  • Lot #502 - 1857-S Spiked Shield S.S. Central America with gold dust PCGS MS-65+
  • Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
  • Ex-S.S. Central America, "spiked shield" reverse. 9 graded MS-65+, 17 higher at PCGS. The enormous PCGS slab also contains a pinch of "California gold dust" although the encapsulated particles are irritatingly difficult to appreciate through the curiously frosted viewing panel. What is easy to appreciate is the exceptional quality of the 1857-S double-eagle, which appears fully MS-66 to the cataloger's eye. Outrageous, very-bright pale luster predominates over the impressively detailed motifs that suffer merely trivial little bagmarks. Upgrade may be denied by PCGS due to faint, shiny sliding abrasions left and below the chin but otherwise, the surface hardly looks like something which spent more than a century within the salty waters of the Atlantic.

  • Lot #580 - 1799 PCGS AU-53
  • Hammer: $4,825
  • Silver Dollar-Draped Bust
  • Robert Michaels Collection. Bolender-9, BB-166, "apostrophe reverse", the most common die-marriage for 1799. This example seemingly surpasses diagnostics for die-state V, which references basically a shattered obverse die and stars drawn to the edge. While very common, the B-9 is collectable by die-state, and such a collector might be interested to know that this is the latest die-state ever personally examined by the cataloger, most assuredly terminal and a fascinating case study as such. Add in very decent aesthetic qualities, including midnight-violet coloration throughout and a twinge of peripheral luster and one has a compelling case for the Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award.
