“This is simply unprecedented for Teletrade,” said president Ian Russell, “two million-dollar sales in the same month, and an overall record month for the entire 22-year history of the company. It is truly a testament to the direction of online auctions for Teletrade and for the industry as a whole, and I am thrilled to see Teletrade leading the way. Over $4.75 million in online coin and currency sales in a single month is just incredible.”

Russell attributes the success of the recent Friday auction to the exceptional selection of certified coins that were consigned, especially on the heels of the other million-dollar Teletrade auction on June 1, 2008. Auction 2536 was Teletrade’s highest grossing online auction of certified coins in the company’s 22-year history, which realized $1,124,253 and featured “The Green Holder Collection,” more than 250 coins in classic PCGS early generation holders that achieved 100 percent sell-through.

Additionally, Teletrade made a concerted effort to bring these impressive coins to the biggest buyers in the industry, including a five-state lot viewing trip spearheaded by Russell himself, along with lot viewing at the Summer FUN 2008 Convention in Palm Beach in the days prior to the auction. “These coins created their own buzz early on, and bringing them directly to the major buyers and enthusiasts was key to the overwhelming success of this auction.” Russell added.

California Fractional Gold has a storied history complete with touches of controversy that only adds to the mystique. The tiny small denomination gold pieces were privately issued during the California Gold Rush economy, hand-struck mostly by entrepreneurial San Francisco jewelers, as a result of the Federal government’s unwillingness to issue sufficient small denomination coinage.

“The Kovach Collection” is listed as the “3rd Finest Set of All Time” on the PCGS Set Registry, retired in June 2007, and Teletrade will auction more than 75 coins from the set in individual lots. The collection represents Period One, struck 1852-1856, and Period Two, struck 1859-1882.

“These tiny coins tell such an intriguing story of California and the Gold Rush, it’s easy to see why collectors of Fractional Gold find them so fascinating,” said Ian Russell, president of Teletrade. “This Registry Set is a tremendous accomplishment, and Teletrade is thrilled to be able to offer these coins to our customers. This collection is truly a part of numismatic history and California history, as well.”

Consignor Bill Kovach experienced his first California Fractional gold piece at the tender age of 10 at the coin counter in a downtown Detroit J.L. Hudsons department store. As his enthusiasm for collecting grew into his adult life, he purchased his first CalFract piece in the mid-1980s, a $1 coin, and from there expanded his collection to more than 150 prized pieces. He is now looking forward to sharing his collection with others of similar enthusiasm. “Now it’s time for other collectors to have and appreciate these historic gems that I’ve had the pleasure of treasuring for so long,” Kovach said.

Highlights of “The Kovach Collection” include:

• 1853 50C BG-302 “Peacock” Type MS-62 (PCGS)
• 1853 $1 BG-531 MS-63 (PCGS)
