Terms and conditions for buyers The following terms and conditions set forth the scope of your contract with Spink USA Inc (“Spink”), by which Spink contracts with you either as agent on behalf of the Seller or as principal if Spink is the Seller. You should read these conditions carefully.
1 DEFINITIONS
1.1 The following definitions apply to these terms and conditions: Auction Agent, Auctioneer, Spink, us or we means Spink USA Inc; Bidder and you means a person making, attempting to make or considering making a bid for a Lot including a Buyer; Buyer means the person who makes the highest bid for a Lot which is accepted by the Auctioneer and, if the person is acting as an agent, will be a reference to the agent’s principal only if Auction Agent has accepted the agency in writing; Buyer’s Premium means the charge payable by you as a percentage of the Hammer Price, at the rates set out in clause 5.1 below; Certificate of Authenticity means a certificate issued by an Expert Committee confirming the authenticity of a Lot; Commission Bid means an instruction from a Bidder to us to bid on their behalf at the Auction; Expert Committee means a committee of experts to whom a Lot may be sent for an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity in accordance with clause 3.4.3; Forgery means a Lot constituting an imitation originally conceived and executed as a whole with a fraudulent intention to deceive as to authorship, origin, age, period, culture or source where the correct description as to such matters is not reflected by the description in the catalogue and which at the date of the auction had a value materially less than it would have had if it had been in accordance with the description in the catalogue. Accordingly, no Lot shall be capable of being a Forgery by reason of any damage and/or restoration work of any kind (including re-enamelling); Hammer Price means the amount of the highest bid accepted by the Auctioneer in relation to a Lot; Lot means any item deposited with us for sale at auction and, in particular, the item or items described against any Lot number in any catalogue; Purchase Price means the Hammer Price plus Buyer’s premium and New York State and City tax, where applicable; Reserve means the amount below which we agree with the Seller that the Lot cannot be sold; Seller means the owner of the Lot being sold by us; Spink Group means Spink and Son Limited, its subsidiaries and associated companies. 1.2 By making a bid, Bidder acknowledges acceptance of these terms and conditions and agrees to be bound by them. 2 SPINK’S ROLE AS AGENT 2.1 This is a public auction and mail-bid sale held by Spink, which is a licensed and bonded auctioneer.
3.3 Your Responsibility 3.3.1 You are responsible for satisfying yourself as to the condition of the goods and the matters referred to in the catalogue description.
2.2 All sales undertaken by us either at auction or privately are undertaken either as agent on behalf of the Seller or, from time to time, as principal if we are the owner of the Lot. Please note that even if we are acting as agent on behalf of the Seller, rather than as principal, we may have a financial interest in the Lot.
3.4 Extensions – Stamps Only 3.4.1 If you wish to obtain an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity on any Lot (other than a mixed Lot or Lot containing undescribed stamps) you must notify us in writing not less than forty-eight hours before the time fixed for the commencement of the first session of the sale. If accepted by us, such request shall have the same effect as notice of an intention to question the genuineness or description of the Lot for the purposes of clause 5.10 (Refund in the case of Forgery) of these Terms and Conditions and the provisions of clause 5.10 (Refund in the case of Forgery) shall apply accordingly.
2.3 The contract for the sale of the Lot will be between you and the Seller. 3 BEFORE THE SALE 3.1 Examination of Goods 3.1.1 You are strongly advised to examine personally any goods in which you are interested, before the auction takes place. Condition reports are usually available on request. We provide no guarantee to you other than in relation to Forgeries, as set out in clause 5.10 of these Terms and Conditions. 3.1.2 All Bidders who have inspected the Lots prior to the auction will not be granted any return privileges, except for reasons of genuineness. It is presumed that all Floor Bidders have inspected the Lots prior to bidding. Therefore, Lots purchased by Floor Bidders are sold “AS IS” and may not be returned. Floor Bidders include those Bidders acting as agents for others. 3.1.3 Spink reserves the right to refuse to honour or reject any bid which, in its opinion, is not submitted in good faith, or, as the case dictates, is not supported by satisfactory references, as Spink, in its sole discretion, shall determine. Spink further reserves the right to ban any Bidder from participation in its sales for any reason deemed appropriate. 3.2 Catalogue Descriptions 3.2.1 Statements by us in the catalogue or condition report, or made orally or in writing elsewhere, regarding the authorship, origin, date, age, size, medium, attribution, genuineness, provenance, condition or estimated selling price of any Lot are merely statements of opinion, and are not to be relied on as statements of definitive fact. Catalogue and web illustrations are for guidance only, and should not be relied on either to determine the tone or colour of any item. No Lot shall be rejected on the grounds of inaccurate reproduction. No Lot illustrated in the catalogue and online shall be rejected on the grounds of cancellation, centering, margins, perforation or other characteristics apparent from the illustration. Estimates of the selling price should not be relied on as a statement that this price is either the price at which the Lot will sell or its value for any other purpose. 3.2.2 Many items are of an age or nature which precludes their being in perfect condition and some descriptions in the catalogue or given by way of condition report make reference to damage and/or restoration. We provide this information for guidance only and the absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others. 3.2.3 Other than as set out in clause 5.10, and in the absence of fraud, neither the Seller nor we, nor any of our employees or agents, are responsible for the correctness of any statement as to the authorship, origin, date, age, attribution, genuineness or provenance of any Lot nor for any other errors of description or for any faults or defects in any Lot. Every person interested should exercise and rely on his own judgment as to such matters.
