1927-S Asking $425. PCGS58 CAC. Wonderfully original piece with a better than average strike. Wear is truly minimal on this super slider, with better luster than the image depicts. This one is truly a hair away from MS and the huge price jump entailed with this date/MM. Added character with some die cracks along the obverse rim and on the buffalo's head and minor laminations one obverse rim and center of buffalo.

1925-S Asking $725. PCGS58 CAC. Obverse surfaces much more bright and lustrous than shown in image and suggests you may have stumbled across an MS piece in an AU holder and price. Reverse is a tab bit darker, but still more brilliant than image is able to capture. Obverse fields have neat 'orange peel' effect from being struck from older dies. While strike is mushy compared to Philly dates, it is actually much better than most 25-S pieces on offer, even in MS grades. Another date where prices rocket once you hit MS.

Two prior CAC sales went for $863, with another recent result pushing $1K. This piece is markedly better than any other PCGS auction in the sub $800 range in at least the last five years, with much shaper detail and better luster.
