1904 Liberty half-eagle, and a 1908 Indian half-eagle, both PCGS MS-60 (green label)

Lot Title:	1904 Liberty half-eagle, and a 1908 Indian half-eagle, both PCGS MS-60 (green label)
Lot Number:	333
Description:	Moderate abrasions in high number undoubtedly account for the MS-60 grade assigned each, but at least PCGS knew to use that grade way back when - how come no one ever uses the basal mint-state grade anymore? 1908 shows wheat-gold patina with butterscotch accents, while 1904 features strong detail and rather attractive royal gold patina. Two coin lot.
Estimate:	$675-$800

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.
