Coin collection

TITLE: Vintage US & Canadian Coin Collection Estate Lot - Heavy 90% & 40% Silver Content, Key Dates, & Proof Sets DESCRIPTION: Up for sale is a beautifully preserved, multi-generational estate coin collection. This lot is an incredible foundational starter collection or an instant inventory boost for a seasoned numismatist. It features an excellent balance of raw numismatic key dates, neatly organized Whitman historical folders, and pristine United States Mint Government Proof Sets. A substantial percentage of this collection's value is directly backed by underlying precious metal bullion content (90% silver and 40% silver coins). WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS LOT: 1. PRECIOUS METAL COINAGE & SILVER PROOFS: * 1971, 1972, 1973, and 1974 Eisenhower Silver Proof Dollars: Full 4-year run of the famous "Brown Ikes" struck at the San Francisco Mint on 40% fine silver planchets. Each remains permanently sonically sealed in its original government presentation lens, nested in plush red velvet inside wood-grain style boxes. (The 1973-S is a low-mintage key date). * 1976 United States Bicentennial 3-Coin Silver Proof Set: Commemorative 40% silver dollar, half dollar, and quarter set housed in the original red tri-fold presentation folder. * Whitman Dimes Album (Mercury & Roosevelt): A powerful silver accumulation containing 105 vintage 90% silver dimes (pre-1965) plus 14 modern clad transition coins. * 1960 Canadian "Bluenose" Dime: 80% fine silver collector favorite. 2. VINTAGE WHITMAN FOLDERS & COLLECTIBLE TYPE COINS: * Whitman Jefferson Nickels Folder (1938–1961+): Nearly complete 85-coin set featuring the ultimate key date of the series: the low-mintage 1950-D Jefferson Nickel. Also completely fills all 11 silver wartime slots (35% silver) and includes the semi-key 1939-D. * Whitman Buffalo Nickels Folder: 11 classic pieces, all hand-selected for clear, fully readable dates (uncommon for heavily circulated Buffaloes). Includes tougher early branch mint markers like the 1915-D. * Whitman Lincoln Head Cents Vol. 1 (1909–1940): 21 early wheat pennies including a bold 1909 first-year-of-issue specimen, 1915-D, and 1925-D. * Whitman Lincoln Head Cents Vol. 2 (1941+): 89 coins neatly tracking the transition from mid-century copper wheat cents to modern memorial varieties. Includes a dedicated 1960-D Small Date variety and a full 1943 steel penny war set. * Whitman Canadian Small Cents Folder (1920–1988): 53 coins spanning King George V, King George VI, and Queen Elizabeth II. Low-mintage early dates included. * Turn-of-the-Century Type Coins: Includes a raw 1898 Liberty Head "V" Nickel and a raw 1910 Liberty Head "V" Nickel. 3.
