Original GSA order forms.

Several months ago I purchased four original GSA order forms to go along with some of my GSA CC Morgans. I paid $20 each for these and have recently watched these go for three times as much on Ebay. How scarce are these and are they worth collecting?

    Perhaps GSA guy might be able to shed some light on this. Although I would think that they are collectible to the extent that they accompany and compliment an actual numismatic item.

    Also, are these authentic? I have seen mere copies of these forms go on Ebay for $10 or more!!! I am not sure why anyone would want a copy but to each his/her own.

    There are two different ones.
    One for the original auction in the 70's and one for the 80's auction.

    I have both, if you need a pic let me know.

    I have also seen then and some seller do say they are copies not the originals

    LS,

    There are any number of forms advertising the GSA sale. Some are much more common than others. Obviously, because of the number of common date coins sold, those forms are the most commonly encountered.

    Order forms/advertisements for the 79-CC are the most scarce in my opinion......I having seen only a few in the almost 20 years I've been actively buying GSA memorabilia.

    Having said all of the above, $20 each for ORIGINAL forms is not a bad price. You done good Rocky.image

  • Mine were from the early 70's auction and I have no doubt they are original. The guy I bought them from and I are now good friends over this purchase and he sent me a 2 page email on how to know the difference between an original and a copy. No doubt mine are original.
