The January 2105 Stack’s Bowers Galleries Official Auction of the New York International Numismatic Convention showcases “a collection of collections.” In the pages that follow, we are proud to present specialized collections of such diverse coins as Philippines counterstamps, Spanish Colonial Proclamation Medals, Swedish Plate Money, German Crowns and Talers, ancient coins and many other specialties. Mixed in are highlights from important properties, ranging from single item consignments to large collections. All are presented here, for you, the numismatic enthusiast. Named collections abound, and include: The Stanley Aberdeen Collection of Swedish Plate Money, The John Adams Collection of Spanish Colonial Proclamation Medals, The Dr. Richard Aghababian Collection of Ancient Coins, The Ray Czahor Collection of Philippines Coins, selections from The Demarete Collection, and The Rockaway Collection of German Crowns and Talers. Other important consignments include a fine selection of Brazilian gold coins, Russian and Latin American gold and silver coins, and many others. In the three live sessions, we will offer over 1,800 lots, with an additional selection of over 1,650 lots in our Internet session. Session A will commence on Friday, January 9 at 6:30 p.m. ET, with nearly 300 lots of ancient coins. Among these are popular ancient type coins, rare Greek and Roman issues, and a good selection of Roman Aureii. Highlights include: a silver Dodekadrachm of the Derrones, two Dekadrachms of Syracuse, a neat pair of Mysian electrum Staters, a strong selection of Judean coins, and fantastic gold aureii of the Roman emperors Octavian and Julius Caesar, Claudius, Antoninus Pius, Probus (and others). Also offered will be ancient coins from most issuing authorities and locales, in price points that will suit any collecting budget. Then come world coins of the more “modern” age. Starting with coins of Albania and continuing through German coins, we present over 470 lots of gold coins, crowns, and minors in silver and copper. Latin American coins, long a specialty of ours at Stack’s Bowers Galleries, include a unique and recent discovery: a lovely 1760/59 Colombian 8 Reales, the only known example of the date to exist. This is the second year in a row that a newly discovered and unique Colombian coin holds a prominent position in our Official Auction of the New York International Numismatic Convention. Another South American rarity offering good crossover appeal to collectors of African crowns is a Chilean 8 Reales minted at Santiago in 1764, bearing the Mozambique countertstamp for the decree of 1765. Canadian collectors will be enticed by specimen 20 Cent of 1858 graded PCGS MS-64+ with a reeded edge and Demarete pedigree. A lovely gem Specimen 1914 Pattern Dollar of China signed by L. Giorgi will turn heads. A large selection of German States crowns and talers anchored by The Rockaway Collection provides a good transition spot and is highlighted by a very rare 1702 medallic taler of Brunswick Wolfenbuttel displaying allegorical scenes outlining the political strife of the time. Other rare coins, high grade examples of popular types, and special items fill in, rounding out a great auction session. vi Session B will commence at 6:30 p.m. ET on Saturday, January 10, and features coins from Ghana to Yemen, but begins with the specialized collection of Spanish Colonial Proclamation medals formed by John W. Adams. Spanish proclamation medals were issued to commemorate loyalty to new kings in the Spanish Empire and were produced in various colonial possessions throughout the ages. This collection focuses on the 18th century, as these also have a crossover appeal to collectors of United States medals, as they are listed in the Betts reference on medals related to colonial America. Mr. Adams’ efforts in searching out these rare and slightly obscure items, and assembling them into a comprehensive collection have led to a better understanding of the series. A large selection of Philippine coinage anchored by The Ray Czahor Collection and augmented by other important properties presents a once-in-a-lifetime offering of these fascinating, rare and important coins. Russian coins from a number of different consignors are highlighted by rare gold coins and silver Rubles, including two rare Proof gold 10 Rubles. Rare South African Proof Sets of 1892 and 1931, the latter pedigreed to The Demarete Collection, are important opportunities for the specialist. Swedish Plate Money from The Stanley Aberdeen Collection is highlighted by an 8 Schilling piece of 1715 struck during the Great Northern War. Session C, our World Paper Money session, will be held at our auction gallery on the second floor of the Director’s Guild of America Building (110 W. 57th Street) at 11a.m. ET on Monday, January 12. A diverse and exciting offering of 300 lots is strong in Middle Eastern notes, with a nice selection of Saudi Arabian notes, and a rare Palestine Currency Board 5 Pound note of 1927. Session D, our Internet-only