Hi,
Just received the catalog for the Dec. 1 Classics Sale. Pretty spectacular, from paper to patterns to classic coinage.
I have no connection to ANR, just thought this might be of general interest. Auction lots are at:
anrcoins.com
Enjoy,
-Brian

Did you catch that about the Garrett pedigree? I like the way ANR handled that.
Seriously, has anyone checked all of the Garrett sales to confirm this? Maybe it was in the 1976 Stacks sale?

Hi all:
I wrote this coin up for the ANR sale. There were two VERY similar Oak Tree twopences in the 2002 Hain sale of Massachusetts Silver -- the Garrett coin and this coin, which were offered in consecutive lots. This is undoubtedly the cause of the label confusion.
I did not intend it to be a slap in the face, just a truthful reflection of what the coin is. This catalogue will be around long after we're all dead and gone, so why not take a chance to correct the record rather than let people wonder why you didn't?
No matter what the provenance, it's a great coin.
Thanks for the nice compliments on the sale -- we appreciate the kind words and the support.

The description is accurate and critical, in the sense of critical analysis. It is not mean spirited or a "slap in the face." There is a big difference, and I appreciate it when writers are accurate and critical in the sense first described.
Great catalogue!
