Lot #84 - Mexico - 1885-ZS 8 reales - NGC MS-65
World Coins-Mexico
KM#377.13, Zacatecas mint. Fiery orange mixes with cobalt and angular grey splashes along the obverse periphery to promote outstanding eye-appeal. Details were wonderfully impressed near the centers, but a shattering reverse die is to blame for somewhat weaker peripheral sharpness.

Lot #458 - 1839 Large Letters, Head of 1838 NGC AU-55
Hammer: $7,500
Gold $10-Capped Bust to Right Eagle
Mintage: 25,801 for a variety appropriately known as the "old portrait" obverse. The design compared side by side with that of latter years is distinctly different and leaner by comparison. The right edge of "9" in the date shows recutting sometimes mistaken as 98, and the portrait has a swirl of hair laying across the ear, rather than above it.

An untroubled example with minimal luster, the surface exhibits mostly mustard-yellow accents over pale golden color typical of the era. While rather well struck overall, five points of wear, likely joined by limits of then-current technology kept away perfect delineation of the wavy hair at the top of the portrait. The eagle's feathers are individually sculpted, however. The coin overall shows only expectant small abrasions -- not a single major mark requires separate mention.

From France, this 18K yellow gold leopard brooch resembles a very popular design by Cartier. The textured finished modernist design displays a leaping leopard and is an absolutely beautiful design. Dimensions 1.75” x .75”, 2.8 dwt.
