Update as of August 2026:
Nine pieces of the 27-piece consignment went to new homes. A good start, although I had hoped that some of the watched items would have had bidders. I updated the consignment list as it shown a couple of posts below. I hope that the relisted items will do as well the second time around.
Update as of July 2026:
The coins that were being held are on hold no longer as the collector decided not to proceed beyond the coins already purchased. About half of the Great Collections consignment sold and the remainder are languishing there with an already-reduced price. Eventually I will retrieve them and then they will go to Heritage. Round two, consisting mainly of Canadian fifty cents (Edward VII, George V & George VI) and a Newfoundland half are being delivered to Great Collections at the FUN Show next week.
Many thanks to the collector who was doing the holds for his purchases and to anyone here who purchased a coin via Great Collections. I was able to raise sufficient funds to purchase some much-needed camera gear. Tariffs jacked up the cost of the zoom lens, that I was originally wanting to buy, beyond the realm of affordability so I went in a satisfactory different direction. Thanks a lot President Trump - all due sarcasm intended....

Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
Thanks! I am expecting some good activity on some of the pieces. Others, not so much but the chips will fall where they may.
