Numismaster
More than $14 million in coins will be put on the auction block by Ira and Larry Goldberg Sept. 23-26 at their pre-Long Beach auction.
Topping the list of desirable coins is a collection of Saint-Gaudens $20 gold pieces assembled by Dr. Robert Hesselgesser.
The collection is called one of the finest graded sets in existence by Larry Goldberg. Among the coins featured in the 1907-1932 set is a 1921 grading MS-65 by the Professional Coin Grading Service.
The catalog says it has “nice light even golden toning on both sides. Near perfect fields. A beautiful well struck coin. And a key date for this series, lest it be forgotten.” Also noted by the cataloger is that similar examples have sold for $1 million. Mintage was 528,500 pieces.
