S $5 gold date is often treated as a "common date" in lower grades though one could argue that the date is scarce in all grades as a starting point. The situation shifts dramatically in Mint State where this date becomes very rare at the choice grade level. GFRC is pleased to be offering this CAC Grading example at the MS63 certified level. Only three examples have been stickered along with this CACG holdered specimen. The CDN CAC report indicates only one finer at MS64 without pricing guidance. This under appreciated example offers choice surfaces and glowing frosted luster. Under a bright light, the honey green-gold presentation is immediately evident. Worthy of serious consideration by U.S. gold collectors who seek an under appreciated rarity. Housed in new CAC Grading (2023) holder and graded consistent with CAC approval standards.
	Gold G$5	1889 Liberty	AU55	PCGS OGH 6315411		Choice	HOLD $2250	New November 23! Low Mintage Date, Gem Original, Rich Orange Gold, Lightly Mirrored, CAC Gold, White Pine Collection. GFRC's recent CAC submission yielded a Gold CAC bean for this eye appealing 1889 half eagle that is housed in a PCGS Gen 3.0 (1990-1993) old green holder. The PCGS old green label holders continue to be prime candidates for the "exceeded" approval. Orange honey-gold patina is noted on both sides while mirrored surfaces are noted on the obverse and a shift to frosted luster on the reverse. Any wear on the cheek and hair curls is not evident with a 10x, therefore the Gold bean is credible. U.S. gold specialists should take note 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. An angled lighting review reveals bright reflectance and a melting of the darker honey-gold in-hand coloration. The CAC population is 26 in all grades.
	Gold G$5	1890 Liberty	AU58	NGC 5750950004		Choice	$3550	Rare Philadelphia Date, Tiny Mintage, Steely Reflectance, Honey Green-Gold, CAC Approval. GFRC Price Reduction. Given its tiny mintage of 4,240, this 1890 $5 issue is challenging to locate in most grades. GFRC is pleased to be offering an AU58 certified example with CAC approval. Overall coloration is a honey green-gold with lighter shades during angled lighting review. An originally preserved example that has steely fields and moderate reflectance. Fields exhibit some chatter of no consequence. CAC has approved only 17 in all grades with 5 finer. Housed in new large font NGC holder.
	Gold G$5	1891 Liberty	MS64	PCGS 41436481		Choice	$3750	Rare Uncirculated, Superb Rose-Gold Coloring, Completed Strike, Near-Gem. 1891 Philadelphia $5 gold strikes were limited to 61,360 pieces in an era of massive silver coinage output. Most survivors are found with abrasions and/or light wear. At the MS64 level, this grade becomes rare and even more so with CAC approval. PCGS has not certified a single gem specimen, therefore MS64 and MS64+ graded examples are as good as it gets. GFRC is pleased to be offering one of the MS64 certified survivors that also has CAC approval. An infrequently seen rose-gold coloring is consistent on both sides. Bright light inspection is a joy given the brilliant frosted luster that explodes off the surfaces. Strike is 100% complete and rounds out the checklist for a designating this offering a near-gem. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2021) holder. Previously sold by GFRC during June 2021 for $4350.

	Gold G$5	1895-S Liberty	MS62	PCGS 41453606		Choice	$3750	Rare in Mint State, Few Finer CAC Approved, Sparkling Frosted Luster, Osprey Collection. Consignor Price Reduction. Another San Francisco $5 gold date that sports a reasonable mintage but is rare in choice Mint State. Even in the late 19th century, west coast coinage had few collectors to selectively "put pieces away" for the long term. As a result, the 1895-S date brings a substantial premium when CAC approved. All but 9 of the 45 approved are at the circulated level. The Osprey Collection is offering a choice example that exhibits pretty sparkling frosty luster and swirling cartwheels. Coloration is a light honey-gold. Scattered field chatter accounts for the certified grade. Only four are finer. Fairly priced for the rarity. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2022) holder with CAC approval. The label captures the Fairmont Collection pedigree.
	Gold G$5	1905 Liberty	MS64+	NGC 6331828001		Gem	$1500	Superb Type Offering, Granular Frosted Luster, Honey-Gold Coloration, Osprey Collection. The 1905 $5 gold issue is ideal for type since there is no date premium associated with a mintage of 302,200. This date is considered slightly scarcer than "common" for those who keep track of gold date rarity. The Osprey Collection has hit a homerun with this example purchased at the Pittsburgh ANA. Tightly textured frosted luster is softly brilliant and thoroughly pleasing under a light source. Coloration is a uniform honey-gold with "dirt" free surfaces. Strike is bold and complete. The MS64+ grade is technically accurate as there is scattered field chatter, however the overall eye appeal won the day at CAC. Housed in new large font NGC holder with CAC approval.

CAC approval validates the originality.

The application of angled lighting, with my desk lamp, allows the surfaces to radiate light in all directions. Coloration is a rich honey-gold with background greens.

The strike details on the headband feathers are quite impressive as are the reverse eagle feathers being deeply impressed.

CAC approval is fully warranted. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2023) holder.

At the MS64 grade, the 1910 and 1914 dates have 69 and 62 examples approved respective with other dates being more available.
