Lot #763 - 1861-O WB-103, Confederate Issue, PCGS MS-61
Half Dollars-Liberty Seated
WB-103. PCGS did not recognize the "bisected date" which might have quickly led to realization that this half-dollar was struck under authority of the Confederacy after the New Orleans mint was seized at the beginning of the Civil War. Although graded only MS-61, both sides exhibit charmingly vibrant luster. Ref: A Register of Liberty Seated Half Dollar Varieties, Bill Bugert.

Lot #411 - 1878 PCGS AU-53
Hammer: $1,300
Gold $3-Indian Princess Head
1878 is the most common date in the entire three-dollar gold series according to PCGS. Regardless, this example appears particularly pleasant for the grade. Faintly smoky fields are actually, despite wear, quite even and crisp in appearance.
