Book Description

Excerpt from Public Auction Sale: The Elliott Burgher and Other Collections of Rare Coins, Paper Money, Curios, Relics, Etc Coins and medals are sold at so much per piece, and no lot will be separated. You cannot buy a few pieces out of a lot but must buy all of it. The auctioneer will accept no bid under 10 cents to start a lot where that lot contains only one piece; nor will he accept any advance under 5c on any lot containing but one piece; after the price has reached $2. No advance under 100 will be accepted on any lot containing one piece; after the bid must advance 250 each time; after $10 no bid under 50c. Our rules regarding lots containing more than one piece will remain unchanged and the same as before. Auction sales are strictly for cash. Parties unknown to me and bidding for the first time, must give bank or other reliable reference, or their bids will not be executed. Forward your bids as early as possible, as thousands of bids have to be entered. Do not make ridiculously low bids, such as 100. And 150. On foreign silver coins worth several times over as bullion. Write your bids plainly, with a pen if practicable. Where the number of pieces in a lot is not given after the description there is but one piece in the lot. Be sure you bid on the lot you wish to buy. We cannot correct such errors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
