Lot #927 - 1920-S PCGS MS-65RB CAC
Small Cents-Lincoln, Wheat
D.S. Consignment. 41 graded MS-65 RB, 4 higher at PCGS. Like many early-to-twenties Lincoln cents, availability becomes very stifled at the gem grade level, the 1920-S showing fewer than a handful better than this gem with an "RB" designation. And no wonder this coin was showered with accolades as it presents a very good strike and copper-rose hue that stands only a shade off of full red, aside from infrequent, subtle brownish flecks on the reverse. Poised for an aggressive bid.

Lot #831 - 1950-D NGC MS-67 5FS
Hammer: $450
Nickels-Jefferson
Clem Stevens Collection. 67 graded MS-67 FS, 2 graded MS-67 FS "star", 11 higher at NGC. The low mintage of 1950-D (3-million) was recognized quickly by collectors who purchased and set aside full rolls of high-grade examples. That said, very few reach the upper stratosphere at NGC with enough strike quality to garner a "full steps" designation. On top of that, this is a flat-out centerfold quality coin showing incredible luster and pastel hues of apricot-yellow, chartreuse-violet, and magenta-rose. At most, a handful of minuscule abrasions might be found on either side.
