Lot #294 - 1852 $1 J-148 PCGS PR-65 CAC
Patterns-Patterns
Judd-148, R.6, and a very rare annular production by the U.S. mint with a proportionally large opening in the center to permit a larger overall denomination with the proper amount of gold content. The necessarily narrow remaining planchet area permits only limited design elements in addition to the 1852 date as well as USofA and the DOLLAR denomination. An exquisitely original example, this pattern features a remarkably high-relief fin around the central hold, speaking to a powerful strike but simultaneously speaking to one of the technical challenges of striking a holed coin.

Lot #483 - 1910-S PCGS MS-64
Hammer: $9,750
Gold $10-Indian Head Eagle
35 graded MS-64, 11 higher at PCGS. 1910-S has that curious population distribution whereby it exists by the thousands in circulated grades, and the hundreds in lower mint-state grade. Coins that grade near or at the gem grade level are an altogether different story as it suddenly becomes a bona fide key -- a "Top 10" sort of coin in other words. Given the mintage of 811-thousand, one must assume that the issue was widely distributed to circulation or melted.

As befits San Francisco gold production of the era, this is an intensely attractive and smoothly lustrous example that benefits from a decent strike. Trivial softness exists toward the ends of some feathers and at the eagle's shoulders, though. A carbon speck just off the end of Liberty's nose has expanded a bit into a lavender spot while a splash of additional lilac-gold toning spreads out over the upper right area above the headdress.