session, closes Tuesday, January 13 at 6 p.m. ET, and the nearly 1,700 lots of highly collectible coins and banknotes are offered in a separate catalog. Be sure to review these lots as well. On behalf of the entire staff at Stack’s Bowers Galleries, we thank you for participating in our January 2015 Official Auction of the New York International Numismatic Convention, and appreciate you ringing in the numismatic New Year with us! We hope to see you at lot viewing either in our Irvine, CA headquarters, our New York Gallery at 110 W. 57th Street, or at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel at the auction. We wish you the best of good in your bidding. Richard Ponterio The Rockaway Collection The Rockaway Collection was the proud and passionate pastime of an amateur collector whose love for American, European, and Chinese history influenced acquisitions from the 1960s to the 1990s. To the collector, every coin was an interesting story, a moment in time, an opportunity to research and be inspired by fascinating peoples and places that existed long ago. As such, the coins, once amassed, were tended to rather than sold. It is why these pieces have been off the market for many decades. The recent passing of the collector is the reason The Rockaway Collection is now available. Future Stack’s Bowers Galleries auctions will showcase additional World and U.S. coins from this marvelous collection. vii The Ray Czahor Collection Ray started collecting coins and stamps in the early 1950s. After collecting over 5,500 world stamps, he quickly realized he hadn’t even scratched the surface, and traded all his stamps, albums, and catalogs to a couple for their United States coin collection. To this day, he has maintained his interest in U.S. type sets, Buffalo nickels, Standing Liberty quarters, Walking Liberty halves and U.S. currency. His interest in Philippine numismatics began when he was stationed there in 1963, while a newly minted 2nd Lieutenant in the United States Air Force. He was fascinated with the history of the Philippines as it moved from Spanish rule through the United States’ administration to the Philippine Republic. He was interested in the governments’ varied impact on coins, tokens, medals and currency, including during the Japanese Occupation and Guerilla/Emergency notes. All areas of Philippine coinage had collectible interest for Ray, including the trials, patterns, varieties and low mintages that enhance the challenge of Philippine numismatics. Currently, Ray distributes an annual mail bid covering World War II books and all aspects of Philippine numismatics. He can be reached at [email protected]. viii Ray purchased his first Philippine Counterstamp in 1964, an 1835 Y.II C/S on an 1754 Mexican 8 Reales coin for $50 (not offered in the sale but part of his Philippine type set). He knew Pillar coins were very collectible, but with a Philippine counterstamp — wow! That purchase initiated his research into the history of these interesting coins, but little information was available in the Philippines. After returning to the United States in 1965, he found articles by Dr. P.I. DeJesus who listed several types of counterstamps. Ray began to search through dealer lists and at tables at coin shows and slowly added a few pieces to his collection. But it wasn’t until the mid1980s that significant and new information was provided by Frank F. Gilboy, in an article in the June 1984 issue of the Barrilla, official publication of the Philippine Central Bank Money Museum. In the article, Mr. Gilboy explained how to date the individual counterstamps by examining the number of pearls in sequence in the crown of the counterstamp. From his examination of a number of examples, Mr. Gilboy was able to estimate the percentages of counterstamp strikings of each date. Ray’s experience generally supports Mr. Gilboy’s estimates of the relative rarity of the date of the counterstamp. This energized Ray’s interest to find the scarcer dated counterstamps, and to start looking for them on rarer country host coins, varieties or overdated host coins, and particularly to search for higher grade host coins and counterstamps. Some countries such as Peru and Mexico provided many examples, but finding the coin and the counterstamp in VF to AU was the challenge! The Ray Czahor Collection (Continued) Ray is excited that Stack’s Bowers Galleries has agreed to list the counterstamps as dated by Mr. Gilboy. That information follows: F.7.º 1832 5-4-· F.7.º 1833 5-4-2 F.7.º 1834 5-4-1 Y.II. 1834 5-3-1 Y.II 1835 5-4-1 Y.II 1836 5-4-3 Y.II 1837 5-3-2 Table excerpt from Frank F. Gilboy’s article in June 1984 issue of Barilla Magazine, published by the Philippine Central Bank. The inclusion of Frank F. Gilboy’s crown variety date chart is for collector convenience only. Stack’s Bowers Galleries can neither confirm nor deny its accuracy, as further research is needed. ix The Ray Czahor Collection (Continued) Coinage of the Philippines • Reference Material & Bibliography Basso – Basso, Aldo P.

