Lot Number 55

Ex Green-Newman, as noted on the NGC label.  Luster rolls under a blanket of antique grey/gold toning, a product of the paper envelopes in which Eric Newman stored his coins.  Those envelopes lay before me as I catalogued Newman’s bust halves at Heritage’s request in mid-2013.  The original toning was an inspiration.  I liked this coin enough to become the winning bidder when it sold Nov. 16, 2013 (lot 33606 at $2,468), later passing it to Dr. Charles Link, the present consignor.  Est. $1,800 to $2,500.
