Lot 1000
1853 Arms of California Round Half Dollar. BG-435. Sharpness of EF-45. One of the most popular design types in the California Gold series, important enough to make the back cover of the first Breen-Gillio reference work. This example was once mounted and worn as a piece of jewelry but the mount has since been expertly removed. A great opportunity to buy one of the most affordable example of this rare BG number.
Estimated Value $1,900-2,200.

Lot 1001
1853 Liberty Head Round Half Dollar. BG-422. R-7. Struck on a curious, wavy planchet, with flattening on some of the lettering. Lightly cleaned.
Estimated Value $850-1,000.

Lot 1002
1853 Liberty Head Octagonal Dollar. BG-505. Sharpness of Almost Uncirculated. The consignor noted that solder was removed from the edges of this piece, but we're hard pressed to find it. We agree that the coin has been cleaned, but it has a nice appearance and should be easily worth our estimate.
Estimated Value $600-700.

Lot 1003
1856 Liberty Head Round Half Dollar. BG-434. AU-55. Lustrous and prooflike.
Estimated Value $150-200.