The rarities assigned to each of these are based purely on the general type and do not account for scarce or rare host coins or host dates. Famed Philippines author and collector Pablo I. de Jesus came up with a general list by country and type from most the common to the rarest. Below is his list as seen in the Philippine Numismatic Monographs Number 16, August 1966. 1. Peru. The Lima mint of 1830-36 are the most common, but earlier dates 1822-29 are scarce. Cuzco mint is also scarce. 2. Mexico 1832-36, but the earlier dates are scarce, the hookneck eagle types and Augustinus are rare. 3. Bolivia. 4. Chile, Colombia. There was a special importation of Chilean pesos of 1834 and Colombian 8 Reales of 1835. 5. Guatemala, Argentina and Spain. 6. Brazil, U.S.A. and European crowns. 7. Spanish colonial including bust-type and pillar dollars with chopmarks. 8. Countermarks on minor coins. 9. Perforated coins countermarked on the hole. 10. “Manila” overstrikes are rare, especially 1829 and 1830. 11. Two or more countermarks on one coin are very rare. The combination of the Pablo I. de Jesus list and the checklist below is sure to give any collector of Philippines countermarks a good start and a better understanding of this series. The Ray Czahor Collection of Philippines Countermarks contains a vast majority of types and varieties on the checklist as well as many rare host coins.

By Felix Charpentier. A curious and rather enigmatic item. Uniface and seemingly made from a nickel based base metal alloy created through the electrotype process from another model. Whether this piece was intended to be used to make smaller models through reduction, or if this was simply a trial or model of the finished product we do not know. However, it is likely that this was a trial and the finished plaque would be made in bronze. Likely made shortly before or after Quintino Bacayuva’s death in 1912, after having served in various posts in Brazilian government for the previous fifteen years.

One of the first coinage issues of Cuba. Of tremendous historical importance. “MUNICIPIO - DE BAYAMO”, octagon with “1R” inside; Reverse: Incuse of obverse. Bayamo is located adjacent to the then capital of Santiago. Bayamo was also the site of copper mining. The minting process must have been laborious, as there is evidence of an under struck smaller “1” below the larger “1” indicating each letter is an individual punch.

A pair of black enamel and gilt frames, each displaying four bronze and lead uniface cliches. The first is about 15 x 5 1/2 in. and includes: Cliches of the Battle of Marengo Medal (Bram-40), The Empress Josephine Medal (Bram-476), Emperor Napoleon Medal (Bram-299) and the Passage of St. Bernard Medal (Bram-35). All are 65 mm as listed by Bramsen. The second frame is slightly larger and includes: Arrival of the royal Family in Paris medal, 1789 (Jul-14), Empress Maria-Louise medal (Bram-1028), Emperor Napoleon medal (Bram-475) and a storming of the Bastille medal (Hen-23). The first and last pieces measure about 84 mm and the other two are about 65mm. These cliches were produced by the sculptor Bertrand Andrieu (1761-1822), who sold cliches of his medals in his Paris studio where he was allowed to produce and sell electrotype copies of the Paris mint medals he had designed. These were popular decorator items at the time and were available as single pieces or in cases or display frames such as these. Two hundred years ago they were proudly displayed by Frenchmen who wished to show their appreciation for their country’s history and today they serve the same purpose for numismatists and historians. The frames are sound although they have the expected small nicks and scratches. The glass is intact; however, the paper backing to the frames has been removed and copper hook-eye loops with a wire for hanging have been added. SOLD AS IS/NO RETURNS.

On several occasions during the War of Independence, control of the city of Lima shifted back and forth between Royalist and Republican forces. Under the command of generals Canterac and Valdez, Royalist forces successfully re-captured the city on June 18th, 1823. Mandatory financial contributions were enforced upon the people of Lima in support of the Royalist cause. Contributions collected in the form of the “Peru Libre” Republican type 8 Reales were then overstruck with conventional colonial dies bearing the effigy of Ferdinand VII. Prior to evacuating the city on July 16 1823, Royalist forces shipped much of the minting machinery to the city of Cuzco, before setting fire to the mint in Lima. Very interesting and historically significant, as it’s minting can be pinpointed to a brief period of just under a month during the War of Independence.