3.4.2 Notice of a request for an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity must give the reason why such opinion is required and specify the identity of your proposed expert which will be subject to agreement by us. We reserve the right, at our discretion, to refuse a request for an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity including (without limitation) where the proposed expert is not known to us. 3.4.3 If we accept a request for an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity we will submit the Lot to the Expert Committee. You acknowledge and accept that the length of time taken by an Expert Committee to reach an opinion will vary depending on the circumstances and in any event is beyond our control. 3.4.4 We will not accept a request for an extension on account of condition. Any Lot described in the catalogue as having faults or defects may not be returned even if an expert opinion or Certificate of Authenticity cites other faults or defects not included in the catalogue description, other than in the case of a Forgery. 3.4.5 Should Spink accept a request for an extension under the foregoing provisions of this paragraph, the fact may be stated by the Auctioneer from the rostrum prior to the sale of the Lot. 3.4.6 It should be noted that any stamp accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity is sold on the basis of that certificate only and not on the basis of any other description or warranty as to authenticity. No request for an extension will be accepted on such a stamp and the return of such a stamp will not be accepted. 3.4.7 If you receive any correspondence from the Expert Committee in relation to the Lot, including but not limited to a Certificate of Authenticity, you must provide us with copies of such correspondence no later than seven (7) days after you receive such correspondence. 4 AT THE SALE 4.1 Refusal of Admission Our sales usually take place on our own premises or premises over which we have control for the sale, and we have the right, exercisable at our complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or attendance at an auction. 4.2 Registration Before Bidding You must complete and sign a registration form and provide identification before making a bid at auction. Please be aware that we usually require buyers to undergo a credit check. If you have not bid successfully with Spink in the past, or you are registering with us for the first time, we reserve the right to require a deposit of up to 50% of the amount you intend to spend. Such deposit will be deducted from your
invoice should you be successful. If you are unsuccessful at auction, your deposit will be returned by the same means it was paid to Spink. Some Lots may be designated, prior to the auction, as “Premium Lots”, which means a deposit may be required before placing a bid on the item for sale. Information will be posted on our website in such an event. 4.3 Bidding as Principal When making a bid (whether such bids are made in person or by way of telephone bids operated by Spink, commission or online or email bids), you will be deemed to be acting as principal and will be accepting personal liability, unless it has been agreed in writing, at the time of registration, that you are acting as agent on behalf of a third party buyer acceptable to us. 4.4 Commission Bids 4.4.1 If you give us instructions to bid on your behalf, by using the form provided in our catalogues, or via our website, we shall use reasonable endeavours to do so, provided these instructions are received not later than twenty-four hours before the auction. If we receive commission bids on a particular Lot for identical amounts, and at auction these bids are the highest bids for the Lot, it will be sold to the person whose bid was received first. Commission Bids are undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the sale, and the conduct of the auction may be such that we are unable to bid as requested. Since this is undertaken as a free service to prospective buyers on the terms stated, we cannot accept liability for making (or failing to make) a Commission Bid. You should therefore always attend personally if you wish to be certain of bidding. If we receive two Commission Bids for equal value for the same Lot, the Bid received first by us shall take precedence. 4.4.2. For all Commission Bids, you must supply your name and address, contact telephone number and email. You must also provide the Lot number and description of the Lot, the amount of your Bid and any other information requested in the Commission Bid Form or by us. It is your responsibility to provide the correct information and to ensure that we have received your Commission Bid. 4.4.3 If you submit a Commission Bid verbally (whether by telephone or otherwise), we shall not be responsible for any misunderstandings (by either us or our agent or you) in relation to your bid. All bids made in this way must be confirmed in writing by you before the Auction. 