Lot #502 - 1857-S Spiked Shield S.S. Central America with gold dust PCGS MS-65+
Gold $20-Liberty Head Double Eagle
Ex-S.S. Central America, "spiked shield" reverse. 9 graded MS-65+, 17 higher at PCGS. The enormous PCGS slab also contains a pinch of "California gold dust" although the encapsulated particles are irritatingly difficult to appreciate through the curiously frosted viewing panel. What is easy to appreciate is the exceptional quality of the 1857-S double-eagle, which appears fully MS-66 to the cataloger's eye. Outrageous, very-bright pale luster predominates over the impressively detailed motifs that suffer merely trivial little bagmarks. Upgrade may be denied by PCGS due to faint, shiny sliding abrasions left and below the chin but otherwise, the surface hardly looks like something which spent more than a century within the salty waters of the Atlantic.

Lot #779 - 1884 NGC PR-65 CAMEO
Hammer: $1,150
Dimes-Liberty Seated
13 graded PR-65 CAM, 1 graded PR-65 CAM "star", 47 higher at NGC. Bone white and struck with the extreme precision one expects. A low mintage of 875 pieces seems to have survived in poor quantities are gem-and-better examples are difficult to locate. Outstanding mirrors here might have been impetus for an ULTRA designation but the contrast is not as vivid as seen for true early strikes.

Lot #312 - Native American Unsigned Bracelet
Hammer: $270
Jewelry-Silver
Sterling silver (tested, not marked) cuff bracelet in an overly bold design. With stampings to both sides of the piece, the cuff features a center applied leaf surrounded by four cabs of turquoise that appear to be from three different mines. An unsigned piece, so tribal affiliation is unknown. The original price tag remains to the underside of the piece. 5.86 troy ounces.