Auction Basics. This is a public auction sale (“Auction Sale”) conducted by bonded auctioneers, Stack’s Bowers Galleries or Stack’s Bowers and Ponterio (hereinafter referred to as “Auctioneer” and at times as “Stack’s Bowers”). Bidding in this Auction Sale constitutes acceptance by you (“Bidder”) of all the Terms of Sale stated herein. Bidders may include consignors who may bid and purchase lots in the Auction Sale consigned by the consignor or by other consignors pursuant to their consignment agreement with Stack’s Bowers (“Consignor” or “Consignors”). A Consignor that bids on their own lots in the Auction Sale may pay a different fee than the Buyer’s Premium charged to all other Buyers. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to include in any auction sale its own material as well as material from affiliated or related companies, principals, officers or employees. Stack’s Bowers may have direct or indirect interests in any of the lots in the auction and may collect commissions. THE TWO PRECEEDING SENTENCES SHALL BE DEEMED A PART OF THE DESCRIPTION OF ALL LOTS CONTAINED IN THE CATALOG. Where the Consignor has repurchased a lot and the lot is either returned to the Consignor or otherwise dealt with or disposed of in accordance with the Consignor’s direction, or pursuant to contractual agreement, Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to so note in the prices realized or to omit a price from the prices realized. Stack’s Bowers and its affiliates may bid for their own account at any auction. Stack’s Bowers and its affiliates may have information about any lot that is not known publicly, and Stack’s Bowers and its affiliates reserves the right to use such information, in a manner determined solely by them and for their benefit, without disclosing such information in the catalog, catalog description or at the auction. Bidder acknowledges and agrees that Stack’s Bowers and its affiliates are not required to pay a Buyer’s Premium, or other charges that other Bidders may be required to pay and may have access to information concerning the lots that is not otherwise available to the public. Any claimed conflict of interest or claimed competitive advantage resulting therefrom is expressly waived by all participants in the Auction Sale. Lots may carry a reserve (“Reserve”). A Reserve is a price or bid below which the Auctioneer will not sell an item or will repurchase on behalf of the Consignor or for Stack’s Bowers. Reserves may be confidential and not disclosed. The Buyer is the Bidder who makes the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer, and includes the principal of any Bidder acting as an agent. When identical bids are received for a lot, preference is given to the first bid received as determined by the Auctioneer. A mail bid will take precedence over an identical floor bid; a Floor Bidder, Telephone Bidder and Live Internet Bidder must bid higher than the highest mail bid to be awarded any lot. Cut bids are only accepted on bids greater than $500 and each bidder may only execute one cut bid per lot. Bids will not be accepted from persons under eighteen (18) years of age without a parent’s written consent which acknowledges the Terms of Sale herein and agrees to be bound thereby on behalf of the underage Bidder. The auction sale is complete when the Auctioneer so announces by the fall of the hammer or in any other customary manner. 2. Descriptions and Grading. Bidder acknowledges that grading of most coins and currency in this Auction has been determined by independent grading services, and those that are not may be graded by Stack’s Bowers. Grading of rare coins and currency is subjective and, even though grading has a material effect on the value of the coins and currency, grading may differ among independent grading services and among numismatists. Stack’s Bowers is not responsible for the grades assigned by independent grading services, and makes no warranty or representation regarding such grades. Bidder further acknowledges and agrees that grades assigned by Stack’s Bowers and lot descriptions are based solely upon an examination of the coins and currency and are intended to identify coins and currency and note any perceived characteristics. However, coin grading and descriptions are subjective. Stack’s Bowers does not warrant the accuracy of such grading or descriptions, nor do they in any way form the basis for any bid. All photographs in this catalog are of the actual items being sold but may not be the actual size or to scale. 