1808 O-102 Prime R-5 NGC XF-45
A truly rare and seldom seen marriage in higher grades, this early die state has only three other examples graded XF-45 and two higher at both NGC and PCGS. According to Hermann's AMBPR, there were only 8 auction appearances since 1985. This example displays some natural toning with some underlying hairlines. Wonderfully struck with no sign of the obverse die crack. $1,600




1812 O-105 PCGS VF-35
This coin is choice for the grade, as I would call it an easy XF. Through the deep original toning, luster flows deep into the fields. PCGS likely net graded this piece for having the weakly struck obverse portrait. Great in-hand eye appeal. $450



1812 O-109a AU
The fascinating die marriage shows some unique die markers on the reverse that start at the olive branch and continue up through the left wing. Lots of luster and natural toning on this coin. Reverse appears to be mid AU, obverse has a little more wear, net AU-50 overall. No obvious issues. $425



1813 O-109a PCGS VF-20 Single Leaf
Here is your chance to own the seldom seen 1813 single leaf! In a problem free PCGS VF-20 slab, this coin displays little to no leaf remaining on this very late die state piece. Eye appealing for a circulated example. $400




1814 O-102 NGC XF-45
Minor guido and planchet flaw at K2 and K8. $545



1814 O-105a R-4 Single Leaf
Hands down, this is the best date to own with the single leaf designation. Unlike the other single leaf marriages where remnants of the leaf can still be seen, the leaf of the 1814 O-105a is completely washed out by the lapping of the working die. A true single leaf that demonstrates the difficulties and actions taken at the early mint to make the coins presentable for circulation. Note the obverse scratches, those make this coin affordable. $225



1814 O-107 XF
A lovely album filler with gorgeous obverse toning that makes this coin sparkle in the light. Some luster remaining behind the stars. Reverse hairlines have toned over. $360



1827 O-145 R-5 NGC XF Cleaned
Although NGC called this example cleaned, I feel like, in this case, that is not the most appropriate term. Without hairlines or other signs of cleaning, this coin does have unusual surfaces. Overall nice coin with great detail. $545



1833 Houck's Panacea Counterstamp
Last but not least. . . here is the infamous Houck's Panacea Counterstamp on an attractive 1833 CBH. An extremely popular and coveted counterstamp, "Houck's Panacea Baltimore" can be traced to a sweet elixir that was advertised to cure a variety of fatal conditions and diseases. A must have for any counterstamp or Capped Bust half dollar collector. $900

You've got some really nice items here that I'd be interested in if I weren't looking to downsize my own collection.
