Private treaty sales

According to Todd Imhoff, they happen all the time and never get reported.

A sale you cannot flag like searching coins thru some auction history. Makes me wonder the coins involved in some of these transactions.

I give away money. I collect money.
I don’t love money . I do love the Lord God.

    Wasn't TDN's 1913 Liberty nickel sold by private treaty a few months ago?

    For some reason the term "treaty" just bothers me. I would like it better if the coin world called it a private contract or a private sale.

    I agree that a lot of BIG coins probably get sold by private sale. I think there is a market out there that most people don't even know about.

    I too wonder about the term 'treaty'.... seems a strange application for the word. Certainly implies agreement, just out of place when used in reference to sales. Cheers, RickO
