Lot #392 - 1809/8 PCGS AU details/plugged
Gold $5-Capped Bust to Left Half Eagle
Bass-Dannreuther-1, R.3. Undoubtedly dedicated to a necklace early in life, this 1809/8 capped bust half-eagle suffered the indignity of a hole piercing the field at 12:00. A fairly competent effort was made to fill it in, with better results shown on the reverse.

Lot #365 - 1859 Old Reverse - Type 1 NGC MS-60
Hammer: $1,600
Gold $2.50-Liberty Head Quarter Eagle
The reverse die seen on this type-1 example, with larger arrowheads, was discarded in 1859 for subsequent strikings of type-2 quarter-eagles. Here is a rather delightful example given the basal and severely underutilized mint-state grade of MS-60, showing unexpectedly nice multihued golden color and no evidence of circulation. Simple bag storage apparently accounts for the trivial flaws and delicate abrasions seen throughout.
