A charming ancient coin with one side depicting Taras riding dolphin, the other side with rider on a horse. In Greek mythology, Taras was the son of Poseidon and Satyrion, and when Taras was shipwrecked he was rescued by a dolphin sent by his father which he rode to shore. The modern Italian city of Taranto is named for Taras, and to this day Taranto's city flag and coat of arms both prominently depict an image of Taras riding dolphin very much in keeping with the depiction on this 2300+ year old coin.

US Braided Hair half cent, 1843 Original Proof, PCGS PR66RD CAM grade; please note the initial two photos with this lot are PCGS Trueview images, images courtesy of Professional Coin Grading Service (PCGS.com). From the estate of noted early American copper collector William Foster Lardner (born 1873, died 1934), and truly fresh to market having not been seen by the numismatic community for the past 90 years. An absolutely mind-blowing coin, with a shockingly bold and vibrant red color and luster that in its intensity we believe may be wholly unique among the entire surviving population of US half cents. Our experience of first seeing this coin among the Lardner estate is one we will never forget, as we peered inside its wax paper envelope to be greeted by a level of red brilliance unlike anything we have ever encountered among pre-1850 American copper. PCGS population reports indicate that in total only five proof half cents across all dates have been rated as red cameo; the present example is numerically the sole finest graded red cameo of its date, and is numerically tied with a single 1842 example as the finest graded red cameos of the entire half cent series. Stepping beyond the numeric grade, we believe in terms of vibrancy of its red color the present piece very likely stands in a class of its own apart from any other proof half cent in existence. One hundred eighty-one years into its history, this coin has led a miraculously charmed life and we are pleased and honored to offer the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own this piece.

A seldom seen Longines complication, on first glance this watch has an appearance similar to a typical split-seconds chronograph but its actual function is quite different as both sweep hands return to zero upon depression of the button at 1:30, and immediately start recording upon release of the button; a feature very useful to pilots, bombardiers and other military specialists. With its combination of superb condition and original accessory items, the present watch is an exceptional example of this Longines rarity. CONDITION: Mvt: Running, good instantaneous chronograph function, few small spots to perimeter of escape wheel bridge, small fine scratch to perimeter of center sweep bridge; case shows hardly any wear, few mild small mars and short scratches adjacent opening positions of bezel and rear, some scattered tiny nicks, no dents; tight bow, crown shows hardly any wear; good glass crystal; hangtag shows light wear, crease to one corner; cloth pouch shows light wear.

APW - Elgin, personal watch of Elgin Watch Co. assembling department foreman Frank M. Wills, unique highly engraved and ornamented top grade mvt with winding indicator, 64 jewel (31 jewels are functional or semi-functional, 33 jewels are entirely cosmetic), 18S, gold-filled OF display recase, cream colored enamel triple-sunk dial with all markings in royal blue, hour and minute hands with inset jewels, seconds-hand with a jewel set over its hub, fully capped lever escapement, diamond cap jeweling to balance, escapement, and train, jeweled barrel arbor with blue sapphire cap jewel, cabochon rubies set around winding wheel perimeters, cosmetic cap jeweling over plate screws and balance cock screw, several additional purely cosmetic jewels including one set within counterpoise of lever, ornately engraved and pierced gilt plates and balance cock, no visible serial number. A truly unique and mind blowing piece with a movement aesthetic that is worlds apart from anything we have ever encountered among American horology. Some of the delightfully over-the-top detail that this cataloger particularly appreciates are the transparent red ruby cabochon "windows" through the ratchet wheel, the presence of a red ruby set within the counterpoise of the lever that skips back and forth as the watch runs, and the presence of magnificent ornate engraving detail to the visible portion of the dial plate below the train wheels. Frank M. Wills (1857-1928) was foreman of Elgin Watch Co.'s assembling department, and please see our final photo for an entry listing this position that is found in the December 4th, 1908 issue of the periodical Weekly Rogue River Courier of Grant's Pass, Oregon. The present watch represents the ultimate "show off" piece for an individual in Wills' position to demonstrate the finish and artistry that his firm was capable of producing. CONDITION: Mvt: Running, good winding indicator function, nearly mint cosmetic mvt condition overall, bright lustrous surfaces, perimeter of winding wheel with a spot of oxide in space between two of the cabochon rubies and a few small bits of oxide to teeth, one cosmetic jewel on train bridge is a replacement with brass setting; dial with outer chapter hl above winding indicator register, below seconds-register, hl to right side of winding indicator register, tiny flakes at center of winding indicator register; excellent hands, seconds-hand plum colored, other hands are blue; case shows light wear, no dents or dings, some areas of wear to brass to bezels, band, and pendant; tight bow, crown shows medium wear; good glass crystals.

