    Your auction lots, now that Heritage Auctions has issued its promotional materials publicizing the multi-session, multi-day event series, has clearly exceeded my expectations.  The entire effort undertaken with an eye toward errors and oddities appears to be one of a kind.  You may well have achieved the ultimate status: provenanced to the Flynn collection.  I wish you all the best!

    It is so humbling and nice to believe your hard work was worth the time and effort, I know so many today have equally dedicated their lives to helping others in the hobby in their own ways.

    Its a special place in our hobby that we learn and share together.

    Thanks

    Let me put it this way. If every member on this site were to use the US coin forum to advertise, what would it be like here?

     

    I am not buying, selling, or trading coins on this site.  I am simply listing an auction that some collectors might find interesting.  Auction catalogues are listed on this and other sites all the time when there is something interesting therein.

    The other cool thing about this auction is what Heritage did, which was a first, they included a link to each of the die variety sections, which includes all die varieties I documented for those series, this includes series like the Trade Dollars, which I never completed the book.  This provides detailed photographs of everything.

    Heritage spent a great deal of time accomplishing this, I believe this permits them to take plate coins used in a book and connect the two in the auction, plus the collector can see what other varieties are in those series that they might not have known.

    I am selling the majority of my certified die varieties through Heritage Auctions.

    It is a 30 day auction starting 2/2/2024 at https://coins.ha.com/c/search/results.zx?si=2&live_state=5318~5319~5320~5322~5321~5324&dept=1909&auction_name=63270&sb=1&mode=live&page=200~1&layout=list

    There are about 580 lots including doubled dies, repunched mint marks, over mint marks, overdates, clashes, off-denomination clashes, repunched dates, misplaced dates, and others.

    Many of the coins that were the plate coins for books that I have written are included.  Also included are plate coins for other books. 

    A complete cross reference and description is included for each lot.             

    Also included for most of the lots are links to the die variety section of that book the variety was used or listed in.  There is even links to books I have not published, such as the Trade Dollars.

    For the more dramatic varieties, a close up photo is included, of course you can click on the link to see all of the die varieties.

    This includes a ton of Indian Cent, Lincoln Cent, Two Cent, Three Cent Nickel, Liberty Head Nickel, Buffalo Nickel, Barber Dime, Quarter, and Half Dollar, Walking Liberty Half Dollars, Franklin Half Dollars, Kennedy Half Dollars, Liberty Seated, Trade, Morgan Dollar, and gold varieties.  The Morgan Dollar varieties include many of the 8TF and 8/7 TF varieties.  There are many varieties herein that have not been seen elsewhere.  This is a cumulation of 30 years of writing 58 books and finding coins to use for the books.

    I am attempting to get my web page back online

    The restrike book is complete, but it has been in editing for the past year, hopefully soon, if interested in this book, please advise.

    I am also working on a history of coins book, after that I will probably just do kids books to help get the next generation involved.

    If any questions, please email me

    Thanks
