Lot #421 - 1899 FS-301 (not on label), Repunched Date, NGC MS-65
Hammer: $1,450
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
FS-301. Perhaps because of the inherent cost of collecting gold coins, varieties are sorely underappreciated, but 1899/899 is one of the best available to collectors and this appears to be an earlier die-state example. The extra loop left of the "8" is plainly visible with a loupe -- some examples of the same repunched date really only show the extra outlines left of the 9s.

Lot #431 - 1882-CC NGC AU-58
Hammer: $6,750
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
Although not truly rare, the 1882-CC sports that all-consuming mintmark that many collectors cannot resist, and the attractive sub-hundred thousand mintage helps ensure forever popularity of the date. This lustrous and fully golden-yellow example displays the typical, slightly soft strike usually seen, yet the details give up almost nothing to brief circulation. In fact, the only real evidence of commercial usage appears to be a number of fleeting hairlines in the fields.
