Lot #367 - 1911-D Strong D PCGS MS-62
Gold $2.50-Indian Head Quarter Eagle
Strong mintmark -- indeed about as bold of a "D" as one will ever find on this key quarter-eagle. So early seems to be the die-state that one wished it would be possible to view the edge outside of the gloopy PCGS insert. Both sides exhibit diminished luster, perhaps because of denser carrot-gold patina, and a staccato pinscratch sneaks down the forward part of the Indian's headdress, assuredly helping to determine the grade.

Lot #751 - 1818/5 NGC MS-63
Hammer: $4,000
Quarter Dollars-Capped Bust
Robert Michaels Collection. Browning-1. One of the most outrageous coins to exist is the Newman example of this same die-marriage graded NGC MS-67 "star"... but it likely costs a third of a million dollars today. For everyone else, there are nicer choice UNC examples like the present salmon-grey specimen also certified by NGC. The surface seems immaculate -- certainly less bagmarked than one expects of the grade while an impressive strike brings up all of the stars as well as intriguing clash marks strewn into the fields. Minimal planchet striations over the lower bust are likely adjustment marks but they were mostly ironed out by the excellent strike. In this die state, all that remains visible of the underdigit is a small diagonal in the upper loop of "8" and a tiny remnant of the vertical part of the flag adhering to the left.

Lot #308 - Native American Unsigned Squash Blossom
Hammer: $320
Jewelry-Silver
Circa 1960/1970, this overly large sterling silver (tested, not marked) and chrysocolla squash blossom necklace features 10 blossoms set between seamed beads and a 7-stone Naja at the bottom. With an overly bold design, the stone used in the making emulates a darker grade of turquoise than usually found in this type of necklace. Condition is very nice for its age with a vintage patina to the metal. Unsigned piece so tribal affiliation is unknown. Length 26”, 8.40 troy ounces.
