E. Horatio Morgan Collection by Stack’s Bowers Galleries ……
We are thrilled to present selections from the incredible E. Horatio Morgan Collection, which are among the many highlights of our Official Auction at the ANA World’s Fair of Money this August.
Assembled primarily in the late 1980s and early ’90s, the E. Horatio Morgan Collection showcases an impressive array of rarities, with a focus on dimes, early half dollars, pattern coinage, and select world-class rarities. Highlighting this offering is the Dr. Jerry Buss specimen of the 1894-S dime, which has only recently been certified for the first time as Branch Mint Proof-63 (PCGS) CAC. Also featured is a Gem 1876-CC twenty-cent piece that was last offered in our 400 Sale of January 1988, and which has been recently graded MS-65 (PCGS).
Accompanying these two rarities will be an incomparable collection of pattern coinage totaling 110 different pieces from 1792 to 1916. The patterns include many iconic rarities like a Judd-10 1792 disme in copper graded Specimen-8 (PCGS) and a Judd-1205 1872 Amazonian dollar in silver that is certified Proof-62 (PCGS).
We are excited to offer these spectacular rarities for the first time in decades as part of our August 2019 ANA Auction. Further selections from the E. Horatio Morgan Collection will be included in our November 2019 Baltimore Expo Auction and other future sales.
