Bowers and Merena auction session 1 posted on line

link I had been eagerly awaiting to see the images of the Klinginsmith Lincolns. Also the Nevadaman nickels (not because I want any, just curious what they looked like!).

    Thanks for the heads up and link, also what are your thoughts on the quality of their images?

    Ha!!!

    I am watching Steves auction closely, and after having seen some of their pics of his Jeffs, I'm surprised any of them have bids!

    Just kidding about the bids, but not about the pics! They suck bigtime! When are these supposedly major auction houses going to start doing the consignor AND themselves favors with decent pics? No better then Heritage and maybe worse! Too much reliance on the slab insert and verbal description to foster bids is third rate for either of them.

    Absolutely no excuse or reason would be acceptable if they were mine!
    Everything starts and everything stops at precisely the right time for precisely the right reason.
  • They sure have a big selection of Proof IHC.
    I just wish I could afford some.

    The pics on the bust/seated material aren't all that impressive either.
    I see a number of dealer "old friend" coins in the type area that look very familiar.
