Lot #875 - 1810/09 PCGS XF details/cleaned
Large Cents-Classic Head
Sheldon-281, no clash marks and thus suggestive of an earlier strike. This Sheldon variety always seems to come a little softly struck yet the headband shows plainly and most definition within the strands of hair are nicely rendered. PCGS states "cleaned" but a more thorough inspection suggests that corrosion has been relieved from the surface, the whole coin later recolored nicely and nearly to the state of an original piece.

Lot #851 - 1859 NGC PR-66
Hammer: $4,100
Small Cents-Indian Head
18 graded PR-66, 1 graded PR-66 "star", 1 higher at NGC. Debut of the Indian cent in 1859 led to many being saved in mint-state, but for a series as popular as this, both proof and circulation strikes are in heavy demand at all superior grade levels. NGC nailed the grade for this utterly charming, very choice proof example. One cannot help but admire pinpoint accuracy of strike and surface preservation that seems closer to the superb gem level than not. Obverse fields are only slightly flashy against overall ultra-fine matte texture while the mirrors are by contrast a little more pronounced on the reverse.

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.
