We desire to call particular attention to this collection of coins,


being confident that amateurs will find very many cheap coins
which have long been wanted to fill up gaps in their collections,
and add historic interest to their cabinet, as there will be plenty of
chances to buy fine portrait coins of the old Roman emperors at a
very moderate price, and from the fact of there being but little to
attract large buyers, those of limited means can be sure of supply-
ing their wants at low prices, while the many interesting foreign
coins must appeal to all who really wish to educate themselves in
numismatic studies.
The collection of Masonic Medals is worthy of especial attention,
as the opportunity of completing sets of this interesting series is

very rarely offered to the public, such medals as come into the
market being usually sold at retail and at high prices.
Collectors living at too great a distance from New York to attend
in person, may have their orders executed by the auctioneers,
Messrs. Scott &
Co.; or other dealers, for a commission of 10 per
cent, on amounts under $100— over $100, 5 per cent. a uniform —
charge of 50 cents made on any amount under $5.
In reference to the method of selling at auction we would say
that each lot is sold to the highest bidder, at so much for each coin
in the lot, so if you which contains 10 pieces,
desire a lot of coins
and you wish to pay it, you should
$1.00 for bid 10 cents each.
Always state your highest price, relying on the honor of those you
employ to make the purchase for you at the lowest possible figure.
The coins will be on exhibition at the Auction Rooms, on the day
of sale, from 10 A. M. to 5 P. M.
