The November 9, 2013 Coin & Currency Auction was a huge success. Included in this auction were collections from several states including Illinois, Iowa and Texas.
One of the Collectors started educating himself in Numismatics in the 1950s, attending coin shows in the Chicago area. He would sit at his desk many late nights pouring over coin books & magazines, and analyzing his finds. One of his coins was an 1893-s Morgan Dollar, which was laying on top of a box, when I opened it. I submitted the coin to PCGS and received a PCGS XF45 grade. This coin will be in our auction on January 18, 2014. This collector enjoyed all aspects of Numismatics.
