MORE THAN EVER
IT PAYS TO KEEP POSTED ON COIN VALUES NOW
The rapidly increasing number of collectors, without be- ing able to increase the supply of coins, has brought about definite advances in the values of coins today.
I have approximately ten times as many active collectors on my mailing list as I had twenty-five years ago, and about eight hundred more than I had a year ago.
Therefore a new 1944 edition of the STANDARD CATALOGUE OF UNITED STATES COINS has just been published by Mr. Wayte Raymond. This is the best single book for the coin collector, entirely revised and re- written, with new additional features, and valuable infor- mation. Lists, illustrates, and values early American coins, U.S. gold, silver and copper coins; private gold coins, U.S. pattern coins, commemorative coins, encased postage stamps, Philippine and Hawaiian coins, and gives complete mint reports.
Attractively bound in cloth, large 8-vo.
Price, $2.50 prepaid.
Your order will have our prompt attention.

TERMS OF SALE
All bids by mail. We have over twenty-live hundred customers who are interested in these sales. They live in every state of the union, and in some foreign countries. They can not all come to Freeport in person each month to attend an auction. In fact, not one per cent of them could do so. In fairness to those who live at a dis- tance, and cannot attend a sale in person, we request all bids to be sent in advance of the sale, by mail.
Coins will be bought below your bids where other offers permit, as this is competitive bidding, executed in good faith.
Where two or more bids are exactly the same on any lot, or tied, the lot is sold to the first bid received at exactly his bid.
No unlimited bids will be accepted from anyone, at this sale. Mark your highest limit or bid on the bid sheet, and we will buy as much under this price, as other actual bids permit. Get your bids in before the date of sale. Don’t wait until the last minute. Help us with our work and we will help you get something.
The usual charge of 5% will be made for executing your bids. No charge is made on anything not actually purchased. Postage and express is paid by the purchaser.
Receipted bills are not sent out after your remittance as this is unnecessary. Your check, draft or money order itself is a receipt. However, if a 3-cent stamp is enclosed we will send receipt.
Be certain that you bid on the lot you wish to buy. We will correct errors and adjust claims, but you should not expect us to pay for your mistakes. Be careful in making your bids. Be sure that you bid on the lot you wish to buy, and at so much per piece.
Bids must reach me by the morning of the sale. Mail them in time so as to avoid disappointment. At each sale some bids arrive too late to be executed.
Mails are in some cases slow these days of the war. Be pa- tient, and allow time for third and fourth class mail matter to reach you. Catalogues are often slow in delivery, and may not reach you at all. We will mail them very early, and try to get them to you in time. The price lists have to be set up and printed after the sale, and are mailed third class, usually about ten days after the sale date. Allow time extra for them to reach you, in these war days.
Between the seller and buyer, my position in describing the con-
3
dition of coins and bills has been neutral. My classifications are generally considered to be conservative by the collecting public.
It is easy to bid by mail. If you do not know how much to bid on any items, write me giving numbers in catalog and I shall be glad to inform you as to values. It is usless and a waste of time to make low bids that have no chance of success. I sincerely hope that each collector acquires some nice lots from this sale that give him a real thrill and joy of satisfaction.
New bidders or customers sending in bids for the first time must positively give first class reference, bank reference preferably, or else send a deposit of at least 25% of the total amount of bids. Otherwise, their bids will not be accepted; application of such de- posit will be made upon successful bids; the seller reserves the right to demand payment upon sucessful bids before delivery in his sole discretion. To those known to me who have established credit, a reference or deposit is not necessary and purchases will be sent out promptly after the sale. In appreciation of this courtesy the pur- chaser remits promptly.
The terms are prompt cash settlement after sale, and no time given. Collectors who are not certain that they can pay promptly, are asked not to bid. The coins in the sale are the property of my clients, and I must make prompt settlement for them.
Remit by money order, draft, check, or in any way most conve- nient. Stamps accepted for accounts that are below one dollar only.
All coins and other items are guaranteed genuine, unless other- wise stated.
Please bid by the piece unless stated to bid for the lot. Thus, if there are 12 pieces in a lot and you wish to pay $6 for the lot, then bid 50c. At each sale someone bids by the lot. Don't do this — bid by the piece. Exception — where stated to bid for lot.
NOTE — A printed list of all the prices realized at this sale will be sent for fifty cents (50c). Send coin or stamps with your bids so as to reserve a price list, or if you prefer, we will add the cost to your bill of items purchased for you at this sale. Keep posted on coin values as they are today, and order a price list in advance of the sale. After the sale they cost $1. Before, they are 50 cents.

157th SALE NOW IN PREPARATION
Our 157th auction sale of coins is now in preparation. Send us your collection or consignment now, or as soon as convenient, as we are always engaged in getting up a sale. Better prices are now being realized.
If your collection is large or valuable, write us first giving a general outline of what you have, and mention some of the best pieces. We are centrally located in the United States, and will make personal calls, when the owner desires an interview, or the collection warrants it. There is little delay until a sale is pre- pared and settlement after the sale is prompt.
We give the catalogue work a lot of time, do all our own cata- logue work, and you get the benefits of our long experience of thir- ty-six years a collector of coins and a dealer in them, and the satisfactory and successful conduct of one hundred fifty-five sales. Collections are safe in our hands, and you are insured against loss of any kind. Bank references furnished as to our financial relia- bility. We also have over 1,000 signed references and testimony ials from satisfied clients, which are open for inspection by collec- tors. ! -.-jr
DON’T FORGET that we also purchase collections or single coins for cash, and we pay as much as any other dealer, and more than most of them. ALSO REMEMBER, that we advance liberal cash amounts on collections placed in our hands for auction. The amount thus advanced, past experience has proven, has been in some cases, a larger sum than was offered for the same collection by others as a cash purchase.
AND LAST, BUT NOT LEAST, better order a price list of this sale, and see for yourself the good prices realized. The cost is only 50 cents, and this can be added to your auction bill after the sale. Please give us your order for a price list, however, before the sale, when you send in your bid sheet.
