Lot Title:	Two 1825 and two 1826, all AU
Lot Number:	904
Description:	The Before Collection. A quartet of mid 1820s half-dollars have the appearance of more-or-less "AU" examples. We suggest the following: 1825 (AU-55, generally bone-grey patina with a blush of sky blue on the reverse), 1825 (AU/cleaned, distinctly hairlined with a touch of PVC on one curl but also some rim tone returning, especially on the obverse), 1826 (AU-50, fragile grey color and an interesting planchet defect as-struck at 7:00 of the obverse), and 1826 (AU-50, perhaps a bit glossy from an old cleaning but now showing nicer rim tone along the right edge). Four coin lot.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