4.4.4 Bids will be executed for mail bidders at one advance over the next highest bid in competition with floor and/or internet bidders, until the maximum bid is executed for the mail bidder, or until the lot is sold. No buy or unlimited bids will be accepted. 4.5 On-line Bidding We offer internet services as a convenience to our clients. We will not be responsible for errors or failures to execute bids placed on the internet, including, without limitation, errors or failures caused by (i) a loss of internet connection by either party for whatever reason; (ii) a breakdown or problems with the online bidding software and/or (iii) a breakdown or problems with your internet connection, computer or system. Execution of on-line internet bids on www.spink.com and Spink Live is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the auction and we do not accept liability for failing to execute an online internet bid or for errors or omissions in connection with this activity. Buyers who acquire lots on the-saleroom.com will have a fee of 3% of the Hammer Price added to their invoice for using this facility. 4.6 Telephone Bids If you make arrangements with us not less than twenty-four hours before the sale, we shall use reasonable endeavours to contact you to enable you to participate in bidding by telephone, but in no circumstances will we be liable to either the Seller or you as a result of failure to do so. 4.7 Video Images At some auctions there will be a video screen. Mistakes may occur in its operation, and we cannot be liable to you regarding either the correspondence of the image to the Lot being sold or the quality of the image as a reproduction of the original. 4.8 Bidding Increments Bidding generally opens below the low estimate and advances in the following order although the Auctioneer may vary the bidding increments during the course of the auction. The normal bidding increments are: Up to $100 $100 to $300 $300 to $750 $750 to $1,500 $1,500 to $3,000 $3,000 to $7,500 $7,500 to $15,000 $15,000 to $30,000 $30,000 to $75,000 $75,000 to $150,000 $150,000 to $300,000 $300,000 and up
by $5 by $10 by $25 by $50 by $100 by $250 by $500 by $1,000 by $2,500 by $5,000 by $10,000 Auctioneer’s discretion
4.9 Bidding by Spink 4.9.1 We reserve the right to bid on Lots on the Seller’s behalf up to the amount of the Reserve (if any), which will never be above the low estimate printed in the auction catalogue. 4.9.2 The Spink Group reserves the right to bid on and purchase Lots as principal. 4.9.3 Spink reserves the right to bid on any Lot in the sale. Additionally, Spink may or may not have financial interest in any of the Lot(s) in the sale. 4.10 The Auctioneer’s Discretion 4.10.1 The Auctioneer has the right, to be exercised in good faith, to refuse any bid, to advance the bidding in such manner as he may decide, to withdraw or divide any Lot, and to combine any two or more Lots. Bidding shall be regulated by the Auctioneer. 4.10.2 The Auctioneer may reopen the bidding on a Lot under the following circumstances: (a) the Auctioneer has failed to execute correctly a mail bid; (b) a party purchasing the Lot on the floor has done so in error; (c) where a protest is made after the hammer has fallen but before bidding has commenced on the next Lot; (d) where the Auctioneer has determined that he/she has overlooked a party still bidding on the Lot but before the calling of the next Lot or (e) to effectuate a fair and reasonable resolution of any error or dispute. In the event of a dispute, the Auctioneer’s decision shall be final. 4.10.3 In the event of any dispute between Bidders, the Auctioneer may, at its sole discretion, immediately put the Lot up for sale again. The Auctioneer’s decision shall be final and binding upon all Bidders. 4.10.4 The Auctioneer reserves the right to postpone the sale by auction for a reasonable period of time as a result of any significant event which, in the sole discretion of the Auctioneer, makes it advisable to postpone the event. No prospective Bidder or prospective Buyer shall have recourse as a result of any postponement. 4.11 Successful Bid 4.11.1 The highest Bidder for each Lot shall be the Buyer. Subject to the provisions of Clause 4.10, the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest bid, provided always that such bid is higher than the Reserve (where applicable), and the conclusion of a contract for sale between you and the Seller. 4.12 Spink’s Own Material Auctioneer reserves the right to include in any auction its own material as well as material from affiliated or related companies, principals, officers or employees. Auctioneer may have direct or indirect interest in any of the Lots in the Auction and may collect commissions. 