Lot #113 - South Africa - 1889 Cape of Good Hope Bronze, Short Horn penny - NGC PR-64 BN
World Coins-South Africa
KM#XPn1, Brussels mint. Exquisitely well struck as can be inferred by exceptional delineation of individual pebbles that textures the ribbon on the reverse. The grade might have reached the gem level fully if not for subtle, faded in lines on Victoria's cheek.

Silver Dollar-Morgan
Lemonade Stand Collection. A pretty inverted arc of steely cobalt-blue and russet-orange toning sweeps through the date, balanced by pleasing platinum-tan coloration overall. Two small nicks near the very bottom of the cheek deny an even loftier grade, but the problem-free, vintage surface and excellent strike underscore expectations for the very-gem grade level.
