 Lot 358 - united states draped bust cents - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841799 S-189 R2 PCGS graded Poor-1 (EAC Basal State-1). Glossy bluish steel and medium chocolate brown. The surfaces are smooth and void of marks, just heavily worn. Choice for the grade. The upper half of the date is clear but the lower half is worn away, and maybe a third of LIBERTY can be made out. Most of the reverse is worn smooth. Our grade is Fair-2 for the obverse but barely BS-1 for the reverse, so our grade is consistent with the slab grade. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

 Lot 369 - united states draped bust cents - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841800 S-205 R4 VF20+. Sharpness VF30 but there are some light contact marks scattered over the planchet. The notable ones are a dull vertical nick in the hair under the B in LIBERTY, a minor rim bruise left of the lowest curl, several small pinpricks on the bust, and a few more in the space right of the second S in STATES. Mostly glossy dark steel brown and light olive. MDS, Breen state II.

 Lot 380 - united states draped bust cents - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #841801 NC-3 R6+ Error Fraction 1/000 G5. Clipped Planchet. Sharpness F12 or a bit better but both sides are covered with moderate granularity. No verdigris. The only mark is a dull scratch across the center of the neck into the hair, and this mark is mostly hidden in the roughness and toning. Slightly glossy chocolate brown. The date and legends are complete and clear. A small, curved planchet clip over BE in LIBERTY just touches the top of that E and reaches the base of the dentils under the error (1/000) fraction. Not perfect but still comparable to the Breen plate coin for this very rare variety. Only 15 examples are known and the finest grades VG8. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.
