Lot #697 - 1892-CC NGC MS-63+
Silver Dollar-Morgan
VAM-14A, and one could not ask for a more exemplary example of the variety as it offers exactly the sequence of die cracks as seen in the VAM guide, as well as two spikes on the nose. Damaged dies may explain why Carson City struck this issue typically with more shallow depth than usual and isolated softness just above the ear is one characteristic. That said, eye-appeal exceeds expectations of a choice example as the reverse displays rather astonishing yolk-orange, sea-green and coral-blue hues.

Lot #785 - 1907 PCGS PR-67 CAC, Ex-Pittman
Hammer: $2,150
Dimes-Barber
Ex-Pittman (not listed on slab insert). 15 graded PR-67, 4 higher at PCGS Sadly, this coin has somehow lost its famous pedigree along its journey into the PCGS slab, as somebody foolishly (perhaps) removed it from the original NGC holder (SN: 638831-001) where it had the same grade (and also a green CAC sticker). Oh the lengths some will travel to eke a few extra dollars out of a plastic holder... but we digress. The Pittman dime is nothing short of incredible as it displays lovely, tasteful obverse peripheral toning and enormously satisfying indigo-violet hue across the entire reverse. As befits the grade, the surface shows simply zero distractions, except perhaps a singular carbon speckle at the front of Liberty's neck, which is helpful in identifying it for future generations. A Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award for obvious reasons, and we can only hope that the future owner will take the steps necessary to restore the esteemed pedigree to whatever slab the coin ends up in.

Lot #306 - Native American Unsigned Squash Blossom
Hammer: $475
Jewelry-Silver
Circa 1960/1970, this sterling silver (tested, not marked) and turquoise squash blossom necklace features 10 blossoms set between seamed beads and a 6-stone Naja at the bottom. The turquoise used in the making appears to be from the Cripple Creek mine. Condition is very nice for its age with a vintage patina to the metal. Unsigned piece so tribal affiliation is unknown. Length 23”, 5.31 troy ounces.
