May 12th - Heritage Sale - WoW !

Just got done searching through their upcoming sale. Holy crap is about all I can say. I only looked at things that I'm actively looking for and was stunned to see so many of certain coins.

As I'm putting together an 1853 set; I couldn't believe the number of "D" gold for that year all in one sale (there must be a dozen or so). Likely all too pricey for me right now........ maybe.

They also have some sweet toned commems.

Looks to be a good chance for lots of folks for upgrades and acquistitions.

I might need to go into "sale mode" to raise some funds....... but I don't really want to get rid of anything........ Oh well.

    Yes agree, received the catalog today as well. Very nice stuff, I will be going after two coins.
    If I say something in the woods, and my wife isn't around. Am I still wrong?

    Just got in the catalog but didn't open it yet. I may just have to make a run down there and check it out.

    except for really high grade half eagles, all i see is a bunch of crap.
    dipped out, unoriginal, marked up, parallel line scratches looking like
    an old cleaning, etc...

    the people stepping up to the plate are getting average to blah material
    that just sells by the price guide amount. nothing that stands out.

    i think i shall buy a coin from a person here instead of the auction route.
    i always did like this person's eye for half eagles.

    I end up giving the catalogs away at shows after looking at the great selections.

    Are you referring mostly to "gold"?

    I spent most of my time looking at the Silver Commems. Here's a PRETTY ONE

    EDIT: Ok I admit that my "link" isn't to anything I have on my want list. I keep my list TOP SECRET image

    richard, i am sorry. i think almost everyone here
    knows that the only series i buy is half eagles.

    i do not bother look at anything else when considering
    a purchase...

    every other coin i view is for fun. i collect wheaties from circ though.

    I have 5 coins that I'm tracking and maybe if lucky only have funds enough for one... image
  • When I picked up the box it almost tore my shoulder out of the socket!! Two high quality catalogues + $8.10 for priority mail X however many are on the mailing list = a helluva lot of $$$s on marketing. I suspect they'll be getting a nice return on that investment from me!

    Too many questions?

    If it will make you feel better, I was kicked off their mailing list a couple of years ago.

    After spending a large 5 figure amount from other HA auctions..no catalog .....Hello Bowers AND Stack 's

    if you are registered with them, you can get 1 free catalog

    i requested 1 because of the Porter commems being sold - awesome
  • Does anyone elses catalog arrive looking like it was handled by gorillas?
  • RYKRYK Posts: 35,800 ✭✭✭✭✭
    I look forward to seeing the coins in person on May 10. image

    A huge number of MS68 and 67 commems from one collection. The MS68 NGC coins tend to be extremely original...maybe too so in some cases. In any case I'm sure these will see some strong competition. NGC and PCGS side by side in many cases.

    Was not overly impressed with the 19th century silver type. Though there are a few nice specimens.

    Yep, especially when they try folding those big catalogs and put them in my tiny P.O. Box. image
