Oh I would not be surprised if they always command a premium, but percentagewise they are probably at their maximum premium at the auction. Report this Post to the Staff

magicalmke Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 11/08/2017 1:54 pm I picked up an ex col green ex Newman coin a few months ago on great collections. Overpaid a little for it but got like a 30% discount from the original sale. I'll post a picture later. My observation is the premium definitely drops after the initial sale. This can be attributed to all the marketing and large number of well heeled collectors at the first offering. At resale, those same market conditions don't always exist. Of course, if you see one you like there's no guarantee it'll show up for sale again anytime soon ! Report this Post to the Staff

He wrote several "works about early American coins and paper money considered the standards on their subjects", as well as hundreds of articles. Newman sold his coins over five auctions in 2013-2014 for almost $55 million. (source wikipedia) Report this Post to the Staff
