PLEASE READ BEFORE BIDDING

Coins and medals are sold at so much per lot and no lot will be sepa- rated The auctioneer will accept an advance of 1 cent up to 50c., then 5c. up to $2.50, when 10c. advance must be bid, up to $10, when no advance under 25 cents will be accepted. You can bid anything up to 50c., after that the bid must be 55c., or 00c. Such offers as 51c., $1.01, etc., are unavailable.

Auction sales are strictly for cash. Parties unknown to me and bidding for the first time, must give bank or other reliable reference.

Forward your bids as early as possible, as thousands of bids have to be entered. Do not make ridiculously low bids, such as 10 and 15c on foreign silver coins worth several times over as bullion. Write your bids plainly, with a pen if practicable. I have taken special pains to carefully and fairly describe each lot.

Where the number of pieces in a lot is not given after the description, there is but one piece in the lot.

The coins, etc. , in each lot are different unless otherwise described.

Be sure you bid on the lot you wish to buy.

All coins, etc., are genuine unless otherwise described.

My charge for executing bids will be 5 per cent. No charge made for bidding except for lots actually purchased. Remit by money order or New York draft, as the usual exchange fee will be deducted from checks.

We will price your catalogue for 75c.

Wilson Sale Priced Catalogues

PLAIN CATALOGUES

Through some oversight it was not stated in the preface of the Wilson sale catalogue that we would furnish a printed list giving the prices realized for each lot at this noted sale for $1.00. We beg now to make this announcement, and to state also that we will price your catalogue in ink for $2.00, if you so prefer. To those who did not ask for a catalogue of the sale, we can send a copy with printed list, in case one is desired.

PLATE CATALOGUES

The Plate catalogue contains twenty-eight plates on extra heavy paper — more plates than any coin catalogue issued in this country ever contained. The high quality and rarity of the offerings in this sale makes this catalogue a valuable refer- ence book. No live collector can afford to be without one. Price of the plate catalogue, prepaid, only $4.00. This wrill not begin to pay for the outlay of making them, even though the full number of copies on hand were sold.
