I hope everyone is doing welll.

I noticed the Torex auction is coming up shortly...

Curious about the Wildlife Museum collection that is up for auction...the coins are amazing...does anyone know about this collection?

How did it come about that a Wildlife Museum broke off into coin collecting, just curious if anyone has any info...

Otherwise, is anyone from here attending or bidding from home?

I was quite confused about this name as well until I read where it came from. The "Wildlife Museum" collection is the name the collector wanted the auction to give his collection as he wanted to remain anonymous. The collection is not actually from a museum, although many of the items are museum quality. Apparently he has made his living from wildlife and the outdoors.

I certainly hope the coins do well. I have teo quarters in the sale. Truely a spectacular auction. Some of the best coins I've seen.

I'm astonished by the quality of the material being offered. These coins are absolutely spectacular.

Unfortunately, the lack of catalogue descriptions is equally baffling. Many of these $5k to $20k lots have terse, one or two-line write-ups. I wouldn't be terribly pleased if I was the consignor.