4. Bidder Registration Required. All persons seeking to bid must complete and sign a registration card either at the auction or online, or otherwise qualifying to bid, as determined in the sole discretion of the Auctioneer. By submitting a bid, the Bidder acknowledges that Bidder has read the Terms and Conditions of Auction Sale, the descriptions for the lot(s) on which they have bid, and that they agree to be bound by these Terms of Sale. This agreement shall be deemed to have been made and entered in California. The Bidder acknowledges that the invoice describing a lot by number incorporates the catalog and Terms of Sale. Person appearing on the OFAC list are not eligible to bid. 3. The Bidding Process. The Auctioneer shall have the right to open or accept the bidding on any lot by placing a bid on behalf of the Consignor or his or her agent; a Bidder by mail, telephone, Internet or telefax; or any other participant in the Auction Sale. Bids must be for an entire lot and each lot constitutes a separate sale. All bids (excluding Internet bids) must be in increment as established by the Auctioneer, or half increment (a cut bid). Non-conforming bids will be rounded up or down to the nearest full or half increment and this rounded bid will be the bidder’s high bid. No lot will be broken up unless otherwise permitted by the Auctioneer. Lots will be sold in their numbered sequence unless Auctioneer directs otherwise. All material shall be sold in separate lots to the highest Bidder as determined by the Auctioneer. Auctioneer shall have the right in its sole and absolute discretion to accept or decline any bid, establish bid increments, challenge any bid or bidding increment, to reduce any mail bid received, adjudicate all bidding disputes, to exclude any bidder and to determine the prevailing bid. The Auctioneer shall have the right, but not the obligation, to rescind the acceptance of any bid and place the lot(s) for Auction Sale again. Auctioneer’s decision on all bidding disputes shall be binding and final. For the mail and Internet Bidder’s protection, no “unlimited” or “buy” bids will be accepted. 6. Payment. Payment is due immediately upon the fall of the auctioneer’s hammer. Payment is delinquent and in default if not received in full, in good funds, within fourteen (14) calendar days of the Auction Sale (the “Default Date”), without exception, time being of the essence. Unless otherwise agreed in writing prior to the Auction Sale, all auction sales are payable strictly in immediately available good U.S. funds, through a bank in the United States. Payments may be made by credit card, Paypal, check, wire transfer, money order and cashier’s check. Cash transactions will be accepted in the sole discretion of Stack’s Bowers, and if accepted, for any cash transaction or series of transactions exceeding $10,000, a Treasury Form 8300 will be filed. Contact Stack’s Bowers for wiring instructions before sending a wire. We accept payment by Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover or Paypal for invoices up to $2,500, with a maximum of $10,000 in any 30 day period. All payments are subject to a clearing period. Checks drawn on U.S. banks will be subject to up to a 10 business day hold, and checks drawn on foreign banks will be subject to a 30 day hold. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right not to release lots for which good funds have not yet been received. On any past due accounts, Stack’s Bowers reserves the right, without notice, to extend credit and impose carrying charges (as described below). Buyers agree to THIS IS NOT AN APPROVAL SALE. Bidders who physically attend the Auction sale, either personally or through an agent (“Floor Bidders”) should carefully examine all lots which they are interested in purchasing. Bidders who bid by telephone, either personally or through an agent, or through our live auction software receive a similar benefit as Floor Bidders in being able to actively participate in the live Auction Sale (“Telephone Bidders” and “Live Internet Bidders”). Except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms of Sale, NO PURCHASED ITEMS MAY BE RETURNED FOR ANY REASON. All prospective Bidders who examine the lot(s) prior to the Auction Sale personally assume all responsibility for any damage that Bidder causes to the lot(s). Stack’s Bowers shall have sole discretion in determining the value of the damage caused, which shall be promptly paid by such Bidder. Certain auctions (iAuctions), will be conducted exclusively over the Internet, and bids will be accepted only from pre-registered Bidders. STACK’S BOWERS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY ERRORS IN BIDDING. All Bidders should make certain to bid on the correct lot and that the bid is the bid intended. Once the hammer has fallen and the Auctioneer has announced the Buyer, the Buyer is unconditionally bound to pay for the lot, even if the Buyer made a mistake. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to withdraw any lot at any time, even after the hammer has fallen, until the Buyer has taken physical possession of the lot. No participant in the Auction Sale shall have a right to claim any damages, including consequential damages if a lot is withdrawn, even if the withdrawal occurs after the Auction Sale. 5. Buyer’s Premiums. A premium of seventeen and one-half percent (17 1/2%) based upon the total amount of the hammer (minimum of $15), will be added to all purchases of individual lots, regardless of affiliation with any group or organization (the “Buyer’s Premium”). A reacquisition charge may apply to Consignors pursuant to a separate agreement, which may be higher or lower than the Buyer’s Premium. 