Lot #823 - 1821 Large Date PCGS VF-30, 1827 PCGS VF-30, and an 1833 F
Hammer: $650
Dimes-Capped Bust
Revert Peaks Consignment. The collector putting together a Red Book collection of Capped Bust dimes can fill three holes quickly with this nicer, middle grade trio. Included are: 1821 large date (a little glossy but boldly detailed and showing gunmetal accents along with trace luster), 1827 (uncommonly original and boasting particularly sharp reverse detailing), and 1833 (very strong Fine with claims to VF and featuring lovely powder-grey patina and an utterly problem-free surface). Three coin lot.

Lot #483 - 1910-S PCGS MS-64
Hammer: $9,750
Gold $10-Indian Head Eagle
35 graded MS-64, 11 higher at PCGS. 1910-S has that curious population distribution whereby it exists by the thousands in circulated grades, and the hundreds in lower mint-state grade. Coins that grade near or at the gem grade level are an altogether different story as it suddenly becomes a bona fide key -- a "Top 10" sort of coin in other words. Given the mintage of 811-thousand, one must assume that the issue was widely distributed to circulation or melted.

As befits San Francisco gold production of the era, this is an intensely attractive and smoothly lustrous example that benefits from a decent strike. Trivial softness exists toward the ends of some feathers and at the eagle's shoulders, though. A carbon speck just off the end of Liberty's nose has expanded a bit into a lavender spot while a splash of additional lilac-gold toning spreads out over the upper right area above the headdress.
