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 #719 - 1815/2 NGC VF-35
Hammer: $4,300
Half Dollars-Capped Bust, Lettered Edge
O-101, prime dies. There is no evidence of clashed dies for this famous key to the series. Scarcity for the date can be explained by the one-day delivery of the entire mintage -- 47-thousand -- on January 10,1816 which was the day immediately preceding a major fire at the Mint. The mint was not operational again for practically the rest of the year. One might not state that the surfaces for this sharp example are entirely original as some glossy tan texture shows, interspersed with purple and neon-violet peripheral accents, but the coin suffers no damage nor distracting issues. Individual feathers within the eagle's right (observed) wing are nicely outlined while a few feathers in the left wing merge just slightly.
