Lot #298 - 1896 Aluminum 5C J-1772 CACG PR-64
Patterns-Patterns
Judd-1772, R.6+ and extremely rare in any state of preservation. It appears that perhaps as few as 40 unique grading events have occurred between the major services over the past forty years. Pollock lists four different aluminum alloys, but no metallurgical analysis has been indicated on the CAC slab. Extensive hairlines appear to represent die polish but the planchet allow shows some anomalies lower left of the shield and a small planchet flake far left on the reverse.

Lot #862 - 1901 PCGS PR-66BN
Hammer: $775
Small Cents-Indian Head
Bucky The Badger Consignment. 11 graded PR-66 BN, 3 higher at PCGS. An unexpectedly low population adds ample appeal to this already remarkable very-gem proof type cent. The obverse offers a startlingly lustrous appearance, replete with magenta, chartreuse-sienna and ruby-cobalt colors while the reverse features outrageous sea-green surrounding turquoise-carbuncle hues that must be seen to be believed.

Lot #308 - Native American Unsigned Squash Blossom
Hammer: $320
Jewelry-Silver
Circa 1960/1970, this overly large sterling silver (tested, not marked) and chrysocolla squash blossom necklace features 10 blossoms set between seamed beads and a 7-stone Naja at the bottom. With an overly bold design, the stone used in the making emulates a darker grade of turquoise than usually found in this type of necklace. Condition is very nice for its age with a vintage patina to the metal. Unsigned piece so tribal affiliation is unknown. Length 26”, 8.40 troy ounces.
