Lot #84 - Mexico - 1885-ZS 8 reales - NGC MS-65
World Coins-Mexico
KM#377.13, Zacatecas mint. Fiery orange mixes with cobalt and angular grey splashes along the obverse periphery to promote outstanding eye-appeal. Details were wonderfully impressed near the centers, but a shattering reverse die is to blame for somewhat weaker peripheral sharpness.

Lot #653 - 1889-CC AU details
Hammer: $3,700
Silver Dollar-Morgan
Cataloger's grade: [AU/reverse tooled]. The net value might be something like VF-35 to XF-40 as the obverse appears natural and attractive to the eye while retaining about a third of the as-struck mint luster. Weirdly, the entire reverse field area has been tooled to shallow extent -- nearly invisible beneath steam-grey patina.
