Lot #246 - 1834 Liberty quarter eagle XF details/mount removed, and an 1835 half eagle XF details/filed rims, both PCGS
Collector Lots-Gold Type
Zee's Densities Collection. Tougher classic head gold coins offer type possibilities despite some PCGS disclaimers. First is an 1834 quarter eagle that shows upper rim anomalies suggesting a prior mount for jewelry use, and for sure, the surface glitters as if such was the case. Accompanying is an 1835 half eagle, both sides a little glossy and showing errant rim filing at the very bottom of the obverse. Two coin lot.

Lot #419 - 1818 BD-1 NGC MS-63
Hammer: $49,750
Gold $5-Capped Bust to Left Half Eagle
Bass-Dannreuther-1 (R.5), early dies with no cracks. Perhaps as a result of the use of fresh dies, both sides received delightful sharpness as-struck, and the kind of beckoning luster that is requisite for a choice grade. A mere whisper on each of the eagle's talons could be the only possible indications of a strike that barely missed 100% accuracy. The obverse shows trivial adjustment marks that somehow evade the field and land only on the extreme right edge -- a bona fide perk for the collector who demands a minimum of possible distractions. One tiny copper spot past the fifth star hardly requires mention, but what must be noticed is the decidedly luxuriant eye-appeal that almost seems impossible of 200+ year-old gold coinage.
