THE CALM AFTER THE STORM

NOT SO QUIET

The Bass sale was an aberration of the market. The powerful results were unexpected. However, we knew the regular marketplace was nowhere near as active. It is safe to say we are slowly coming out of the summer ANA show doldrums.

We were surprised to sell a few five figure coins this past week. Our lone Bass inventory purchase of the $5 1909 PCGS PR67 CAC which we posted at $129,500.00 (SOLD) had three serious buyers nearly as soon as we listed it. Collectors cannot get enough of the BEST coins (of any price range).

Regular coins (yeah, we call them widgets), seem to be languishing a bit if they are not in auction. That is not right as you can get much better deals buying from dealers right now. However, there are not many great cheaper coins to be found. Our buying at Long Beach was ZERO! As we emerge for the summer doldrums the market should return to full strength. We are worried if we will ever buy any great coins at shows again. Until then, you can do some of your best buying today.

WHY SELL NOW?

The market can absorb only so much. We thought it would have run out of steam by now-it has not. When will it stop? Who knows. That is why if you have duplicates or are thinking of selling period, you should do it now while you can enjoy good prices. Trying to judge the top of the market just does not work and usually costs money.

We can help you in 3 ways. #1 Outright buys. #2 Consignment. #3 Auction. Talk to us and we’ll recommend the right option to you. Last month we bought a $2 million dollar collection. We can handle any amount. It also does not matter what grading service you have.

It never hurts to be in a cash position. As coins become scarcer, better coins become what we call “cash” coins. Meaning anyone would write a check-not trade for them. You could lose a coin if you seek to trade for it.

Legend is also seeking better PCGS CAC coins for its inventory. What do you have for sale? We are more than willing to buy entire collections!

NEWPS

We are still weeks away from offering the Walkers. CAC is so far behind. We promise, they are coming! Until then, look at what we have this week:

An 1857 PCGS CAC ORIGINAL MATCHED PROOF SET. WOW! We consider a set like this to be the last frontier of numismatics. Imagine a 165-year-old set that remained intact in choice/GEM condition. We consider this to be a treasure/keepsake item.

10C 1897 PCGS PR67+ CAMEO CAC

G $1 1877 PCGS MS68 CAC OGH

All of our NEWPS are seriously incredible coins. We like to think ALL of the coins we have listed are special. We know what true quality and real eye appeal are! Check out the great coins we have sale, you’ll be glad to add them to your collection. Terms available.

Coming soon! We have at least 50 coins up at CAC. They are from a big Walker deal plus a Morgan Deal. The Walkers do have some key dates in SUPERB GEM. All of these coins were bought well over 20 years ago! There will be MANY neat coins priced BELOW $5,000.00!

We do not understand why we still have such cool coins like the 1930-S 25C PCGS MS67+ FH CAC or the G $1 1852-C PCGS MS64 CAC. These coins need good homes! If we put them in auction you’d only be in competition and possible pay more. It’s to everyone’s benefit these coins are placed by us. Check out the neat coins we have for sale.

JUST ARRIVED FROM CAC: ROUND I OF THE RS WALKER COLLECTION. ALSO A FEW GEM MORGANS FROM ANOTHER DEAL. THIS GROUP WILL BE IN THE NEWPS NEXT WEEK

LEGEND RARE COIN AUCTIONS

Do not know which is more exciting-our current Regency 55 sale or the coins we are receiving for our Regency 56 Sale in December.

Activity is strong already for Regency 55 and its Internet ONLY session. We are super excited to be selling the $5 1831 PCGS MS65+ CAC Ex Pogue. This coin is BETTER than what you will find in Bass!  We expect it to be a record breaker! The $20 1893-S PCGS MS65 ex Akers is no slouch either. It was the plate coin from his book on $20. You can’t find a coin like this anymore. There are over 250 really super lots in Auction 55.

Auction 56 already has TWO collections-a nearly complete choice Bust Half set and a gorgeous GEM MS Indian Cent Collection. Time is running out to add YOUR coins to this amazing sale that will take place Dec 8th in Las Vegas at the PCGS Invitational show.

Special note: LRCA will be posting a video about Regency 55. It will be on Instagram and check LRCA’s market report for a link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SuR9Nlo0rv4&feature=youtu.be
