Lot #840 - 1916-D Mercury PCGS AU-53
Dimes-Mercury
Even to a specialized collector who does not dabble at all in Mercury dimes, the 1916-D requires no introduction, since it has never had challengers for key-date status (ignoring esoteric "grade rarity" discussions) and is famous on multiple levels. The surface of this AU-53 example genuinely has the lustrous quality of an AU-55 coin, and without question, pewter-tan patina draping over the surface appears to be fully original. Therefore, one must probe other aspects of the grading process to figure out why a choice grade wasn't in play. Closer inspection reveals delicate, fluttering hairlines in the obverse right field, and additional superficial hairlining on the portrait, as well as similar activity within the reverse fields. Fortunately, long placement within a correct numismatic environment has permitted the surface to an antiqued appearance that so many enthusiasts covet, and absolutely nowhere can one locate even the tiniest abrasion.

Lot #751 - 1818/5 NGC MS-63
Hammer: $4,000
Quarter Dollars-Capped Bust
Robert Michaels Collection. Browning-1. One of the most outrageous coins to exist is the Newman example of this same die-marriage graded NGC MS-67 "star"... but it likely costs a third of a million dollars today. For everyone else, there are nicer choice UNC examples like the present salmon-grey specimen also certified by NGC. The surface seems immaculate -- certainly less bagmarked than one expects of the grade while an impressive strike brings up all of the stars as well as intriguing clash marks strewn into the fields. Minimal planchet striations over the lower bust are likely adjustment marks but they were mostly ironed out by the excellent strike. In this die state, all that remains visible of the underdigit is a small diagonal in the upper loop of "8" and a tiny remnant of the vertical part of the flag adhering to the left.

Lot #231 - 18K Yellow Gold Pocket Watch
Hammer: $1,600
Jewelry-Watches
This 18K pocket watch has a beautiful movement marked “E.KOEN, GENEVE, No 77628”. Unfortunately, the chiming mechanism doesn't seem to work. On the inside lid it is engraved “Fr. Stanley Goodwin, Christmas 1891, H.R. EKEGREN GENEVA” and the outside back lid has a fancy monogram of “C.H.S.” Winds, sets and runs. 72.9 dwt.
