Lot #348 - 1904 PCGS PR-67CAM
Gold $2.50-Liberty Head Quarter Eagle
3 graded PR-67 CAM, 1 higher at PCGS. Between them, PCGS and NGC have managed fewer than fifteen aggregate UCAM/DCAM events in any grade, speaking to the difficulty of locating a specimen with superior contrast. This is partly due to a lack of special effort on the part of the mint to create high-contrast proof dies after the turn of the century. Nevertheless, this coin boasts exceptionally reflective fields on the obverse -- not quite UCAM but close -- and very good mirrors on the reverse. Contrast is thereby enhanced, but truthfully, the frosted-matte texture on the devices is also not strong enough to yield the kind of contrast that a UCAM designation demands.

Technically, the coin appears virtually flawless under 8x magnification, with fields that are as bright and pristine as possible and showing an absolute absence of hairlines. A single, tiny, sintered dot floats in space beneath the hair bun, just right of the smallest imaginable comma-shaped abrasion, and together, these could provide a pedigree marker for future collectors. A lintmark also occupies one point of the eleventh star.

Lot #328 - 1849-O PCGS MS-61
Hammer: $1,250
Gold Dollars-Liberty Head
4 in the date is somewhat weak, while otherwise, both sides display a decent strike. Perhaps a little lackluster throughout, some greyish smears within the obverse fields help limit the grade.