137 Terms & Conditions (cont.) pay reasonable attorney’s fees and cost incurred to collect past due accounts. Buyers personally and unconditionally guarantee payment in full of all amounts owed to Stack’s Bowers. Any person submitting bids on behalf of a corporation or other entity, by making such bid, agrees to be personally jointly and severally liable for the payment of the purchase price and any related charges and the performance of all Buyer obligations under these Terms of Sale and Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to require a written guarantee of such payments and obligations. Bidders who have not established credit with Stack’s Bowers must furnish satisfactory information and credit references and/or deposit at least twenty-five percent (25%) of their total bids for that Auction Sale session(s) or such other amount as Stack’s Bowers may, in its sole and absolute discretion require before any bids from such Bidder will be accepted. Deposits submitted will be applied to purchases. Any remaining deposits will be promptly refunded, upon clearance of funds. 7. Sales Tax. Buyers will be charged all applicable sales tax, including Buyers who pick up at this Auction or shipments to Buyers in California and New York without a valid Resale Certificate which has been provided to the Auctioneer prior to the auction. Please note that the purchase of any coin or bullion lot(s) with a price, including the Buyer’s Premium, in excess of: (i) One Thousand Dollars ($1,000), for auctions held in Maryland, are exempt from Maryland sales tax, and (ii) One Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($1,500) are exempt from California sales tax. These exemptions do not apply purchases of currency. Purchases of coins and currency are exempt from sales tax in Illinois. Purchases of coins and bullion are exempt from sales tax in Pennsylvania, but currency purchased at auctions held in Pennsylvania are subject to Pennsylvania sales tax. Please note, this is not, and is not intended to be, a complete description of applicable sales tax laws in all jurisdictions. In the event any applicable sales tax is not paid by Buyer that should have been paid, even if not such tax was not collected by Stack’s Bowers by mistake, error, negligence or gross negligence, Buyer nonetheless remains fully liable for and agrees to promptly pay such taxes on demand, together with any interest or penalty that may be assessed by the taxing authority. 8. Financial Responsibility. In the event any applicable conditions of these Terms of Sale herein are not complied with by a Buyer or if the Buyer fails to make payment in full by the Default Date, Stack’s Bowers reserves the right, in its sole discretion, in addition to all other remedies which it may have at law or in equity to rescind the sale of that lot or any other lot or lots sold to the defaulting Buyer, retaining all payments made by Buyer as liquidated damages, it being recognized that actual damages may be speculative or difficult to compute, and resell a portion or all of the lots held by Stack’s Bowers, in a commercially reasonable manner, which may include a public or private sale, in a quantity sufficient in the opinion of Stack’s Bowers to satisfy the indebtedness, plus all accrued charges, and Stack’s Bowers may charge a seller’s commission that is commercially reasonable. More than one such sale may take place at the option of Stack’s Bowers. If Stack’s Bowers resells the lots, Buyer agrees to pay for the reasonable cost of such sale, together with any incidental costs of sale, including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs, cataloging and any other reasonable charges. Notice of the sale shall be by U.S.P.S. Certified Mail, Return Receipt Requested to the address utilized on the Bid Sheet, Auction Consignment and Security Agreement or other last known address by Stack’s Bowers. The proceeds shall be applied first to the satisfaction of any damages occasioned by Buyer’s breach, then to any other indebtedness owed to Stack’s Bowers, including without limitation, commissions, handling charges, carrying charges, the expenses of both sales, seller’s fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, collection agency fees and costs and any other costs or expenses incurred. Buyer shall also be liable to Stack’s Bowers for any deficiency if the proceeds of such sale or sales are insufficient to cover such amounts. Buyer grants to Stack’s Bowers, its affiliates and assignees, the right to offset any sums due, or found to be due to Stack’s Bowers, and to make such offset from any past, current, or future consignment, or purchases that are in the possession or control of Stack’s Bowers; or from any sums due to Buyer by Stack’s Bowers, its affiliates and