Lot #7 - Argentina - 1825-RA CA 2 Soles - NGC XF-40
Hammer: $725
World Coins-Argentina
KM#18, Rioja mint, medallic alignment. In the cataloger's experience, the 1825 Ra-CA is considerably scarcer than 1826 examples, which can be found on the market with persistent searching. This is an absolutely outstanding example -- a gorgeous "sunface" 2-soles bathed in drop-dead gorgeous, original powdery ash-grey with faint honey undertones. As always, the strike was imperfectly centered upon a very good flan, causing either side to favor north, yet those dentils that made it onto the flan are tack-sharp. While not a typical selection for the Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award, it isn't often that a humble coin off of the Rioja mint is so well preserved despite much circulation, so the award seems most apropos.

Lot #752 - 1820 Large 0 B-2 NGC MS-62
Hammer: $5,500
Quarter Dollars-Capped Bust
Browning-2, large 0. References do not preach die-states for the B-2, but the cataloger has seen some examples where the lowest two die cracks that connect the olive leaf tip to dentils below are filled in; that is not the case here. Nicely appealing platinum-grey patina sweeps over most of the surface but misses highpoint details where tin color adheres. Decent luster persists through the fields but is likely not energetic enough to permit upgrade consideration.
