Lot #818 - 1946 NGC MS-66+ Star
Quarter Dollars-Washington
Sandra Wilson Algiers Estate. Sandra Wilson Algiers Collection. Exceptional eye-appeal instantly garners a "star" from NGC -- most appropriate for a common quarter with such uncommon ruby-green, shimmering turquoise and magenta hues. A few hairline abrasions streak across Washington's hair, made virtually invisible by the decades-in-the-making patina.

Lot #871 - 1909-S VDB Lincoln PCGS MS-64RB CAC
Hammer: $2,900
Small Cents-Lincoln, Wheat
Growth Collection. There was a phase about ten years ago when MS-64 RB was considered "best" for the 1909-S VDB in terms of bang for the buck, and perhaps that holds true today. This example certainly seems on the verge of a red designation as either side gleams with 85% of the vintage brick-orange hue. Interestingly, this key cent was possibly struck off of a very slightly clipped planchet, since what appears to be a trio of tiny rim dings at first glance prove, upon closer inspection, to be almost certainly as-struck. An exceptionally detailed Lincoln cent with virtually no disturbances that would meaningfully preclude higher grade consideration.
