The June 4, 2000, Dr. Jon Kardatzke Collection Parts II & III, Sale 5

Silver Dollars

Lot 810
1903-O. NGC graded MS-66. A gorgeous Gem with wonderful, speckly golden iridescence atop cartwheel luster and some blue toning on the bottom of the reverse.

Lot 811
1903-O. MS-65. One noticeable mark on the face towards the ear, but this is a lovely, hard-white brilliant coin, well struck, flashy, and having lovely bluish gold rim toning from being in an album for decades.

Lot 812
1903-O. MS-62. Flashy and white, with just a bit of peripheral gold toning. Long ago, this was "the" key date to the Morgan series, until a few bags turned up in the Treasury vaults, still it is scarce and always commands a decent premium over many dates. Well preserved and perfect for the Morgan date collector.

Lot 813
1903-S. PCGS graded MS-64. A rarity in this grade, this particular coin is white, completely untoned and looks to be fresh from a mint bag. The surfaces look even better than the grade assigned, but there are some trivial hairlines. Apparently only a small number turned up from the Treasury hoard in 1953, which is why this date is so difficult to find in high grade, the others must have been melted under the Pittman Act.

Lot 814
1903-S. MS-64. Delightful, pale golden blue iridescent toning gives an extra dash to the flashy appeal of this beautiful coin. The cartwheel "bounce" dances beneath the color, creating unusually strong eye appeal.

Lot 815
1904-O. MS-65 Prooflike. A scuff on the right reverse field, but pleasing overall.

Lot 816
1904-S. PCGS graded MS-64. Nearly a Gem, this coin evidences careful storage in an old-time album for decades. It's hard white and flashy, with just a few marks keeping it away from a higher number. The face is quite clean, as are the fields. The eagle's got an ancient small scrape fairly well hidden in the right wing and extending into the breast feathers.

Lot 817
1921. MS-65. Satiny surfaces with a handsome pastel lilac toning. Super clean!

Lot 818
1921. MS-63. A long diebreak encircles the entire obverse legend on this frosty gray example.

Lot 819
1921. MS-62 Prooflike. Frosty and white, without any toning. Popular with the prooflike fields.

Lot 820
1921. A group of 141 pieces. Grades range from Good to Very Fine on this pile of Morgans. Always popular with collectors, these pieces will certainly find a happy home with a collector.
