Lot #279 - 2019-S Enhanced Reverse Proof 1oz American Silver Eagle PCGS PR-70 First Strike w/ COA# 07561
Collector Lots-Modern Issues
Encapsulation of both the coin and original government COA show matching serial numbers. PCGS considers numismatic quality to reach perfection, and even the closest inspection can find no discernible reason to disagree. Remarkably, between them, the two major grading services suggest PR-70 to actually be substantially more common than coins graded "only" PR-69 or lower.

Lot #126 - 1863 $10 Fr# 95 - PMG AU-58/small tear
Hammer: $7,500
US Currency-Legal Tender Notes, Large
Often found cut a little askew, this particularly bright example has been almost ideally centered and squared properly when viewed from either side, which means the back of the note is as appealing as the front. Signatures were stamped a little high but are as bold and deep black as can be. A "small tear" as called out by PMG only just barely requires mention because it technically touches a portion of the design (the border line) else it would escape notice. Not mentioned is a tiny dab of greenish residue positioned below the offending "tear" -- the cataloger speculates a staple may have been professionally removed from the edge at some point.
