westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 01/21/2015 1:52 pm Cool video! I contacted Stacks/Bowers a couple of weeks ago regarding ordering the hardbound catalogs, no answer yet, other than a canned response they got my email and will respond.

Tbone Pillar of the Community United States 1839 Posts	Posted 02/02/2015 4:55 pm Even though it's unlikely I'll be bidding on any of these coins I am kind of giddy thinking about them and can't wait for this auction to take place. It's being split up over several years (May 2015 to May 2017, 7 sessions) but the first group comes up this May. Take a look at this coin. I don't think you could have better toning on a coin if you got to decide exactly how and where the toning occurred. This coin just blows me away on all levels: http://media.stacksbowers.com/Pogue...ght-002.html 1796 Draped Bust Half Dollar. O-102. Rarity-5+. 16 Stars. MS-66 You can download super high resolution images of it here. http://images.pcgs.com/trueview/02807897 Makes a great desktop background Here's a sneak peak at all of the coins in the first session http://media.stacksbowers.com/Pogue...in-list.html Edited by Tbone 02/02/2015 5:07 pm Report this Post to the Staff
jdiablo30 Pillar of the Community United States 946 Posts	Posted 02/03/2015 06:32 am Wowsers...it must be awesome to be able to afford and attain coins of that caliber! Maybe one day when I win the lottery I can have a fantastic piece or 20 like this! Report this Post to the Staff
westcoin Pillar of the Community United States 9792 Posts	Posted 02/21/2015 04:26 am Getting closer to the auction now. I see Stack's/Bowers have released two new Q. David Bowers books on the D. Brent Pogue collection: The "1822 Gold Half Eagle - Story of a Rarity" and "Treasures from the D. Brent Pogue Rare Coin Cabinet" from the upcoming sales. Both books are available to order now, and BONUS they have very high quality FREE digital online copies you can view at your leisure! Thanks Stack's/Bowers! See the following page link to access both books: http://media.stacksbowers.com/pogue...e-books.html "Buy the Book Before You Buy the Coin" - Aaron R. Feldman - "And read it" - Me 2013!

scottk Pillar of the Community United States 767 Posts	Posted 02/21/2015 12:22 pm Don't think I've heard of the Pogues. Do they do coppers? Large cents? Edited by scottk 02/21/2015 12:23 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Tbone Pillar of the Community United States 1839 Posts	Posted 02/21/2015 12:24 pm The provenance on some of those could take up a whole page to themselves. I can't even imaging what kind of money these will bring. Report this Post to the Staff

Darth Morgan Pillar of the Community United States 2815 Posts	Posted 02/21/2015 1:55 pm This collection is so far beyond me that I can't even really be interested in it. I am too excluded from it as a collector. That's just how I feel anyway. Report this Post to the Staff
Tbone Pillar of the Community United States 1839 Posts	Posted 02/21/2015 2:15 pm Darth Morgan, I know what you mean as far as looking a these from a collector's point of view. I pretty much look at these coins like I would works of art. I look at them the way I might look at the Mona Lisa, or The Sistine Chapel. Only in this case it's something that I already have a strong passion for... coins. Report this Post to the Staff

Dallas based real estate investors (really wealthy real estate investors), the family has several companies around the country. They have been putting the collection together for awhile, yes they do copper, not sure how long though, they do include some coins purchased at the Goldberg's Missouri Half Cent Cabinet sale last year. I don't think they were looking for complete date sets, more type collecting the very best along with ultra rarities as they came available (They have 2 1804 dollars, one is the finest known, both are Class 1, so not looking at variety collecting either).

Tbone Pillar of the Community United States 1839 Posts	Posted 03/12/2015 2:18 pm Just ordered the books that westcoin linked to above, can't wait to get them. I saw some of the coins on display at the Portland ANA show and they are without a doubt the most beautiful coins I have ever seen. Report this Post to the Staff
