Twelve different early half-dollars in a Dansco 6161 Volume 1 album

Lot Title:	Twelve different early half-dollars in a Dansco 6161 Volume 1 album
Lot Number:	829
Description:	Bert Davies Collection. Collector appeal: "A+" for quality. Time has not yet marched so far forward that all collectors have forgotten about the joy of collecting classic, old coins OUTSIDE of third-party holders. The consignor must have taken great pleasure in freeing these marvelous old ladies from their plastic tombs, although he did retain the slab inserts, having taped them into the album's front cover. Numeric grades given represent the presumed PCGS assessments, [square brackets] represent your favorite cataloger's opinion, and most attributions (unverified) are written next to the album slot. These list as follows: 1805 (VF-25), 1808 (VF-35), 1809 (VF-20), 1811 sm 8 (VF-30), 1812/1 (F-15), 1814 (VF-20), 1818/7 sm 8 (VF-35), 1818 (VF-20), 1819/8 sm 9 (VG), 1819 (VF-25), 1821 (XF-40), and 1822 [VF/cleaned]. Except as noted, these appear to be gorgeous examples, reasonably original if not fully so, and free from major problems. Twelve coins in total.

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.
