Lot #758 - 1834 Small Date, Small Letters O-119 AU/wiped
Hammer: $525
Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Lettered Edge
Cochrane Gambit Consignment. Overton-119 (R.4), a somewhat better die-marriage for 1834, almost all examples seen, including this handsomely toned coin, will show softness within the broad juncture of the eagle's left (observed) wing and body. That said, it appears this dynamic coin received slightly above average details throughout. Circumspect examination finds a fair number of subtle hairlines in the obverse left and upper fields, suggesting an old wipe that leads to the cataloger's grade: [AU/cleaned]. That said, remaining details likely fall within AU-55 to MS-60 sharpness and the surface suffers unusually few abrasions.

Lot #241 - Joseph L. Bates encased postage 1C stamp
Hammer: $550
Collector Lots-Exonumia
K.R. Consignment. HB-50, EP-6, R.6. JOSEPH L BATES / FANCY GOODS / 129 WASHINGTON St / BOSTON. Cataloger's grade: [very-fine] at the bare minimum. Possibly choice due to lovely, even powdery brass patina, the eye-appeal is improved a little by the stamp being better centered than some; U.S. POSTAGE is mostly legible beneath the upper rim of the encasing. All Joseph Bates encased stamps are rare, the 1-cent pieces being the only reasonably collectable denomination. Quality of the original mica is quite outstanding for the type, showing a faint hairline scratch but minimum visual impediments otherwise.
