S-B ANA Auction

I have received two small print auction catalogues from S-B showing many gold coins. As of the other day the website seemed to show only the same gold coins going to auction.

Is this all S-B will be auctioning off in Rosemont?? I expected a much larger sale covering the whole range of (at least) US coins.

Anyone know what is going on??

    Stacks Bowers had some very cool "Americana" type stuff last year, and I'm expecting another good selection this year. Plus they always have some really nice traditional collector U.S. coins too.

    This is correct. There was an insert saying the other catalogs will be mailed out soon.

    Received two SB catalogs, one for the Gilded Age $20 collection, the other for the Ferrendelli early gold varieties.

    Two very different collections, I am having trouble deciding which catalog is more interesting to read.

    The Gilded Age collector tried to get as many different Unc $20s as possible. Most of the coins are MS61 or MS62.

    OTOH, the Ferrendelli cabinet is definitive on early quarter eagle varieties.

    August ANA auction
    Just because I'm old doesn't mean I don't love to look at a pretty bust.

    I enjoyed looking through the Gilded Age $20 Lib collection catalog, especially reading the interesting commentary for each date and mint. While it true that all of the coins are in the lower mint state grades, many of the Type 1 and 2 examples are within the Condition Census for the issue, many early dates just don’t come any nicer. Some of the early coins are pedigreed to Bass, Pittman, Browning (Dallas Bank Collection) or the various shipwrecks. I find the mix of coins interesting in that some of the common date Type 3s seem out of place among coins like a 1854-S MS64 or 1871 in MS63. Overall, I thought the consignor selected coins that had good eye appeal, especially for the grade.

    I agree. Ed is silly.
