Upcoming Events: Consign Your World Coins to The Only Official Auction of the World’s Fair of Money


By Greg Cohen, Professional Numismatist and Consignment Director, U.S. and World Coins. 

For the third straight year, Stack’s Bowers Galleries has the honor of being the official auctioneer of the American Numismatic Association’s World’s Fair of Money. Arguably the most important numismatic convention of the year, the summer ANA draws thousands of collectors and dealers from around the world for a week of auction activity, a large bourse, as well as educational displays and seminars, club meetings, and other opportunities to enjoy our great hobby.

As the official auctioneer, Stack’s Bowers Galleries will present a wide array of coins, medals, tokens and currency from the United States, and Stack’s Bowers and Ponterio will present a wonderful auction of coins and paper money of the world, from the ancient to the modern era. We are inviting consignments to this dynamic event until May 10.

We already have some great consignments on hand for this event, which are in the process of being graded, photographed, and cataloged. Your consignment will join these fabulous items. Among the highlights already consigned are:

1936 Olympics medal in the original case

1826 Russian Coronation Jeton in gold

Brazil. 20,000 Reis, 1726-M MS-63 (NGC)

Brazil. 4,000 Reis, 1719-B MS-62 (NGC)

A fresh to market collection of high grade Brazilian gold coins that are currently being graded.

Great Britain. Pound, 1642 Oxford

Russia.  3 Ruble, 1884.

Whether you are interested in consigning an entire collection assembled over a lifetime, duplicates from your collection, or individual rarities, there is still ample time to put your rare world and ancient coins and paper money in our official ANA sale. Contact one of our consignment directors as soon as possible to discuss your holdings and this opportunity to market your coins to the largest audience of active buyers. The market for world and ancient coins is robust, and now is a great time to sell. We look forward to working with you!