An attractive early example of a top grade Waltham Presidential presentation watch, this piece was presented during the term of U.S. President Andrew Johnson. Please see our final photo with the lot for a small entry in the April 1st, 1867 issue of "The Charleston Daily News" of Charleston, South Carolina which notes that the Bark Toscano (sic) was reported to have been abandoned at sea and that the ship "was 660 tons register, and built at Bath, ME in 1865." In all, a terrific piece of maritime and Waltham Watch Co. history. CONDITION: Mvt: Running, excellent-plus cosmetic mvt condition overall, good gilt tone, plates with some bits of mild haze in areas and few scattered small spots, two short scratches to inner edge of main plate near center, few micro-fine scratches elsewhere; dial with hl from 10 to center, mild light surface mark inside 4; excellent hands; case with evident past repair to front lid near hinge area with solder excess internally and with some evident repaired fine surface splits of planchet seam and adjacent area apparent, case shows light to medium wear, cuvette with numerous fine to micro-fine scratches from past key slips, upper-left rear shoulder with small ding, few mild small nicks elsewhere, front and rear images with good engraving detail, reduced engine turning detail with full loss throughout rear shoulder and throughout majority of front shoulder, front with enamel nearly fully intact to scene though with ample enamel losses to surrounding circular borders, rear enamel with enamel largely intact to Presidential Seal though with greater losses to surrounding circular borders, case front lift spring needs a bit of assistance to open lid and is not contacting lid to its fully opened position allowing lid to tip back a small bit toward closed with gravity; tight bow, push is a replacement of somewhat differing tone relative to case and of differing appearance than the original would have been; good glass crystal. Chain and key show medium to ample wear, replacement gold-filled spring-ring with portions of wear to brass.

APW - G.P. Reed, Boston, with 52 hour winding indicator, approximately 19S (45.7mm dial diameter), 10K gold (tested) OF recase, gold cuvette, white enamel DS dial, transitional style SW-LS with retained KWKS arbors, fully capped lever escapement, likely 19J, gilt mvt, s#771. Gross weight of assembled watch 73.7 dwt (114.7 g). A rare example of this independent maker's work, based on known examples it is believed that G.P. Reed produced somewhere between 350 and 400 watches in total. This particular example interestingly has a serial number that is significantly higher than the typical serial range of G.P. Reed products we have encountered. George P. Reed's production is notable among American horology for including a number of watches with interesting complications such as winding indicator display, spring detent escapements, and calendar watches. CONDITION: Mvt: Ticking upon winding but mainspring with an audible slip and release of tension before full winding is achieved, stemwinding mechanism engaging fairly well when turned only in forward direction but tends to disengage if crown is turned in reverse direction for winding coast, setting mechanism with occasional slippage and setting lever is very stiff to pull out to setting position, winding indicator hand advancing upon winding, overhaul needed, fine-plus cosmetic mvt condition overall, fine scratch to perimeter of main plate extending from near left side plate screw to area above "No" marking of s#, areas of oxide to steelwork; dial with a bit of play to mvt and we have not disassembled to inspect possible cause of this, dial with two hls at 3, perimeter hl at 1, short hl to upper perimeter of winding indicator register, short fine scratch to perimeter at 2:30; excellent hands with some scattered bits of oxide and finish loss; case with split and separation of rear planchet around its upper portion and with evident past repair(s) of planchet, case shows light wear, scattered fine scratches, few soft dings to rear, front and rear hinges each missing an end-cap; tight brassy gold-filled replacement bow, crown shows medium wear with ridge break; good glass crystal.

