  • Lot #821 - 1796 NGC VF-25
  • Dimes-Draped Bust
  • JR-6, R.3. A small break crosses over "7" in the date, next to a radial crack that projects upward along the left side of "9", and these are joined by additional cracks, especially radial cracks in the upper left obverse. Sharpness may slightly exceed VF-25 yet most likely, NGC settled on a five point demerit due to old, modest cleaning that now shows as trivial gloss across the surface. Fortunately, old toning and dirt remain within protected areas. A small, curiously machine-like abrasion shows to the right of the final star.

  • Lot #18 - China - 1927 $1 "Military Issue" L&M-58 (incorrect on label) E NENTO CIIINA Spelling Error, DDR - PCGS AU details/cleaned
  • Hammer: $775
  • World Coins-China
  • L&M-58, KM#318a.1, error variety much akin to an "Office Boy" reverse such that MENENTO and CIIINA are misspelled. The PCGS insert incorrectly states "LM-51E" which actually appears to be a non-existent variety, perhaps a perversion of "LM-58"? If so, that would be perfectly in character for this famous and hotly pursued variety which has very few known examples. A "cleaned" disclaimer might scare away nobody who understands the popular nature of the coin, but not mentioned is a tiny dig in the obverse left field that has been filled in. A curious example on multiple levels yet one which will see persistent bids for sure.
