    Anyone else not able to get to the site? Must have spent all their money on coins, and forgot the web hosting bill was due.

    The Tyrant's exhibits have been hands down the highlights of the Longbeach shows for me. It's also very useful to see him publish his collection to know which pieces are permanently off the market.

    And, he's still buying: one of those ancients was sold late last year for $600K.

    (Is it impolite to ask who the "Tyrant" is? I won't ask if I shouldn't). ;)

    Was pretty amazed by the middle-eastern gold they had at Long Beach. Not sure I've ever SEEN those coins before, much less ones in that condition....

    I love this, describing the show planned for LB January 2020:

    "All 33 $10 Eagle varieties from 1795 to 1804 will be showcased. All the eagles from 1838 to 1915, including all mint marks, will be exhibited with many of the finest known examples. Proofs of nearly every year from 1857 to 1915 will be displayed alongside their circulation strike counterparts. Other early proof Eagles on exhibit will include 1804, 1838, 1839, and 1846- all legendary rarities."

    Is this Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos amassing this collection under the name Tyrant ?

    Who is this collector ?

    I'm thinking that if you're meant to know, you wouldn't have to ask.
