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 #478 - 1907 Indian No Motto NGC MS-66
Hammer: $11,500
Gold $10-Indian Head Eagle
Three attempts to create well struck examples of the lovely 1907 "no motto" required the mint to settle upon the normal rims example seen here, but thankfully, all that preceding trial-and-error (i.e. the "wire rim" and "rolled edge" examples) seems to have given Philadelphia plentiful experience in churning out high-quality eagles for circulation. Here is a fabulous example with devastating satin luster and an outstanding strike, not to mention phenomenally attractive yolk-gold hue. Only exceedingly small contact marks can be found on either side. Although 1907 is actually one of the relatively obtainable "no motto" date, the status as first-year-of-series makes it a target for type collectors.

Lot #307 - Native American Unsigned Squash Blossom
Hammer: $425
Jewelry-Silver
Circa 1960/1970, this sterling silver (tested, not marked) and turquoise squash blossom necklace features 10 blossoms set between seamed beads and an 8-stone Naja at the bottom. The design of the piece is mostly original with a slight twist on modernism. The turquoise used in the making appears to be from the Cripple Creek mine. Condition is very nice for its age with a vintage patina to the metal. Unsigned piece so tribal affiliation is unknown. Length 28”, 5.78 troy ounces.
