Lot #399 - 1842-D Small Date NGC AU details/cleaned
Gold $5-Liberty Head Half Eagle
More available than the "large date" logotype but still hardly common given the mintage of under 60-thousand pieces. The pale, lackluster surface displays a thin coating of haze that helps subdue any potential remaining luster. Strike quality seems to be about as nice as is ever seen for 1842-D.

Lot #399 - 1927 PCGS MS-65
Hammer: $1,200
Gold $2.50-Indian Head Quarter Eagle
A common date even at the gem level, a 1927 this nice serves perfectly for type representation. The surface, pale and pristine, manifests outstanding luster for a sunken-relief strike, and the only detraction appears to be an erratic hairline mostly hidden within the headdress.