Gross weight of assembled watch 86.8 dwt (135.0 g). A beautiful and iconic movement design that was made for the American market to celebrate the date of America's independence; Henry O. Stauffer was granted U.S. design patent D12926 on May 9th, 1882 for this unique movement style. These watches are notably rare in original gold casing and this is the first original cased example our firm has had the pleasure to handle. Although of Swiss manufacture, we have chosen to present this piece among this auction's American pocket watch category due to its essence as being a product specifically aimed to the American market. CONDITION: Mvt: Ticking sluggishly, overhaul recommended, excellent cosmetic mvt condition overall, some scattered small spots and micro-fine scratches; virtually flawless dial with few micro-fine scratches; nearly mint hands; case originally was with a glazed mvt observation cover which is no longer present, case shows little wear, scattered dings and nicks; tight bow, crown shows light wear; clean plastic front crystal, mvt observation crystal and its bezel are missing.

(likely Gigon & Seydel, Philadelphia) HC with beautiful engine turning and engraving detail including a lakeside home and sailboat scene to rear, gold cuvette engaved "Presented to James Webb by William Wilkens 1868" and with an additional engraving of "To James F. Webb by his father Jas. Webb Mar. 7, 1908," white enamel dial, KWKS, diamond endstone, gilt mvt, s#2737 with matching serial number within case. Gross weight of assembled watch 79.5 dwt (123.6 g). A historically important early American watch; the "Dennison, Howard & Davis" grade was produced by Waltham's predecessor the Boston Watch Co. between approximately 1854 and 1857. These watches were by far most often cased in silver so original gold casing is scarce to rare, but the most notable rarity of this particular example is found in its matching movement and case serial numbers which is extremely rare among Dennison, Howard & Davis production. CONDITION: Mvt: Running, fine cosmetic mvt condition overall, some dark surface spots with the most notable being after serial # and at the base of "D" of "Davis," some uneven haze to gilt tone; dial with very faint hl near 1:30, edge flaking between 4 and 4:30 which reaches to minute chapter in two small areas, tiny edge nick at 1:30; fine hands, hour and minute are blue and have some mild bends, hour missing a small bit of its fleur-de-lis portion, seconds-hand is plum colored; case with broken lift spring which only initiates lid off its latch but allows lid to fall opened and closed freely with gravity through the remainder of its range of motion, case shows little wear, mild ding to upper-right perimeter of front, crease type dent or ding to lower-left of rear with corresponding ding to cuvette, prominent crease-type ding to upper-left shoulder of rear with smaller crease-type ding to its left, few additional lesser crease type dings around upper areas of rear shoulder, good overall engine turning and engraving detail though with reduction at shoulders; tight bow, push shows light wear; good glass crystal.

Gross weight of assembled watch 75.3 dwt (117.1 g). The vibrating hairspring stud of this example is a scarce and notable feature that was intended to improve isochronal properties of the hairspring, and this feature is only found among a small fraction of the "American Watch Co." and "Appleton, Tracy & Co." grade production in Models 1860 and 1862. This movement is from a production run listed in factory records as having been completed between September, 1864 and February, 1865. The retail partnership of Browne & Spaulding was active in New York City between approximately 1865 and 1869. From the collection of Ethan Lipsig.

A notably beautiful high grade presentation piece with an interesting Alaskan gold mining provenance. Mark Lindsey Tatom was born in Oregon in 1866 and later moved to Alaska where in 1901 he became foreman of the Mexican Mine which was a portion of the Treadwell gold mining complex on the south side of Douglas Island near Juneau, Alaska. At the time, the Treadwell gold mine was the largest hard rock gold mine in the world as Treadwell's mines extracted over three million ounces of gold between 1881 and 1922. Please see our photos with this lot for images of article entries in the September 4th, 1907 and the September 11th, 1907 issues of the "Douglas Island News" which announce Tatom's retirement and also the presentation of this "handsome gold watch" by the employees of the Mexican Mine.

An excellent example of this very rare watch. From examples we have observed, this Riverside Maximus winding indicator with circular pattern damascene appears to have had a total production of only 200 made with all examples found in a single run spanning serial numbers 23100001 to 23100200. This particular example has the added distinction of being from the very early portion of this run, being the third made by serial number.

