Lot #188 - Uncut Subject Sheet of eighteen 1935-D $1 Fr# 1613sub18 - PMG GemCU-65
US Currency-Silver Certificates, Small
A frame away. This vast sheet of (18) uncut 1935-D $1 silver certificates offer very low serial numbers that range from G00000058 through G00136058. Additionally, this sheet boasts nearly perfect centering and very uniform margins. PMG has correctly graded this sheet as Gem uncirculated 65 EPQ and there is no doubt that this scarcely seen (GG Block) run is more than deserving of this lofty grade. One could simply frame this sheet and call it a piece of art (ck).

Lot #550 - 1909-S NGC MS-66
Hammer: $17,500
Gold $20-Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle
13 graded MS-66, zero higher at NGC. Not so many years ago, 1909-S was considered rare in high grade until a hoard of better examples entered the market and helped increase the supply of gem examples. That said, this spectacular coin, showing exceptional copper-gold color, exceeds the gem grade by a full point at NGC, and places it smack dab into the discussion of finest-known pieces at that grading company (PCGS claims two higher graded examples).

Close inspection reveals superbly frosted surfaces and a lack of major marks; the cataloger suggests the one lone depression down the left edge of Liberty's gown may be the most noticeable. On the reverse, what appears at first to be a micro pinscratch could actually be an interesting strikethrough, which could then be of significant interest as a provenance marker for a coin this scarce. An exquisite, much better date within the series that would be almost impossible to beat in terms of quality.
