Lot #697 - 1892-CC NGC MS-63+
Silver Dollar-Morgan
VAM-14A, and one could not ask for a more exemplary example of the variety as it offers exactly the sequence of die cracks as seen in the VAM guide, as well as two spikes on the nose. Damaged dies may explain why Carson City struck this issue typically with more shallow depth than usual and isolated softness just above the ear is one characteristic. That said, eye-appeal exceeds expectations of a choice example as the reverse displays rather astonishing yolk-orange, sea-green and coral-blue hues.

Lot #458 - 1839 Large Letters, Head of 1838 NGC AU-55
Hammer: $7,500
Gold $10-Capped Bust to Right Eagle
Mintage: 25,801 for a variety appropriately known as the "old portrait" obverse. The design compared side by side with that of latter years is distinctly different and leaner by comparison. The right edge of "9" in the date shows recutting sometimes mistaken as 98, and the portrait has a swirl of hair laying across the ear, rather than above it.

An untroubled example with minimal luster, the surface exhibits mostly mustard-yellow accents over pale golden color typical of the era. While rather well struck overall, five points of wear, likely joined by limits of then-current technology kept away perfect delineation of the wavy hair at the top of the portrait. The eagle's feathers are individually sculpted, however. The coin overall shows only expectant small abrasions -- not a single major mark requires separate mention.
