Lot #885 - 1825 CACG AU-55BN
Large Cents-Liberty Head
Newcomb-6 (R.3), readily identifiable by doubling of BER_Y as well as CENT being spelled with progressively lower oriented characters. Careful brushing of the surface in the past has allowed attractive partial luster to be revealed over the mahogany-grey and reddish brown surface, disturbed by only the faintest amount of pinscratch effect on the lower reverse.

Lot #457 - 1929 PCGS MS-64+ CAC
Hammer: $52,750
Gold $5-Indian Head Half Eagle
17 graded MS-64+, 14 (all MS-65) higher at PCGS. The final entry into the Indian half-eagle also turns out to be one of the most difficult to obtain at the gem grade level. In some respects, 1929 could be considered the "easiest key" or the "most difficult semi-key" depending on how one delineates rarity. Probably only six other dates prove more elusive to collectors at this level.

Strong luster checks off the first item on the list of accolades, followed immediately by what appears to be unexpectedly and pleasantly original color, including medium golden iridescence joined by much grapefruit-orange accenting. A very good but not quite excellent strike is mostly responsible for all that nice energy, but the grade gets held back slightly by two tiny nicks on the brow and another smaller nick on the lip.