Gross weight of assembled watch 81.4 dwt (126.5 g).

Hulburd ranged between $300 and $750 depending on case material and on style of case and dial. According to the consignor: "I bought this watch from a woman who told me that 'This watch belonged to my grandfather Fred C. Kelly. He was a writer who was the first nationally syndicated columnist. He wrote many books on such subjects as the stock market, raising dogs and fellow Ohio humorists. He was most recognized for editing the autobiography of the Wright Brothers, Miracle at Kitty Hawk, which I believe is still being published. He was great friends with Orville Wright and is credited for bringing the Wright Brothers plane to the Smithsonian. My father just passed away at age 98 and he claimed to be the last living person to shake hands with Orville Wright.'" From the collection of Ethan Lipsig.

The Aviation Section of the Signal Corps was founded in 1914 and was the second iteration of the United States version of an Air Force. They first saw action against Pancho Villa during the Mexican Expedition when Villa attacked Columbus, New Mexico. The entire squadron consisted of 8 Curtis JN-4 "Jenny's" at the time and only 11 pilots. With the entire Aviation Section only consisting of 44 active duty officers, this was soon to change with the breakout of World War 1 with the inevitable expansion that ended 33 years later in the formation of the United States Air Force. Truly a must-have piece for the early military collector or the Chelsea collector who just doesn't have "everything."

Edward Orton, Jr. was an interesting character who was involved with the Motor Transport Corps in its early history but per Wikipedia was also notable as an "academic administrator, businessman, ceramic engineer, geologist, and philanthropist." The Wikipedia page regarding Edward Orton, Jr. can be viewed at this link - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_Orton_Jr. - and a more detailed biography can be found at this link - https://kb.osu.edu/server/api/core/bitstreams/19dc2d5d-c87d-5904-8b89-f51288fec57a/content CONDITION: Mvt: Running, excellent cosmetic mvt condition overall, some toning of plate surfaces, few mild small surface spots and few scattered short fine to micro-fine scratches, some scattered very small bits of oxide to steelwork; dial with small edge chip under bezel at 9, small hl under bezel at 10, pinpoint surface nick to upper perimeter of center section; excellent hour hand and seconds-hand, poor minute hand is missing its tip and has a mild bend near its mid-point; case shows little wear, scattered dents to band causing flat spots with the largest and most notable of these at 4, ding to lower shoulder of rear, good engraving detail; tight bow, crown shows medium wear; glass crystal with scattered scratches and nicks.

APW - Hamilton, Grade 3992B, World War II era Navigation Master Watch made for Canadian military use, 22J, 16S, .800 silver OF original case with C.H.S. 3 (Canadian Hydrographic Services class 3 designation), Canadian Ministry of Defence (English spelling) pheon and s# stamped to rear, white enamel dial with Canadian market 13 to 24 hour numerals, dial also with paper serial number label glued to its surface, SW-hack-set with sweep-seconds, fully capped lever escapement, mono-metallic balance with Elinvar hairspring, mvt marked "U.S. Gov't," striped pattern nickel damascene, mvt s#3C2283 with matching serial number stamped to case rear as well as marked to dial label. A scarce watch, only a small fraction of 3992B production was made for the Canadian military use as the majority of these watches were made for the British military.

EPW - Wittnauer, Swiss, possible prototype of military Type 5742-1 chronograph with 30-minute register, 50.5mm, chrome-plated base metal OF original Wittnauer case with contract markings to rear, knurled edges to bezel and rear, metal dial, SW-SS, lever escapement, 18J, wheel satin nickel finish, s#358658 with matching serial number marked to case rear. A rare piece that is the only example of this type we have encountered by Wittnauer, we note that the rear of this watch's case is blank in the space following the "Contract No." marking. We interpret this as likely suggesting the present watch was a trial or prototype piece Wittnauer supplied to compete for the U.S. military's contract for the Type 5742-1 "Navigational Stop Watch" but to our knowledge no regular production from Wittnauer was ultimately contracted for this 5742-1 design. In contrast, a sizable production of the Type 5742-1 for U.S. military service was instead provided by Hamilton, Breitling, and Breitling-Wakmann. In all, a very intriguing and attractive piece for the military collector that wants something truly unusual in their collection. CONDITION: Mvt: Running, good chronograph and minute register function, nearly mint cosmetic mvt condition overall, some scattered small micro-fine scratches and mild surface spots; dial with rectangular strip of what appears to be glue or shellac neatly over portion of signature area between "I" and "E" in "WITTNAUER," otherwise nearly flawless; excellent hands with some minor areas of paint loss and some small areas of paint touch-up; case shows virtually no wear, scattered fine scratches and abrasions to rear from handling, no dents or dings, superb contract marking detail, circular rear finish is fully intact; tight bow, crown shows hardly any wear; good glass crystal.