assignees. In addition, defaulting Buyers will be deemed to have granted to Stack’s Bowers, its affiliates and assignees, a security interest in: (x) the purchased lots and their proceeds, and (y) such sums or other items and their proceeds, in the possession of Stack’s Bowers, its affiliates or assignees, to secure all indebtedness due to Stack’s Bowers and its affiliated companies, plus all accrued expenses, carrying charges, seller’s fees, attorney fees, and costs, until the indebtedness is paid in full. Buyer grants Stack’s Bowers the right to file a UCC-1 financing statement for such items, and to 138 assign such interest to any affiliated or related company or any third party deemed appropriate by Stack’s Bowers. If the auction invoice is not paid for in full by the Default Date, a carrying charge of one-and-one-half percent (1-1/2%) per month may be imposed on the unpaid amount until it is paid in full. In the event this interest rate exceeds the interest permitted by law, the same shall be adjusted to the maximum rate permitted by law, and any amount paid in excess thereof shall be allocated to principal. Buyer agrees to pay all reasonable attorney’s fees, court costs and other collection costs incurred by Stack’s Bowers or any affiliated or related company to collect past due invoices or to interpret or enforce the terms hereof or in any action or proceeding arising out of or related to the Auction Sale. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to assign its interest to any third party. To the extent that the Buyer for any lot consists of more than one person or entity, each such person or entity is jointly and severally liable for all obligations of the Buyer, regardless of the title or capacity of such person or entity. Stack’s Bowers shall have all the rights of a secured creditor under Article 9 of the California Commercial Code and all rights of the consignor to collect amounts due from the Buyer, whether at law or equity. 9. Shipping. It is the Buyer’s responsibility to contact Stack’s Bowers after the sale to make shipping and packaging arrangements. Due to the fragile nature of some lots, Stack’s Bowers may elect not to assume responsibility for shipping or packing, or may charge additional shipping and handling. Lots indicated as being “framed” or that are specifically identified in the catalog are shipped at Buyer’s risk. All taxes, postage, shipping, if applicable, handling, insurance costs, the Buyer’s Premium, and any other fees required by law to be charged or collected will be added to the invoice for any lots invoiced to Buyer. All lots will be shipped FOB Destination, freight prepaid and charged back. Title and risk of loss pass to the Buyer at the destination upon tender of delivery. Acceptance of delivery constitutes acceptance of the purchased lots. Inspection of the purchased lots is not required for acceptance. Any and all claims based upon Buyer’s failure to receive a purchased lot, Buyer’s receipt of a lot in damaged condition, or otherwise related to delivery, must be received in writing by Stack’s Bowers no later than the earlier of thirty (30) days after payment, or the date of the Auction Sale (the “Outside Claim Date”). As Buyers may not receive notification of shipment, it is Buyer’s responsibility to keep track of the Outside Claim Date and make timely notification of any such claim. The failure to make a timely claim, time being of the essence, shall constitute a waiver of any such claim. Orders paid by credit card will only be shipped to the verified address on file with the credit card merchant. 10. DISCLAIMER AND WARRANTIES. NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE IS MADE OR IMPLIED ON ANY LOT. NO WARRANTY, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO ANY LOT EXCEPT FOR WARRANTY OF TITLE, AND IN THE CASE OF TITLE, AUCTIONEER IS SELLING ONLY THAT RIGHT OR TITLE TO THE LOT THAT THE CONSIGNOR MAY HAVE AS OF THE AUCTION SALE DATE. ALL LOTS ARE SOLD “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. PURCHASER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RISKS CONCERNING AND RELATED TO THE GRADING, QUALITY, DESCRIPTION, CONDITION, AUTHENTICITY, AND PROVENANCE OF A LOT. a. COINS AND CURRENCY LISTED IN THIS CATALOG GRADED BY PCGS, NGC, ANACS CACHET, ICG, PCGS CURRENCY, PMG OR ANY OTHER THIRD PARTY GRADING SERVICE OR EXAMINED BY THE BUYER PRIOR TO THE AUCTION SALE MAY NOT BE RETURNED FOR ANY REASON WHATSOEVER BY ANY BUYER, EXCEPT FOR CLAIMS RELATED TO AUTHENTICITY. b. For non-certified coins and currency that have not been examined by the Buyer prior to the Auction Sale: if it is determined in a review by Stack’s Bowers that there is a material error in the catalog description of a non-certified coin or currency or the coin or currency is not authentic, such lot may be returned, provided written notice is received by Stack’s Bowers no later than seventy-two (72) hours of delivery of the lots in question, and such lots are returned and received by Stack’s