Lot #504 - 1865 NGC AU-58
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
A stately example from the end of the Civil War, the surface glows with soft radiance impaired by only a whisper of abrading within all fields. Brighter golden-yellow surfaces manage to evade major contact marks -- not all that common for large gold coins of this vintage. Sharply struck off of dies showing a light clash on Liberty's central portrait.

Lot #785 - 1907 PCGS PR-67 CAC, Ex-Pittman
Hammer: $2,150
Dimes-Barber
Ex-Pittman (not listed on slab insert). 15 graded PR-67, 4 higher at PCGS Sadly, this coin has somehow lost its famous pedigree along its journey into the PCGS slab, as somebody foolishly (perhaps) removed it from the original NGC holder (SN: 638831-001) where it had the same grade (and also a green CAC sticker). Oh the lengths some will travel to eke a few extra dollars out of a plastic holder... but we digress. The Pittman dime is nothing short of incredible as it displays lovely, tasteful obverse peripheral toning and enormously satisfying indigo-violet hue across the entire reverse. As befits the grade, the surface shows simply zero distractions, except perhaps a singular carbon speckle at the front of Liberty's neck, which is helpful in identifying it for future generations. A Scotsman Cataloger's Choice Award for obvious reasons, and we can only hope that the future owner will take the steps necessary to restore the esteemed pedigree to whatever slab the coin ends up in.
