Collection of fifty-nine different large cents

Lot Title:	Collection of fifty-nine different large cents
Lot Number:	141
Description:	No dates are repeated from within this sizable grouping of rather nicer large cents. Commencing with 1794, the only dates lacking include the challenging 1796, impossible 1799, and the very difficult 1804, and curiously enough, 1807. Everything else gets date representation through 1857. The collector obviously sought out pieces with better planchets, since even the classic head coins are much nicer at the AG -G level than what is typically seen, although the 1813 (VF/corroded) has a rougher appearance. Most of the cents are in the Good to VG level, with better sharpness seen for 1817, 1828, and 1838 onward, and some later examples such as 1851, 1854, 1855, and 1857 should easily meet or exceed VF expectations. Highly enticing, yet humble quality in this fifty-nine 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.
