Gresham have you Ever been to an auction where there were about250 bidders where there was a Good auctioneer and equally Good numismatic material if you Haven to then you have Bee missing a very important part of numismatics and it can be fun i auction sales Are important to the Hobby in that they preserve records of collections and sales. The trends Section of Coin world is based partly on reports of auctions throughout the , Harris Craig and Many other authors use auctions to help Price the coins in their books. A Good Supply of auction Cata logs is a necessary tool to anyone wishing to attribute evaluate and Catalon a collection or even just a few coins. Many times you willbe unable to locate a certain Coin in a Standard reference but then find Itin an auction Catalon. Two Standard reference books in this writer s Library Are actually auction sales Cata logs reprinted and bound the Jules Fonrobert collection Sale of 1878, and the h. T. Grogan Sale of1914. Both Are known and quoted throughout the world just As Are Yeo Man Craig and other writers. At the club level an auction can Bea great Deal of fun particularly if you have an Active auction committee you c3" a co Plisner auctioneer with License in hand All material r meeting r�0m a a perhaps 5� lots the auction committee designates someone to be auctioneer for your auction this auctioneer May conduct the whole Sale. Or he May sell the first 20 lots then another Volunteer auction the next 20 lots. Your committee keeps rotating the auction duties until they know they have found the club s Best they Don t work him to death for he is now the head auctioneer of your club and he oversees the activities of thrones who Aren t As Good As he is. They do most of the work. But he stays tuned for his big event of the year your annual show this brings you to the practical Side of an auction at the club level. Properly conceived and conducted an auction can add profit dollars to the club Treasury with very Little Effort on the part of All concerned and no major risk or Cash outlay for the club. The Sale gives you As a seller a Cliance to unload much of the Deadwood which you bought four years ago when the Market was at its Peak. Sure you Are going to lose Money on some fit but you can Salvage something by getting the coins into circulation again As a buyer you now have a Chance to til some of those vacant holes in your folders. People will put coins in an auction that you have been wanting for years even they did t realize what coins they really had until the right stimulus was applied the Chance to sell Deadwood at an auction. Auction cards Are not necessary but Are highly recommended for they help keep orderly records. If you have Large crowds Reserve bids Are Seldom necessary sometimes an owner maybe allowed one or two protective bids from the floor As opposed to a minimum starting bid. There Are a number of ways to prevent a $25 Coin from going at $2, but your auctioneer is the key to preventing this. Try starting one auction without minimum bids then Tryone with you la soon find which your club members like Best. But try both methods. Set a limit on the number of lots a member can enter to Many lots can ruin the buyer s patience interest and enjoyment. The spirit of Competition is at its highest in an auction s fun try it and see.
