From Downey Mail Bid 55 and described by the cataloguer - A Red Book staple with too much luster for the assigned grade. The bodacious obverse glows with sunset colors; the reverse is similar, a touch more modest because of (the usual) weakness at the eagle’s head and left wing. XF and AU examples of the “R.1” E over A are devilishly hard to find. I see but one or two a year. An old friend from MB 41, August 2015, lot 30.

From Downey mail bid auction 57 in January 2024 described as: PCGS “rattler,” lot 8388 from Heritage Sept. 2012 sale where it brought $2,354. Brilliant centers, dazzling luster and a welcome halo of russet through the stars and legend. Q. David Bowers sold the coin to the Heritage consignor during a 1974 Long Beach Show as “UNC with rub.” No argument. There are traces of friction on the portrait; the fields are unscathed save for a contact mark twixt left wing and neck. Well struck throughout. Maybe a hint of weakness, lower drapery. A virtual lock to grade “58” today.

Ex Osborne, Downey MB52, Photos by Lance Keigwin. Light rose centers, flanked by turquoise and gold iridescence through the stars and legend. A faint drift mark (planchet imperfection) crosses the portrait. In hand, it blends with the lovely toning. From MB 16, lot 115, Jan. 21, 1996. Possibly the favorite coin in my collection.

O-102 CAC Queller. Deep blue and purple hues from a long stay in an envelope.
From Downey mail bid auction 57 in January 2024, described as: A spectacular – and original - 1824. The surfaces showcase a panoply of colors. Luster runs deep into the fabric of the coin. The surfaces are virtually free of marks. I wonder whether PCGS worried about the late die state which accounts for some softness in the strike. The coin puts many AU 58s to shame. From the Kings Park Collection.
Nice colorful pastel toning not seen in photos PQ!

Another coin that was tucked away in an album for several decades. Antique toning blends with the luster befitting a 55. Immaculate surfaces save a stray staple scratch on the reverse near the left wing.
Beautiful Album toning fades into auburn and gold. Earned a CAC sticker for eye appeal and originality

From Downey Mail Bid 55 described as - The scarce early die state, with die lines alongside the date and no die break at stars 2-7. Iridescent gold toning through the stars and legend provides an eye-catching frame for the antique grey centers. The surfaces are virtually free of contact marks. From David Kahn, privately, in Nov. 2009 as rare prime R.5.

Bright golden gives way to blue and red hues on the obverse. The inverse is true on the reverse. One of a kind! Ex Keigwin.

More than adequate luster is a nice companion to the blue and red luster. Nice even wear on the devices is fitting for the grade. Ex Keigwin.
