1907 Liberty Head quarter eagle MS-64 Star, and a 1907-D Liberty Head Eagle MS-63, both NGC

Lot Title:	1907 Liberty Head quarter eagle MS-64 Star, and a 1907-D Liberty Head Eagle MS-63, both NGC
Lot Number:	656
Description:	The F. Raphael Collection. The cataloger rarely disputes NGC's "star", which intends to denote a coin with exceptional eye-appeal within a certain grade, but what would be interesting would be to know exactly what inspired the designation for the 1907 quarter-eagle. It is an incredibly well-struck coin and the dies were absolutely fresh, as the retain extensive die polish, so it remains to be seen whether bidders will find as much appeal in such an early die-state product. The 1907-D eagle is about typical for MS-63, featuring trivial hairlines and rather problem-free surface quality for the grade. Two coin lot.

This lot may contain an item not certified by ANACS, PCGS, or NGC. While Scotsman Auction Co. is typically conservative in our descriptions of items not certified by one of these companies, we cannot guarantee our grading estimation will match their grade. We highly recommend that collectors seeking items certified by a third-party grading service only bid on items that have already been certified. No lot can be returned because of a variance in judgment with regards to grade.