4.13 After Sale Arrangements If you enter into any private sale agreements for any Lot with the Seller within sixty days of the auction, we, as exclusive agents of the Seller reserve the right to charge you the applicable Buyer’s Premium in accordance with these terms and conditions, and the Seller a commission in accordance with the terms of the Seller’s agreement. 4.14 Return of Lot 4.14.1 All the Lots are sold as genuine. For the purpose of this sale, “genuine” is defined as not faked or forged and Spink will not knowingly sell any item that has been “repaired’, “restored”, “processed”, “cleaned”, “pressed” or “conserved” in any way without disclosure of such facts to the potential Buyer. 4.14.2 No Lots may be returned without a written request by the successful Bidder and the written approval of Spink. In the unlikely event of returning a Lot, Spink must receive notification of the Buyer’s intent within three (3) days of the Buyer’s receipt of the Lot. The following Lots may not be returned for any reason whatsoever: (a) Lots containing ten or more items; (b) Lots described as having faults or defects because of the faults described or any others, including lots described as “repaired”, “corroded”, “holed”, “whizzed”, or similar damage, except for non-authenticity; (c) illustrated Lots because of centering, margins, etc. or other factors shown in the illustrations; (d) Lots described “AS IS”, including third party graded coins or banknotes (i.e. PCGS, NGC, ANACS, ICG); (e) Lots valued primarily for the bullion content; (f) Lots examined by postal viewers; and (g) any philatelic extension Lot unless the conditions set forth in Item 3.4 above is complied with fully. Except for Lots placed on extension, as per the conditions of Item 3.4 above, no Lots may be returned for any reason whatsoever after thirty days from sale date. Late payment for purchase may, at Spink’s option, be considered just cause to revoke all return privileges. If any disputes arise regarding payment, authenticity, or description between the Bidder and Spink, Spink, at its sole discretion, may submit the disputed matter to binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association in New York, NY, to which the Bidder, by placing a bid and hereby accepting these terms and conditions of sale, agrees to be bound. 5 AFTER THE AUCTION 5.1 Buyer’s Premium and Other Charges In addition to the Hammer Price, a Buyer’s Premium equal to 20% of the successful bid price of each Lot up to and including $2,000.00 and 15 % of the excess bid price over $2,000.00, a fee of 3% on the Hammer Price total for using the-saleroom.com, and a
surcharge for paying by credit card will be added to each invoice. 5.2 Sales Tax All Lots are subject to applicable state and local taxes, unless appropriate resale certificates are on file with Spink. 5.3 Payment 5.3.1 You must provide us with your full name and permanent address and, if so requested, details of the bank from which any payments to us will be made. You must pay the full amount due (comprising the amounts set forth in Clause 5.1 above and any applicable New York State sales tax, unless the Lot is exempt) within seven days after the date of the sale. This applies even if you wish to export the Lot and an export licence is (or may be) required. 5.3.2 You will not acquire title to the Lot until all amounts due have been paid in full. This includes instances where special arrangements were made for release of the Lot prior to full settlement. 5.3.3 Spink reserves the right to await clearance of any check used for payment before delivery of any item and a $25.00 charge will be applied for any check that fails to clear. 5.3.4 All sales are strictly for cash, check and bank/wire transfer in United States dollars; however, Spink will only accept cash payments under $10,000.00. Spink offers clients the option of paying by credit card (Visa, MasterCard, and American Express only) in United States Dollars for a convenience charge of two-percent (2%) for Visa and MasterCard and four-percent (4%) for American Express, up to a total of $30,000.00. Credit card payments will only be accepted if (a) the purchase is made by the card holder, (b) any purchased items to be shipped are shipped to the cardholder’s verified billing address, (c) floor Bidders present their credit cards and (d) all returns are governed by the terms and conditions of the sale. Payment is due and payable immediately upon receipt of the auction invoice or, if payment is to be made at the auction site, simultaneously with receipt of the purchased items. 5.3.5 Payments should be made by the registered Buyer and not by third parties, unless it has been agreed at the time of registration that you are acting as an agent on behalf of a third party. 