Stamps Auction House Recommendation

I have about 50-100 nice early pieces, Mint, F-XF, some OG or OG hinged. Ranging from pictorials through Scotts 500 or so, plus a baby zep and c1-c4. I am interested in selling the group and am leaning toward putting it up for auction, but open to suggestions. It's quality stuff in the up to $500 range. What auction houses would you suggest? I have my way of doing things, but how would you set reserves?

Thanks,

Steve

  • Donate the stamps to charity and take a tax deduction! (seriously!)
  • While this doesn't sound like the type of material that would excite any of the "Big Three" (Siegel's, Shreve or Bennett) there are several quality second tier houses that you might try contacting. These include Schuyler Rumsey (415-351-2124), Nutmeg (203-792-3862), Harmer-Schau (707-778-6454) or Ivy & Manning (973-882-0887).
    Hope this helps.
