Lot #822 - 1919-D NGC MS-64
Hammer: $1,700
Nickels-Buffalo
134 graded MS-64, 32 higher at NGC. Long recognized as a strike-rarity within the series, one might not be aware of that reputation when examining only this boldly defined and cleanly struck example. Excellent definition down the Indian's braid, across the top of his head and an unusually sharp horn and tail (for the date) all speak to the primary reason a specialist will want to pursue this nickel. That said, the cataloger suspects the surface has been coated with a thin layer of protectant which creates a slightly glossy effect.

Lot #308 - Native American Unsigned Squash Blossom
Hammer: $320
Jewelry-Silver
Circa 1960/1970, this overly large sterling silver (tested, not marked) and chrysocolla squash blossom necklace features 10 blossoms set between seamed beads and a 7-stone Naja at the bottom. With an overly bold design, the stone used in the making emulates a darker grade of turquoise than usually found in this type of necklace. Condition is very nice for its age with a vintage patina to the metal. Unsigned piece so tribal affiliation is unknown. Length 26”, 8.40 troy ounces.
