  • Lot #840 - 1916-D Mercury PCGS AU-53
  • Dimes-Mercury
  • Even to a specialized collector who does not dabble at all in Mercury dimes, the 1916-D requires no introduction, since it has never had challengers for key-date status (ignoring esoteric "grade rarity" discussions) and is famous on multiple levels. The surface of this AU-53 example genuinely has the lustrous quality of an AU-55 coin, and without question, pewter-tan patina draping over the surface appears to be fully original. Therefore, one must probe other aspects of the grading process to figure out why a choice grade wasn't in play. Closer inspection reveals delicate, fluttering hairlines in the obverse right field, and additional superficial hairlining on the portrait, as well as similar activity within the reverse fields. Fortunately, long placement within a correct numismatic environment has permitted the surface to an antiqued appearance that so many enthusiasts covet, and absolutely nowhere can one locate even the tiniest abrasion.

  • Lot #2 - Ancient Greece - Three (138-129 BC) Antiochus VII tetradrachm- NGC XF
  • Hammer: $600
  • Ancient Coins-Ancient Greece
  • A trio of Greece-Syria tetradrachms represents a fairly common but popular "money of the Bible" series, as designated by NGC. Each has been graded extremely-fine, although as-expected, limited production technology creates a lot of variety herein. One example was nicely centered on a huge flan while the others are more typically smaller diameter with a portion of each obverse more-or-less falling off the edge of the planchet. Three coin lot.
