Lot #320 - 1802/1 PCGS AU details/cleaned
Hammer: $7,750
Gold $2.50-Capped Bust to Right Quarter Eagle
Bass-Dannreuther-1 (R.4), the purported overdated obverse that has a small diagonal defect within the loop of the "2", and which was mated to three different reverses. This is considered the "common" die pairing for 1802 although obviously, no 1802 quarter-eagle is really common, especially with such prodigious detailing. PCGS correctly calls out cleaning, but the effect is far from disastrous for this rather decent looking early gold type.

Lot #647 - 1887-S PCGS MS-65+
Hammer: $2,550
Silver Dollar-Morgan
28 graded MS-65+, 53 higher at PCGS. While the reverse is only lightly toned with silvery-character overall, surrounded by a nice ring of amber gold, the obverse offers even more attractive peach coloration that dazzles the eye because of ravishing mint luster. San Francisco was back in the habit of striking high-quality dollars by 1887, as is quickly discernible by every last detail erupting within Liberty's tresses as well as within the eagle's feathers. No major marks at all affect the surface.
