Lot 32290 > Ferdinand I 50 Stotinki 1891-KB MS62 NGC, Kremnitz mint, KM12. Watery fields, the obverse decorated with a sheen of cobalt and deep violet and the reverse taking on a more pinkish tone. Light cabinet friction on the high points prevents a higher certified grade. Quite possibly a Proof example, with distinctly Prooflike surfaces and an undeniable contrast between the fields and devices.

Lot 2299
Starting price: 82USD
Lot 32300 > Victoria Specimen 10 Cents 1858 SP64 PCGS, London mint, KM3. Plain edge variety. Bearing an incredible level of presentation, this Specimen beams with amber and cerulean iridescence that gathers around the design elements and resides in the semi-reflective fields respectively. The strike immediately satisfies the eye, with the sharp portrait of Victoria front and center, and the crisp reverse leaf motif nicely cradles the denomination. Highly coveted so fine, and a definite beauty in hand. Ex. Schroeder Collection
Lot 2300
Starting price: 320USD
Lot 32301 > Edward VII gold Sovereign 1909-C AU58 NGC, Ottawa mint, KM14. Mintage: 16,273. The second lowest-mintage date of Edward's Canadian sovereigns, just behind the prohibitively rare 1908, presenting considerable allure and only light marks.

Lot 32309 > Elizabeth II silver Mint Error - Partial Collar "Maple Leaf" 5 Dollars 2013 MS61 NGC, KM1525. An intriguing mint error struck partially out of its collar. Roughly 45% of the obverse is bordered by an abnormally tall finned rim, which at its peak extends a little over 3mm from the surface of the coin, roughly doubling the coin's thickness. It is a wonder that this piece was able to exit the mint, as the production standards for Maple Leaf coinage are generally quite strict. Although the grade is somewhat immaterial considering the unique status of this piece, we note that it exhibits very little in the way of distracting marks and would not be out of place with a grade even two or so points higher.

Starting price: 130USD
Lot 32315 > Newfoundland. George V 25 Cents 1919-C MS64 PCGS, Ottawa mint, KM17. A two-year issue of which this date is the more difficult to acquire, showing exceptional color that evenly canvasses the obverse and delicately brightens the reverse peripheries. Closer inspection confirms a bold striking, as all raised detail remains pleasingly sharp, while the appearance of few marks further add to the allure of this jewel-like selection. Ex. Schroeder Collection
Lot 2315
Starting price: 115USD
Lot 32316 > Victoria 50 Cents 1872-H MS63+ PCGS, Heaton mint, KM6. While not situated at the top of the PCGS census, the grade and overall appearance of the present example cannot be taken as 'usual' for the type--most pieces being cleaned, damaged, or otherwise altered since leaving the mint. Awarded a "plus" designation for its superior execution, this specimen boasts silky fields brimming with luster and a pinpoint precision to every aspect of the devices.
Lot 2316
Starting price: 2100USD
Lot 32317 > Newfoundland. Victoria gold 2 Dollars 1882-H MS63 PCGS, Heaton mint, KM5. A much more difficult series to obtain in choice condition, the usual bagmarks that plague the type appearing almost entirely absent from the current offering and replaced instead by bold die polish.
