Lot #400 - 1842-D Large Date ANACS AU-53 details/cleaned
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
Large date, large letters. 1842-D wrangles with 1861-D as a contender for the rarest Dahlonega half-eagle, and a high-grade survivor of any description will be in demand by astute collectors. ANACS claims this AU sharpness example to be cleaned, and indeed, glossy lemon-yellow shows across both sides, accompanied by obvious hairlines in the obverse lower right field. Perhaps as important as anything, the surface actually displays a lot fewer abrasions than typical for a southern mint gold coin.

Lot #292 - $1 A Bechtler 27 Grains, 21 Carat (Plain Edge) PCGS AU-50
Hammer: $3,500
Territorial Gold-Territorial Gold
Morals And Liberty Collection. Kagin-24 (R.3), plain edge, struck circa 1842-52. Christopher Bechtler passed away in 1842, thus it is assumed these were struck after his death. Proliferation of privately minted gold coins helped to fill the void of insufficient federal issues wherever gold rush events took place, and the A. Bechtler gold dollar is by far the most available of all Bechtler issues. A reasonably vintage example with feeble luster but very good darker accents embedded within recesses of either side.