5.4 Notification We are not able to notify successful Bidders by telephone. While Invoices are sent out by mail after the auction we do not accept responsibility for notifying you of the result of your bid. You are requested to contact us by telephone or in person as soon as possible after the auction to obtain details of the outcome of your bids to avoid incurring charges for late payment. 5.5 Collection of Purchases 5.5.1 Unless specifically agreed to the contrary, we shall retain Lots purchased until all amounts due to us, or to the Spink Group, have been paid in full. Buyers will be required to pay for their Lot(s) when they wish to take possession of the same, which must be within seven days of the date of the sale, unless prior arrangements have been made with Spink. Without prior agreement, Lots will not be released until cleared funds are received with regard to payments made by check. 5.5.2 Unless we notify you to the contrary, items retained by us will be covered under our insurance policy, which is available for inspection at our offices, from the date of sale for a period of seven days or until the time of collection, whichever is sooner. The risk of loss for the lot purchased by you shall be entirely yours after the earliest of seven days from the date of sale or from the time of collection. 5.5.3 Our policy will not cover and we are unable to accept responsibility for damage caused by woodworm, changes in atmospheric conditions or acts of terrorism. 5.6 Packing and handling 5.6.1 We shall use all reasonable endeavours to take care when handling and packing a purchased Lot but remind you that after seven days from the date of sale or from the time of collection, whichever is sooner, the risk of loss with respect to the lot purchased by you is entirely yours. Our postage charges are set out in Clause 11 of these Terms and Conditions. 5.6.2 It is the responsibility of the Buyer to be aware of any import duties that may be incurred upon importation to the final destination. Spink will not accept return of any package in order to avoid these duties. The onus is also on the Buyer to be aware of any import restrictions that prohibit the importation of certain collectibles. Spink will not accept return of the Lot(s) if rejected for importation or if Buyer fails to pay appropriate import duties. Spink will not accept responsibility for Lot(s) seized or destroyed by any customs agencies. 5.6.3 Delivery of any Lot(s) to an address other than the invoiced address will be at Spink’s sole discretion. 5.7 Recommended Packers and Shippers 5.7.1 Shipping, handling and administration charges will be added to invoices for Lots delivered by mail. All Lots will be shipped via U.S. Express Mail to Post Office boxes, via Federal Express to street addresses, and via FedEx ground for bulky large lots (in the U.S. only). Buyer will be responsible for the total purchase price in the event of loss.
Spink is not responsible for the loss of any merchandise shipped outside the United States. Insurance of any items to be shipped outside the United States is solely the responsibility of the Buyer. It is also the responsibility of the Buyer to provide adequate insurance coverage for the items once they are in his/her possession. Unless the risk of loss has already shifted by virtue of the provisions of Clause 5.5.2, risk of loss shall be borne by the Buyer following shipment of the items and Spink assumes no liability for merchandise lost, stolen or damaged while in the possession of any shipper to whom merchandise has been delivered, nor for any FedEx shipment which is subject to a “signature release” on file with FedEx, or otherwise. 5.7.2 If required, our shipping department may arrange shipment as your agent. Although we may suggest carriers if specifically requested, our suggestions are made on the basis of our general experience of such parties in the past and we are not responsible to any person to whom we have made a recommendation for the acts or omissions of the third parties concerned. 5.8 Remedies for Non-Payment 5.8.1 If you fail to make payment within fifteen days of the payment date set out by your invoice, we shall be entitled to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies: 5.8.1.1 to charge interest at the rate of 1.5% per month compound interest, calculated on a daily basis, from the date the full amount is due; 5.8.1.2 to set off against any amounts which Spink or the Spink Group may owe you in any other transaction the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by you; 5.8.1.3 we may retain all or some of the Lot(s) purchased by you, or other property in the possession of Spink or the Spink Group, until you have paid all the amounts you owe us or the Spink Group, even if the unpaid amounts do not relate to those Lots or other property. Following fourteen days’ notice to you of the amount outstanding and remaining unpaid, Spink and the Spink Group shall have the right to arrange the sale of such Lot(s) or other property.

