Lot #643 - 1878-CC NGC MS-64 PL
Silver Dollar-Morgan
While hundreds of examples meet standards at either service for MS-64PL, the present example appears finer than average due to reflectivity not far off DMPL. Delicate scattered abrasions get magnified as usual by the mirrors but on the whole, the crystal-bright character looms large on the eye-appeal scale.

Lot #511 - 1873-S Open 3 PCGS AU-58 CAC
Hammer: $2,900
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
Ash-grey patina tends to subdue the luster on either side, a remnant of delicate circulation although the reverse seems slightly more energetic. One medium nick just below the ear joins a plethora of other much smaller, scattered abrasions. The reverse was struck off of a moderately failed die, a circular die crack connecting many of the peripheral letters.
