Large Cents
1805 S-267 R1 MS63 Brown PCGS, CAC Approved. Choice lustrous steel brown and light chocolate. Satiny mint frost covers all but the very highest points of the devices and the eye appeal of this cent is great. No spots or stains. The only marks are a thin diagonal nick high on the neck and another on the forehead. LDS, Breen state IV, with a fine die crack that meanders through ST into the wreath and through ES in STATES to the rim. Graded AU55 and tied for CC#6 in the Noyes census, his photo #61056. This cataloger's EAC grade is AU55+, close to AU58. A choice cent, very close to mint state, and it has solid mint state eye appeal. The attribution and Nancy and Bryan Collection provenance are noted on the PCGS Gold Shield label. PCGS population 3; 2 finer: 1 in 64, 1 in 65. 36427.63/04939639.

Omaha, Nebraska octogenarian Thomas D. Reynolds is an early copper specialist whose presence is noted at coins conventions across the country. He began collecting coins in the early 1950s. After graduating from Drake University, he worked in the insurance industry. He soon discovered early copper coins and joined Early American Coppers in 1970. Continuing in the insurance business, Reynolds set up at his first coin show in 1980. He left the insurance business in 1986, in favor of full-time coin dealing, and his presence continues on the show circuit.