Bowers, in their original, sealed containers, no later than fourteen (14) calendar days after delivery, in the same condition the lot(s) were delivered to the Buyer, time being of the essence. c. If an item or items are returned pursuant to the terms herein, they must be housed in their original, sealed and unopened container. d. Late remittance or removal of any item from its original container, or altering a coin constitutes just cause for revocation of all return privileges. Terms & Conditions (cont.) e. Grading or condition of rare coins and currency may have a material effect on the value of the item(s) purchased, and the opinion of others (including independent grading services) may differ with the independent grading services opinion or interpretation of Stack’s Bowers. Stack’s Bowers shall not be bound by any prior, or subsequent opinion, determination or certification by any independent grading service. f. Questions regarding the minting of a coin as a “proof ” or as a “business strike” relate to the method of manufacture and not to authenticity. g. All oral and written statements made by Stack’s Bowers and its employees or agents (including affiliated and related companies) are statements of opinion only, and are not warranties or representations of any kind, unless stated as a specific written warranty, and no employee or agent of Stack’s Bowers has authority to vary or alter these Terms and Conditions of Auction Sale. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to vary or alter the Terms of Sale, either generally or with respect to specific persons or circumstances, in its sole discretion. Any variation or alteration shall be effective only if in writing and signed by an officer of Stack’s Bowers authorized to do so. h. Stack’s Bowers is acting as an auctioneer. Title to the lots purchased passes directly from the Consignor to the Buyer. Accordingly, Stack’s Bowers is not making, and disclaims, any warranty of title. i. Bidder acknowledges that the numismatic market is speculative, unregulated and volatile, and that coin prices may rise or fall over time. Stack’s Bowers does not guarantee or represent that any customer buying for investment purposes will be able to sell for a profit in the future. j. Bidder acknowledges and agrees that neither Stack’s Bowers, nor its employees, affiliates, agents, third-party providers or consignors warrant that auctions will be unimpaired, uninterrupted or error free and accordingly shall not be liable for such events. 11. Waiver and Release. Bidder, for himself, his heirs, agents, successors and assignees, generally and specifically waives and releases, and forever discharges Stack’s Bowers, and its respective affiliates, parents, officers, directors, shareholders, agents, subsidiaries, employees, managers and members and each of them, and their respective successors and assignees from any and all claims, rights, demands and causes of actions and suits, of whatever kind or nature, including but not limited to claims based upon Auctioneer’s negligence, whether in law or equity, tort or otherwise, whether known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected (a “Claim”), which Bidder may assert with respect to and/or arising out of, or in connection with any challenge to the title to or authenticity of any goods purchased, the sale itself, any lot bid upon or consigned, and/or the auction, except where such Claim is otherwise expressly authorized in these Terms of Sale. It is the intention of Bidder that this waiver and release shall be effective as a bar to each and every Claim that may arise hereunder or be related to the Auction Sale, and Bidder hereby knowingly and voluntarily waives any and all rights and benefits otherwise conferred upon him by the provisions of Section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which reads in full as follows: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” 12. Disputes. If a dispute arises concerning ownership of a lot or concerning proceeds of any sale, Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to commence a statutory interpleader proceeding at the expense of the Consignor and Buyer and any other applicable party, and in such event shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Stack’s Bowers reserves the right to cancel or postpone the Auction Sale or any session thereof for any reason whatsoever. No Bidder shall have any claim as a result thereof, including for incidental or consequential damages. Neither Stack’s Bowers nor any affiliated or related company shall be responsible for incidental or consequential damages arising out of any failure of the Terms of Sale, the auction or the conduct thereof and in no event shall such liability exceed the purchase price, premium, or fees paid.

This is a personal service and a Stack’s Bowers customer representative will personally attend to your bid sheet by bidding from the auction floor, buying lots for your account until your authorized expenditure is reached.
