Spring 2026 Showcase Auction U.S. Coins

Losbeschreibung: Breen Die State III. An attractive and significant example of the scarcest die pairing of the 1810-dated large cent issue. Attractively toned in dominant medium brown, both sides exhibit intermingled golden-orange that represents faded mint color. Surface texture is smooth and satiny, the coin uncommonly free of distracting blemishes in a survivor of this challenging large cent design type. This piece, with an impressive provenance to our (Bowers and Ruddy's) November 1979 Garrett I Sale, is tied for CC#11 for the Sheldon-285 dies in the 2015 Noyes census, in which it is given an EAC grade of "XF45(AU50) Ave Plus."
