By Greg Cohen, Numismatist and Consignment Director
The Stack’s Bowers and Ponterio team has just returned from the CICF show in Rosemont, IL. Manning the table and working collector and dealer clients were Kent Ponterio (Senior Numismatist and Consignment Director of World and Ancient Coins), Nirat Lerchitvikul (Director of Asian Operations), and Greg Cohen (Professional Numismatist and Consignment Director US and World Coins). From the start of the show to the very end, our numismatic trio was busy gathering consignments for our upcoming ANA Auction and our next Hong Kong auction.
We brought with us some numismatic “eye candy” in the form of some significant ANA auction highlights. The most popular among collectors and dealers to look at was a group of superb gem Saxony talers and high-grade and attractive Transylvanian talers from the Demarete Collection. We also brought highlights from other consignments as well and had a wonderful selection of coins from Europe and Latin America.
We met with collectors and dealers alike from Wednesday afternoon (before the show actually began) until the very end on Sunday afternoon, many of whom gave us consignments that range from an individual rarity to extensive selections of rare and interesting world coins and paper money. While the show is now over, there is still ample time to consign your ancient and world coins, medals and paper money to either our ANA auction in Philadelphia or our August Hong Kong auction sale.
The consignment deadlines are May 14 and May 21, respectively. Please contact any of our consignment directors to discuss your collection, and which auction it would be best suited for. The market for rare and interesting world coins is very active right now, let Stack’s Bowers and Ponterio sell your coins at these two wonderful and dynamic events to realize top dollar.