The Merimont Watch Co. name was first registered in 1917 in Geneva, then registered under American Watch Case Co of New York in 1918, and finally registered under Vacheron & Constantin in 1928. An ad in the Jeweler's Circular of May 4, 1921, shows ladies' platinum and diamond bracelet watches, the cases made by American Watch Case Co, and the mvts by Merimont Watch Co, with the byline "Every Merimont Movement enshrines a century and a half of experience," a reference to the beginnings of Vacheron & Constantin in 1775. We believe the present movement's serial number represents a simple addition of a leading "3" digit as prefix to Vacheron & Constantin's typical serial sequence, and this is consistent with other Merimont Watch Co. marked watches we have encountered. From the collection of Ethan Lipsig.

A rare watch; Ball Hampden movements were made with signatures including "Ball's Standard Superior Grade," "Ball's Standard High Grade," and simply "Ball's Standard" and among these the "Ball's Standard High Grade" and "Ball's Standard" seem to be notably rarer than the "Ball's Standard Superior Grade."

An interesting example with a very unusual railroad associated case engraving that we had not seen before; in the early 1930s the firm of Bush-Burnham Co. at 258 Main St, Buffalo, New York advertised themselves as the "Bureau Railroad Watch Inspection."

St. Louis." marked white enamel SS dial, SW-LS, nickel damascene, s#95248. An excellent example of this rare watch. The total production of the Grade 923 was 1000 made but a high majority of these movements were marked as "Imperial Canada" and only a much smaller fraction were signed with one of two other private label movement markings, these two markings being "Standard, St. Louis." for Mermod, Jaccard & Co., and "J.R.

Caesar of Stillwater, Minnesota on November 1st, 1895.

This same fishscale damascene pattern was used by Hamilton for their 21 jewel Grade 994 movement, but this damascene is rarely encountered among Hamilton's other 16 size grades having been only used among small quantities of special order movements. The present movement is listed in the Hamilton factory ledger as having been sold to Burr W. Freer of San Francisco on September 6th, 1910, and this watch is from a group of 100 consecutive serial numbers (783701 to 783800) that are listed as being sold to Freer between August and October of 1910.

CONDITION: Mvt: Running, excellent cosmetic mvt condition overall, some scattered small fine to micro-fine scratches and pinpoint surface nicks, few small mild bits of oxide to regulator assembly, case screws are mismatched; dial virtually flawless in visible portion while bezel is in-place with only a micro-fine scratch between 9 and 10, removing bezel reveals a patched edge chip at setting lever area; nearly mint hands; case shows light wear, short scratches to rear of band at 8, some scattered small nicks; tight bow, crown shows little wear; good glass crystals.

A very rare dial marking, we have only seen a small handful of other Hampden Pennsylvania Special dials. Interestingly the single other example our firm has handled was also on a 17 jewel two-tone factory marked movement, its movement was marked differently but was from relatively close serial number of 2354381 and its images can be viewed at this link - https://www.archive.jones-horan.com/?auction=All&searchfor=s%232354381&sort_by=date&show_thumbnails=true&limitnbr=250&Submit=Search CONDITION: Mvt: Running, excellent cosmetic mvt condition overall, good two-tone color, main plate with ultra-fine scratch striations from a past wiping, few scattered small surface spots and marks; dial with some scattered very faint hls; excellent hands; case shows medium wear, ding to bezel at 3, small bow impressions to upper perimeter of bezel and rear, reduced engine turning detail with full loss at rear shoulder, thin strips of wear to brass around raised ridges of bezel and rear perimeter, spot of wear to brass to reverse of pendant below crown; tight bow, replacement crown shows very little wear; good glass crystal.

