Lot #400 - 1842-D Large Date ANACS AU-53 details/cleaned
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
Large date, large letters. 1842-D wrangles with 1861-D as a contender for the rarest Dahlonega half-eagle, and a high-grade survivor of any description will be in demand by astute collectors. ANACS claims this AU sharpness example to be cleaned, and indeed, glossy lemon-yellow shows across both sides, accompanied by obvious hairlines in the obverse lower right field. Perhaps as important as anything, the surface actually displays a lot fewer abrasions than typical for a southern mint gold coin.

Lot #835 - 1884 NGC PR-67+ CAMEO
Hammer: $1,650
Nickel Three-Cent Pieces-Nickel Three-Cent Pieces
5 graded PR-67+ CAM, 6 higher at NGC. Unlike many overdipped examples, the surface exhibits traces of bone-grey patina that only emphasizes tremendous cameo effect. The grade might reach for "finest known" candidacy if not for a slender linear abrasion beneath the chin -- the only evidence of contact that can readily be found with a loupe.
