Lot #875 - 1810/09 PCGS XF details/cleaned
Large Cents-Classic Head
Sheldon-281, no clash marks and thus suggestive of an earlier strike. This Sheldon variety always seems to come a little softly struck yet the headband shows plainly and most definition within the strands of hair are nicely rendered. PCGS states "cleaned" but a more thorough inspection suggests that corrosion has been relieved from the surface, the whole coin later recolored nicely and nearly to the state of an original piece.

Lot #374 - 1901 PCGS MS-66+
Hammer: $1,550
Gold $2.50-Liberty Head Quarter Eagle
The strike borders upon perfection and hammered out precise central details for every one of the obverse stars. In accordance with phenomenal production, both sides overflow with satin-laden energy that threatens to spill right over the rims. Finally, and perhaps best of all, a minimum of exceedingly frail hairlines are the only meaningful grade-dependent items worth mentioning.