An O.B.E. aboard Badger With the escalations of the Second War, experienced Officers of the Great War were quickly re-engaged and employed in a plethora of essential training positions. From 15.3.1940 through February 1941 Heaton is recorded as Commanding Officer at H.M.S. Epping. The ship was inintially hired from the London and Eastern Railway in 1939, being re-fitted and deployed as a mine-sweeper depot ship. Its name was later adopted for the entire mine-sweeping base at Harwich, Essex. Heaton was awarded a Military Division O.B.E. in 1940, with reference made to his service aboard H.M.S. Badger, the base ship at Harwich. [Seedie’s Roll of Naval Honours refers]. He was invested at Buckingham Palace, 6.8.1940. Operation Neptune Advanced Captain in February 1941, Heaton was appointed Commanding Officer at H.M.S. Aggressive, the Coastal Forces Base located at Newhaven, East Sussex. Aggressive was founded in November 1941, and from September 1942 acted as the Base for the experimental 1st Steam Gun Boat Flotilla. A specialist Class, similar to that and developed alongside the Fairmile D torpedo (‘Gun Dog’), with nine vessels commissioned. The vessels of the 1st Steam Gun Boat Flotilla were commissioned in response to the urgent requirement for suitable vessels to track and hunt German E-Boats along the British Shores. With Heaton as Commanding Officer of Aggressive, the Flotilla was under the command of Lieutenant-Commander Peter Scott, C.H., C.B.E., only son of Captain Robert Scott, M.V.O. and himself a Bronze Medal winner at the 1936 Berlin Olympics in the O-Jolle dingy sailing class. The first fleet action for the vessels of Aggressive took place shortly after midnight on 19.6.1942 when SGB-7 and SGB-8, in convoy with the destroyer H.M.S. Albrighton encountered and engaged several E-Boats in the Baie-en-Seine. The action resulted in the sinking of SGB-7, and the realisation that the armour of the experimental vessels was inadequate for their purpose. Following the action and subsequent upgrading, SGB-5 Grey Owl was damaged whilst escorting landing craft during the Dieppe Raid, 19.8.1942. Aggressive was once again employed during Operation Neptune, 6.6.1944, for which Heaton was rewarded with a ‘Letter of Praise’ [ibid]

Starting at 4am we were subjected to a heavy bombardment lasting the entire day without intermission- by 6am all telephone communication was cut and it being impossible, owing to the heavy mist, to use the visual lamp- the only means of communication was by runner- an extremely difficult undertaking under the circumstances. At 9am it was reported to me that the enemy had broken through at Bullecourt on our right and I then manned Pelican Avenue to form defensive flank. After repeated attempts to get messages through to Battalion Headquarters i was finally re-inforced by 2 platoons from Reserve Company to help defend flank- in addition to which I also moved support platoon to this position- leaving only four men at Company Headquarters. At 5pm the enemy in overwhelming numbers broke through the flank and in danger of being entirely cut off, I made an attempt to get back to Battalion Headquarters but, owing to shattered state of [the] trench, I was overtaken and captured in the first wave of enemy storming troops.’

847 Thorne Mining and Refining Company Silver Ingot.
Undated, 2.51 ounces, .9998. Fine. Here is a small, well executed ingot from this rare source. The upper obverse bears the company imprint followed vertically as follows: MONETARY VALUE/ 3 DOLS. 23 CTS/ CONTAINS/ 2.51 OZS. TROY/ GOLD .000/ FINE SILVER .9998/ SERIAL No 224. Balanced shades of pale to medium grey bathe smooth, entirely defect-free surfaces. Though many experts claim that the ingots from this maker are a creation of the 1950’s (much the same as the Eagle Mining Company ingot offered above), there are references that place the origin of such bars to a Thorne Mining and Refining Company allegedly active in the 1890’s in the Eureka District of ArizonaPrescott (although the accuracy of these references has been highly questioned as of late, as there is no concrete reference material confirming the existence of a company bearing this name in any Prescott records of the period). It has been pointed out by ingot specialists such as Fred Holabird that the style of the bars from this maker lends itself to a later origin. Conversely, Holabird also points out that he has uncovered similarly named (though not exactly named) companies from the turn of the century that could bear a connection to these ingots. Further research is certainly warranted and it remains possible that an early origin for these bars is not out of the question. Regardless of the uncertainly regarding the time of manufacture, the importance and desirability of such ingots amongst collectors remains crystal clear. $500-1,000
848 Eagle Mining Company Silver Ingot. Undated, 5.83
