Lot #158 - 1886 $2 Fr# 243 - AU
US Currency-Silver Certificates, Large
Nearly perfect margins surround the front while the back of the note features very good margins all the way around. A quick crease about an inch away from the top left corner denies CU consideration but the note presents as new at first glance.

Lot #814 - 1885 PCGS AU-50
Hammer: $1,100
Nickels-Liberty Head
The 1885 is one of those key dates that seems highly available in low grades (think AG to VG), locatable in high grade (Choice BU and up), but about impossible to find in grades between those two extremes. Along comes this ideally graded AU-50 that boasts absolutely extraordinary, vintage medium-grey color and fair luster that should combine to push the high bids to the upper limit for the grade. Smoothly worn and unquestionably problem-free, the coin even benefits from a nice, small die chip on "D" of UNITED to create even more interest.
