Lot #348 - 1904 PCGS PR-67CAM
Gold $2.50-Liberty Head Quarter Eagle
3 graded PR-67 CAM, 1 higher at PCGS. Between them, PCGS and NGC have managed fewer than fifteen aggregate UCAM/DCAM events in any grade, speaking to the difficulty of locating a specimen with superior contrast. This is partly due to a lack of special effort on the part of the mint to create high-contrast proof dies after the turn of the century. Nevertheless, this coin boasts exceptionally reflective fields on the obverse -- not quite UCAM but close -- and very good mirrors on the reverse. Contrast is thereby enhanced, but truthfully, the frosted-matte texture on the devices is also not strong enough to yield the kind of contrast that a UCAM designation demands.

Technically, the coin appears virtually flawless under 8x magnification, with fields that are as bright and pristine as possible and showing an absolute absence of hairlines. A single, tiny, sintered dot floats in space beneath the hair bun, just right of the smallest imaginable comma-shaped abrasion, and together, these could provide a pedigree marker for future collectors. A lintmark also occupies one point of the eleventh star.

Lot #299 - 1852 "900" $50 U.S. Assay Office AU details in a Capital Plastics holder
Hammer: $30,000
Territorial Gold-Territorial Gold
Morals And Liberty Collection. Kagin-14 (R.5+). Cataloger's grade represents DETAILS ONLY: AU. The coin has never been removed from its current Capital Plastics holder and we respect the wishes of the consignor to leave it so. Through the plastic, this massive production appears to be generally free from edge nicks and corner dings that tend to plague the series. Further, a tremendous strike exceeds expectations as it reached peripheral lettering often missed by even high-grade mint-state examples. All four digits in the date stand out clearly, and the final "A" in CALIFORNIA is strong as are all the letters nearest the corners. The eight points are where the most metal flow must occur, hence details tend to be weakest there.
