Lot #616 - Three 1884-CC GSA NGC MS-64 PL
Silver Dollar-Morgan
GSA holders enclose a brilliant trio of Morgan dollars, all dated 1884-CC. First is an off-white blazer showing an incredibly full strike and barely prooflike fields, followed by a sparkling, borderline colorless example with even stronger details and better mirrors. Third and final is a pure silver-white example, once again only barely prooflike and in this case, the strike is a percentage point or two off of absolutely perfection. Three coin lot.

Lot #428 - 1857 PCGS MS-64+ TOP POP
Hammer: $20,500
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
2 graded MS-64+, zero higher at PCGS, thus placing claims as the "finest known" 1857 five-dollar gold piece. NGC has never graded one above MS-63+, affirming the extreme rarity of choice and better examples. That so few survive seems surprising given a not-so-high but reasonable mintage of 98-thousand coins.

Tilting the coin back and forth beneath good lighting reveals exactly the kind of gleaming, satin-textured flowline effect one expects as the mint had ample experience striking superior half-eagles by 1857. One copper spot clings to the first start and a tiny carbon dot randomly flings into the obverse right field. A loupe also detects a one tiny hairline at the upper chin, with this trio of characteristics perhaps conspiring to limit full gem potential. The reverse seems particularly free from any mentionable defects while the entire presentation takes full advantage of an exceptional strike.
