Lot #783 - 1916-D Mercury PCGS MS-64FB
Hammer: $25,250
Dimes-Mercury
107 graded MS-64 FB, 76 higher at PCGS. Without question the most recognized key in the Mercury Dime series, and a "name key" over the entire U.S. compendium, the 1916-D dime requires no introduction to collectors. Like the 1909-S VDB cent, a surprising number of high-grade examples exist because they share the status of "first year of issue" coins, meaning the sheer number saved by contemporary Americans led to some fortuitous circumstances that laid aside a small percentage of mint-state survivors. Exceptionally original copper-grey patina completely endows this contact-free dime and as expected of a specimen that earned a "full bands" designation, both sides feature an incomparably sharp strike.

There appears to be a bit of fascinating history for the certification of this specific 1916-D as well. It was once certified before 2010 in Ex-PCGS blue-label holder 4907.64/06629787, and at some point along the way, that slab garnered a CAC sticker. But the CAC website currently states "This cert# is no longer active and is not included in the current CAC Pop report.". The new PCGS slab (relatively speaking -- it is still blue-label generation) bears SN 25582302, but it has no sticker. Not only does this coin possess outstanding technical merit, but the aqua and sea-green accents on the rim are next to some pleasing ruby-grey peripheral toning that only enhances the charming eye-appeal.

Lot #87 - 14K White Gold Diamond Pendant with an Opal, SGL 230831F-SJ
Hammer: $1,000
Jewelry-Pendants
A stunning pendant with an 18.4x11.12x3.47mm Type I, light pear-shaped cabochon opal, Stone Group Laboratories report #230831F-SJ, encompassed by individually four-prong set round brilliant diamonds weighing approximately 1.50 cttw, SI1-2 clarity, I color. (The lab who evaluated this opal did make mention that there is webbing, which can be seen under certain lights, which is natural opaque veining and should not be confused with crazing.) The pendant is attached to a 1.5mm 14K white gold link chain. Length 20”, 4.9 dwt.