Ball, Cleveland, O." marked white enamel SS dial, umbrella-style hands, SW-SS, nickel damascene, s#301529. Gross weight of assembled watch 93.7 dwt (145.7 g). This watch is highlighted by its scarce Ball marked dial which exhibits some style elements typical of the work of Josiah Moorhouse, but is not signed as such as the reverse of the dial is marked only with the initials "JE" which is not familiar to us. CONDITION: Mvt: NR, fully wound, balance will tick a few moments after a twist, setting mechanism not engaging, overhaul needed, excellent cosmetic mvt condition overall, scattered micro-fine scratches, one balance jewel setting screw is a non-blued replacement; dial with two hls at 5, reverse of dial with abrasion causing finish loss around center; excellent hands, hour with mild bend, minute with oxide to portion of its tip; case front not releasing from its latch when crown is depressed so currently must be snapped open and closed, overhaul recommended for this case issue, case shows ample wear, some dings and nicks to band, majority of rear engine turning detail fully lost with only small portions lightly remaining around center; tight bow, crown shows ample wear with ridge break; good glass crystal.

Gross weight of assembled watch 36.1 dwt (56.1 g). The Illini is notably rare in this 23 jewel version with only 200 total examples produced.

Macy & Co and with engraving detail of "Guaranteed for the Lifetime of Henry W. Lyman," metal dial, SW-SS, fully capped lever escapement, jeweled barrel arbor, wheel satin nickel finish, s#4759523. Gross weight of assembled watch 43.3 dwt (67.3 g). A rare top-grade private label men's dress watch with an interesting history; "The Lifetime Series" watches were retailed by R.H. Macy & Co. and these watches were "guaranteed" for the lifetime of their owners. Per the excellent information at the previously active www.illinoiswatchguide.com website (this site unfortunately no longer displaying, but archived versions of it can still be viewed through the www.webarchive.org utility), it is believed that total production of this Grade 410 "Lifetime Series" was approximately 200 made. According to the consignor: "I believe I have found the right Henry W. Lyman. He appears to have grown up in Greenfield, Massachusetts and to have studied fine arts and law at Yale in the 1896-99 period without receiving a degree. He appears to have married Viola Elizabeth Lingenfelter in 1915 (when he would likely have been in his mid-30s). The Lymans moved to Enterprise in eastern Oregon in 1923. Henry died in 1948, when he likely would have been in his early 70s." From the collection of Ethan Lipsig.

Watch comes with a matching 9-inch chain comprised of gutta percha links with gold or gold-filled wraps, T-bar with gold or gold-filled accents, and a gold-filled swivel. Gutta percha (a rubber type material) clad American-made cases such as this are quite rare to find in good condition. We had the pleasure of handling the present watch previously in 2019 and at that time described it as the finest example we have encountered, and this opinion remains unchanged at present. This example notably has the added charm of its matching dark chocolate colored gutta percha chain. The lids of this case are marked with the patent dates of April 25th, 1865 and August 18th, 1868 (as well as a re-issue date of May 17th, 1870). The 1865 date is for Dubois D. Parmalee's U.S. patent number 48992 which specifies the process of transforming gutta percha into a hardened but flexible consistency, and the 1868 date is for William H. Halsey's U.S. patent number 81082 for "molding watch cases and lockets from hard rubber." CONDITION: Mvt: Running, nearly mint cosmetic mvt condition overall, good gilt tone, few mild small spots to left portion of barrel bridge; excellent dial with only small edge flaking outside minute chapter under bezel near 4 and few micro-fine scratches at signature area; excellent hands, minute with some finish loss to spade and tip; case shows hardly any wear, gutta percha surface is fully present having just two small indentations in the perimeter of the front lid with one at lower-right and the other at left just below center level, a few mild fine scratches; tight bow, push shows light wear; good glass crystal; chain is excellent though we note that its T-bar position has been changed since we last handled it and that it now has gold or gold-filled wraps around all links where three were missing in 2019.
