D.L. Hansen Collection Highlights

Our first highlight is an 1858 3cS PCGS/CAC MS66+ ex: D.L. Hansen. Golden centers turn into tints of rose, blue, and teal on the obverse, while deep purple and lime cover satiny surfaces on the reverse. A Type 2 3-cent silver with CAC approval and the PCGS+ grade for premium quality. The Hansen Collection possesses an MS67 example for the date.

This week's second highlight is an 1876 3cN PCGS/CAC Proof 66 DCAM ex: D.L. Hansen. Flashy reflective mirrors with light golden tints. Mintage of just 1150 proofs struck. The Hansen Collection holds one of the four finest known examples for the date, a PR66+DCAM.

The third highlight coin is a 1914-S 25c PCGS/CAC MS66+. Extremely scarce and popular date, especially in gem condition. Only a single piece is graded finer by PCGS, even with CAC sticker and a PCGS + grade!

The fourth highlight coin is a 1916 Standing Liberty 25c PCGS MS65 FH. Famous and popular key date SLQ. The 1916 is highly sought by all collectors of key date coinage as a low mintage first-year issue. Full head examples are especially tough. This particular piece exhibits gorgeous rainbow highlights, especially around the rim and must be viewed in-hand to truly appreciate. Gorgeous like no other example of this key date that we've had in quite some time, it is truly a stunning beauty.
