Didn't happen today so I had to be satisfied with talking with the man himself. And then looking at the highlights on the new website prepared just for this collection. Will be ordering the book with 100 highlights of the collection

Pogue Website

Fantastic Book

TDN - saw the website, got the both books and saw the coins at FUN and Sotheby's in nyc! Awesome coins - the best of the best! Please make it a point to see these coins.

The ones available at FUN were a treat to see. Looking forward to lot preview and the book.

It's dazzling

Either you or legend will want them all

Is the book done, and ready to ship?

Mark · January 29, 2015 12:54PM

TDN:

This is the second book you've touted that I have to buy. Are you getting a commission or something?

Maybe you need to suggest to Laura that she write a book. That would be an interesting read ... for more reasons than one!

There was a copy @ Sotheby's. Had I not been in a rush to go, I might have remembered to ask

Barndog · January 29, 2015 1:08PM

are they going to be on display at the Spring ANA?

Lakesammman · January 29, 2015 1:44PM

I'll never forget Boiler78 and I running into TDN and Pogue a number of years ago at a show table.

There were rare coins everywhere - it was shocking to be handed an 1804 dollar or ex. Garrett proof 1827 25c like they were sample slabs.

You guys make the hobby fun. But it sure is a lofty place up there . Kinda scary.

Mark · January 29, 2015 11:01PM

Lakesammman:

I figure if I ever ran into you at a coin show, I would be handed sample slabs as if they like an 1804 dollar or ex. Garrett proof 1827 25c.

Pretty good crowd jostling for position to see the coins yesterday afternoon, with some lady shoving me out of the way saying she wanted to see the 1804 Dollar.

I personally liked the Chain and Wreath pair in RB.

I am hoping for a special deal on the second book like they offered on the 1822 book.

For those who want to actually look at the 1822 book, they have a copy online (they also have a copy of the second book, but it only includes the first few pages)

TDN had you already seen most or all of these?

Oh so they finally showed up? Grrrrrr

MsMorrisine · January 30, 2015 1:25AM

considering you and legend will likely be in the bidding on a least a few of these, I do not think it improper to ask for an after show viewing appointment

<< The collection was started in the 1970s by D. Brent Pogue with the active participation and encouragement of his father, Dallas real estate developer A. Mack Pogue. >>

Lucky effin kid.
My old man thought I was crazy to be buying BU morgans for 3 bucks, and P/Ls for 5. And all them silly old type coins. FOOLISH was what he said.

Ablinky · January 30, 2015 4:45AM

Thanks for the post, I will be sure to add these references to my library.

he was right, but for the wrong reason. You sold them all and way too cheaply

TDN - They're toying with you. Same as when they decided not to put any early dollars in the first sale. When they finally put the coins in front of you, you'll be putty in their hands.

Mac Pogue is a coin collector.

But none for a loss and they were exchanged for gold at 250-265 and silver from 4.20 -7.00 so not all bad.
