Eric P. Newman Collection, Part IX

1835 25C B-7, R.2, MS62 NGC. B-7 has no period after 25 C, differentiating this variety from the other seven 1835 quarter dollar die pairings. None of these varieties is particularly rare, and thus the 1835 date is popular among type collectors. This Mint State piece displays a sharp strike and semiprooflike fields with scattered abrasions. Original gold, blue, and olive-gray toning appears on each side. Ex: "Colonel" E.H.R. Green; Green Estate; Partnership of Eric P. Newman / B.G. Johnson d.b.a. St. Louis Stamp and Coin Co.; Eric P. Newman; Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

1907 10C AU58 NGC. Close examination with a loupe is required to see any high-point friction on this near-Mint Barber type coin. Both sides display satiny luster and a sharp strike with mottled olive-gold and russet toning. A few light abrasions do not detract. Barber dimes in this grade are increasingly popular among type and date collectors. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.

1874 10C Arrows, F-105, R.3, AU50 NGC. Faint recutting is visible above the base of the 1, and misplaced digits appear in the dentils beneath the other date numerals. This AU coin is deficiently struck on the head, rock, foot, and much of the wreath, with little actual wear present. Dusky olive-gold toning blankets each side. The originality of the surfaces will appeal to the date collectors of Seated Liberty dimes. Ex: Eric P. Newman Numismatic Education Society.
