Lot #319 - 1884 NGC MS-67+
Gold Dollars-Indian Princess Head, Large Head
Mintage: 7500. 2 graded MS-67+. 3 higher at NGC. Low mintages don't typically grant large quantities of high-grade survivors, but the low mintage run of gold dollars seem to have been saved in unusually high quantities. Here is a borderline outrageous coin that could challenge the appeal of many well-preserved proof examples as both sides display exquisite sharpness and obvious cameo contrast. Apparently a bit of a later striking, orange peel effect has begun to develop within the hair, while continued thorough examination finds two microscopic abrasions right of "1" in the denomination.

Lot #723 - 1858 NGC MS-64 Star
Hammer: $2,300
Half Dollars-Liberty Seated
Impetus for the "star" becomes instantly apparent upon first view as bull's-eye album toning on the obverse and circumferential toning on the reverse are to die for. Outer rings of chartreuse-indigo, cobalt-cinnamon and champagne gold align exactly with the classic color progression expected. The coin also boasts an outstanding strike despite cracked dies, particularly for the reverse.
