Choice $815 Lafayette Dollar Commemorative, Steely Gray Luster, Choice Original, JUST BUY IT NOW. A well above average Lafayette commemorative dollar that warrants a GFRC JUST BUY IT NOW recommendation. This is a newly arrived consignment that has captured my attention given the strictly original surfaces and overall eye appeal. Steely luster is consistent on both sides with the obverse toning leaning towards olive-gold hues while the reverse has a light rose patina that is amplified by the images. Pristine surfaces and a fully executed strike are also noted. The new owner may eish to give this piece a CAC stickering attempt as the possibility for a green bean is there. Housed in PCGS Gen 6.1 (2020-2024) holder with CAC approval.

Choice $550 Isabella Commemorative, Steely Luster, Gunmetal Blue-Gray. Vibrant steely luster and rotating cartwheels are immediately noted for this 1893 Isabella 25c early commemorative with a limited mintage of 24,214. This issue was the result of a suggestion by Chicago socialite Mrs. Potter Palmer during early 1893 after the release of the Columbian Exposition half dollar. A bold strike is enhanced by gunmetal blue-green obverse toning while the reverse sports light copper-gold. Toning lines are note on the center obverse. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder.

Choice $200 Lexington-Concord Sesquicentennial, Near-Gem Original, Well Preserved. The 1925 "Lexington" issue commemorates two famous battles fought during 1775 with a Minuteman on the obverse and the Old Beltry at Lexington on the reverse. This near-gem example is very well preserved and quite pleasing. Rich granular frosted luster is consistent on both sides. Golden hues are more predominant on the obverse. Surfaces are pristine. A superior example. Housed in PCGS Gen 4.4 (2005-2011) holder with CAC approval.

Choice $45 Washington-Carver Commemorative, Golden Rose-Blue Colors, Brilliant Frosted Luster. A beautifully toned Washington-Carver half that is worthy of a small premium. Brilliant frosted luster amplifies the natural toning. Some wispy obverse hairlines, under 10x loupe, account for the certified grade. Housed in newer NGC holder with edge view insert.
