Lot #760 - 1837 Reeded Edge NGC MS-62
Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Reeded Edge
Bachelor Simon Collection. GR-17, a common die-marriage readily attributed by the extensive reverse die cracks. Softly lustrous and satiny overall despite at least two bold die clashes several degrees apart from each other and the original die rotation. A curious narrow gash on the face clearly determines the grade, but overall, this is a highly pleasing type coin with a hands-length smooth appearance and an unusually bold strike.

Lot #550 - 1909-S NGC MS-66
Hammer: $17,500
Gold $20-Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle
13 graded MS-66, zero higher at NGC. Not so many years ago, 1909-S was considered rare in high grade until a hoard of better examples entered the market and helped increase the supply of gem examples. That said, this spectacular coin, showing exceptional copper-gold color, exceeds the gem grade by a full point at NGC, and places it smack dab into the discussion of finest-known pieces at that grading company (PCGS claims two higher graded examples).

Close inspection reveals superbly frosted surfaces and a lack of major marks; the cataloger suggests the one lone depression down the left edge of Liberty's gown may be the most noticeable. On the reverse, what appears at first to be a micro pinscratch could actually be an interesting strikethrough, which could then be of significant interest as a provenance marker for a coin this scarce. An exquisite, much better date within the series that would be almost impossible to beat in terms of quality.
