Chapman 的钱币相册
S-2 R4+ Ex. Chapman (5/1885) Plated in NNP archives. Light chocolate brown obverse. Reverse slightly darker, looks UNC, containing several planchet voids or "drift marks" as Chapman called them, signifying impurities in the planchet that subsequently eroded away. Incredible example.
Sheldon 5. Very pleasing with no visible marks other than normal "background noise". No porosity, good color, a small planchet fissure behind the head, looks like a bit of extra hair. Few trivial rim nicks on the reverse. Probably the nicest S-5 I will ever own.
S-84, CAC. Ex. Foster Lardner. According to Harry Laibstain, this coin has been off the market for “more than a century.” This coin is quite well made for the date, and amply suited to represent the plain edge variety in my type set. Trace red around some of the devices, and quite a bit of faded luster on both sides. Thanks Harry!
MS64+BN, CAC. ex. McAllister-Oakes. Source: Heritage. A great example of this Nichols Hoard variety. Perfect color and nice glossy surfaces. Unquestionably new.
S-287, R-2, Normal Date. EAC 60. CC #3 in Noyes. Breen Die State V, ex. James Mossman, Cardinal Collection. Rare "7-Digit Blue" holder. One of the difficult dates of the series, and the lowest reported mintage. Coin has nice original color and hints of original red throughout the reverse.
N-13, EAC 65+. Ex. Joshua collection, sold as PCGS MS64RD in 2008, and again as NGC MS65RD in 2014. Now PCGS MS65RD. Coin is amazingly well preserved. Luster is surprisingly strong. The color is very much red and hasn’t apparently changed at all from the 2008 auction photos. Thanks Stack’s Bowers, and thanks PCGS for the level cross!
