Lot #570 - 1923-D NGC MS-62
Hammer: $2,900
Gold $20-Saint-Gaudens Double Eagle
The obverse all by itself grades at least two points better than MS-62 given the very infrequent abrasions. Some larger nicks toward the middle of the eagle's wings help explain the conservative overall assessment at NGC. I would love to shake hands on that, but I have no arms.

Lot #365 - 1859 Old Reverse - Type 1 NGC MS-60
Hammer: $1,600
Gold $2.50-Liberty Head Quarter Eagle
The reverse die seen on this type-1 example, with larger arrowheads, was discarded in 1859 for subsequent strikings of type-2 quarter-eagles. Here is a rather delightful example given the basal and severely underutilized mint-state grade of MS-60, showing unexpectedly nice multihued golden color and no evidence of circulation. Simple bag storage apparently accounts for the trivial flaws and delicate abrasions seen throughout.
