Lot #502 - 1857-S Spiked Shield S.S. Central America with gold dust PCGS MS-65+
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
Ex-S.S. Central America, "spiked shield" reverse. 9 graded MS-65+, 17 higher at PCGS. The enormous PCGS slab also contains a pinch of "California gold dust" although the encapsulated particles are irritatingly difficult to appreciate through the curiously frosted viewing panel. What is easy to appreciate is the exceptional quality of the 1857-S double-eagle, which appears fully MS-66 to the cataloger's eye. Outrageous, very-bright pale luster predominates over the impressively detailed motifs that suffer merely trivial little bagmarks. Upgrade may be denied by PCGS due to faint, shiny sliding abrasions left and below the chin but otherwise, the surface hardly looks like something which spent more than a century within the salty waters of the Atlantic.

Lot #877 - 1794 PCGS VG-10 CAC
Hammer: $1,400
Half Cents-Liberty Cap, Head Facing Right
Land And Home Collection. Cohen-9 but the edge cannot be seen due to the old PCGS slab insert. A die crack enters the Liberty cap near 9:00 on the obverse and suggests the coin was struck between die states 1.0 and 2.0. An exquisite surface possesses slightly glossy Hershey patina form edge to edge, and bold details on the obverse. HALF CENT on the reverse has been mostly effaced by good, honest wear.
