The January 2015 NYINC Auction
Welcome to the sale! 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:

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.

The Ray Czahor Collection (Continued)
Philippines Countermarks
For anyone starting to collect the countermarked coins of the Philippines, below is a checklist of the basic types and some major varieties.
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.

BRAZIL
3294 Quintino Bocayuva Plaque Obverse Galvano, ND (ca.
1910-1920). 211 mm; 359.6 gms. 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. An almost certainly
unique item with a lovely early 20th century portrait.

CUBA
3432 Municipio de Bayamo. Real, ND (ca. 1738-56).
cf.Ulex-2454; cf.Eklund-1742. 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
time consuming process which seems to indicate an acute
shortage of coinage, but adequate supplies, time, and labor.

3522 Framed Napoleonic Medals, ca. 1800. 8 pieces in lot. 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.

4190 8 Reales, 1823-JP. KM-117.3; FC-85b. VERY RARE. Overstruck on a Republic 1822 “Peru Libre” 8 Reales (KM-136).
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. Good strike with a solid portion of the
under type still visible, lightly toned, several scratches.

Terms & Conditions
1. 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. Rights granted to Bidders under the within Terms and Conditions of Auction Sale are personal and apply only to the Bidder who initially purchases the lot(s)
from Stack’s Bowers. The rights may not be assigned or transferred to any other per-
son or entity, whether by sale of the lot(s), operation of law or otherwise. Any attempt
to assign or transfer any such rights shall be absolutely void and unenforceable. No
third party may rely on any benefit or right conferred by these Terms and Conditions
of Auction Sale.
Any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms of Sale, the Auction Sale or any lot,
with the sole exception of actions by Stack’s Bowers to collect amounts owed to it and
other damages, shall be submitted to binding arbitration pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of the American Arbitration Association, with any arbitration
hearing to occur in Orange County, California. Absent an agreement of the parties,
the arbitrator shall limit discovery to that which is necessary to enable the hearing
to proceed efficiently. The arbitrator shall not have the power to award punitive or
consequential damages, nor alter, amend modify any of the terms of this Agreement.
The award by the arbitrator, if any, may be entered in any court having jurisdiction
thereof. Each party shall pay one-half the costs of the arbitration. Bidder acknowledges and agrees that the competent courts of the State of California shall have exclusive
in personam jurisdiction, subject to the requirement to arbitrate, over any dispute(s)
arising hereunder, regardless of any party’s current or future residence or domicile.
Bidder further agrees that venue of the arbitration proceeding shall be in Orange
County, California; and any court proceeding shall be in the Orange County Superior
Court, in the State of California, and in each case waive any claim of Forum Non Conveniens. Bidder agrees that any arbitration or legal action with respect to this Auction
Sale is barred unless commenced within one (1) year of the date of this Auction Sale.
AUCTION PARTICIPANTS EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.
13. General Terms. These Terms and Conditions of Auction Sale and the auction
shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and governed by, the laws of
the State of California, regardless of the location of the Auction Sale. These Terms of
Sale and the information on the Stack’s Bowers’ website constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto on the subject matter hereof and supersede all other
agreements, understandings, warranties and representations concerning the subject
matter hereof. If any section of these Terms of Auction Sale or any term or provision
of any section is held to be invalid, void, or unenforceable by any court of competent
jurisdiction, the remaining sections or terms and provisions of a section shall continue in full force and effect without being impaired or invalidated in any way. Stack’s
Bowers may at its sole and absolute discretion, make loans or advances to Consignors
and/or Bidders.
14. Special Services. If you wish to limit your total expenditures, please fill in the
maximum amount you wish to spend on the MAXIMUM EXPENDITURE line at
the upper portion of your bid sheet. You can then submit bids for amounts up to
eight times the amount of the maximum expenditure. 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. While we will do our best in your behalf, due to the speed of
the auction sale and the sometimes crowded conditions, we cannot be responsible for
failure to execute such a bid properly. Due to the bookkeeping involved, this service is
offered only to bidders with maximum expenditures of $1,000 or more.
Bidding in this Auction Sale constitutes unconditional acceptance by the Bidder of
the foregoing Terms and Conditions of Auction Sale.
PCGS & NGC numbers provided are for bidder convenience only, we do not guarantee their accuracy. An incorrect PCGS or NGC number is not grounds to return a lot.