ounces, .999 Fine. The left periphery of the circular Eagle Mining Company stamp is partially off the ingot at the lower obverse. The remaining obverse imprints reading vertically from the top are: 999/ FINE/ VALUE/ $7.52. The reverse bears stamps positioned longwise reading: NO.334/ OZS 5.83. Smooth and enjoying an excellent presentation. Although highly collectible, the ingots of The Eagle Mining Company are apparently rather modern. In fact, it is largely believed that the “Mining Company” reference attached by the producer of these ingots was no more than a marketing ploy used to garner additional demand from the avid collector base of such mining-related memorabilia (the .999 fineness of the bars also lends itself to that conclusion, as earlier mining bars are not the product of such refining). These bars seemed to surface in the very late 1960’s; the thought being that they were made for the silver bullion market that developed after the removal of specie from our coinage. Quite scarce and eagerly sought nonetheless. $500-1,000
849 An enigmatic silver ingot purportedly from Globe,
Arizona Undated, 5.55 ounces, .900 Fine. This curious ingot bears the following markings stamped longwise on the obverse: 5.55 OZS./ .100 COPPER/ .900 SILVER. A small ‘F’ is stamped just inside the right obverse border. Likewise, the reverse bears the following: GLOBE ARIZ/ 4 B MINE/ COIN FINE. The numeral ‘4’ is stamped into the right edge. The reverse displays considerable central roughness from the manufacturing process; otherwise the surfaces are largely smooth. Globe, Arizona remains an extremely active mining district to this day. More than likely, this bar is rather modern and was produced for sale to the bullion buyers circa 1960’s or later. We find no records of a similar bar being offered at auction, thus its scarcity is safe to assume. $150-250

[7] World War II’s most infamous camp currency, these notes were part of an elaborate sham by the Nazi propaganda machine to present a “model camp” in Theresienstadt for Red Cross inspection. They were designed in 1942 by Czech artist, poet and inmate Peter Kien, who later died at Auschwitz in 1944. Either Adolf Eichmann or Reinhard Heydrich, SS Reichprotecktor for Bohemia and Moravia objected to the design claiming the depiction of Moses looked “Aryan”. The design was sent back with orders for Kien to give Moses more stereotyped Semitic features. He modified Moses and the final design was engraved by Jindra Schmidt, a noted engraver of Czech banknotes, postage stamps and fiscal paper. $200-250

Five Halfpence. Aug. 11, 1802. No. 12542. In the name of Governor T. Hill. There was never an actual Fort Montague Bank. From 1770 to 1791, linen-weaver Thomas Hill and his son carved a home out of a limestone crag along the River Nidd in Knaresborough in North Yorkshire. Their curious dwelling resembled a fortification and was dubbed Fort Montague. It became a tourist attraction and Hill’s son, also named Thomas and as eccentric as his father, knighted himself and began printing “banknotes” for visitors. These notes were purely for fun, although some contemporary reprobates attempted to use them to deceive as evidenced by a warning issued by the Mayor’s Chamber, Newcastle in 1816 noting that swindlers at the Fair were passing off fictitious Fort Montague Bank notes as real.

Civil War nurse, founder (1881) and first president of the American Red Cross. ALS, 4to, 2 pages. Glen Echo. Jan.31, 1908. To Roscoe G. Wells, of the National First Aid Association, regarding how little money she is able to send him because of her own needs. “It was a great courtesy of yours to write me a letter all by yourself when your hands are so full. I am neither ignorant, nor unmindful of what ‘full hands’ nean, neither am I unmindful of the growth and progress of your work. The only dark feature about it, to me, is that I am able to help so little. There has been no lack of willingness or desire. Confidentially, this has not been an easy six months... It is the unexpected conditions & needs of others that cripple us most. Just this happened to me, one time last fall, and just at that moment you, dear fellow, needed a poor little one hundred dollars and I sent what I had...” A truly remarkable letter in that Miss Barton mentions what today’s Red Cross is all about - serving the “unexpected conditions and needs of others,” helping people devasted by flood, fires, hurricane or any other natural or man made disaster.

This is the first check signed by Brown that we can remember being offered for sale! A truly rare financial item. Called “Old Brown of Osawatomie,” Brown was obsessed with the idea of abolishing slavery by force. In revenge for a proslavery massacre at Lawrence, Kansas, Brown massacred five slavery adherents at Pottawatomie and made an heroic stand at Osawatomie against a raid by proslavery adherents from Missouri. He conceived a plan of establishing a new state as a refuge for negroes and base of operations for freeing slaves. Brown seized Harpers Ferry Arsenal, intending this action as a signal for a general insurrection of slaves. He was overpowered, convicted of treason, and hanged. Regarded by northern sympathizers as a martyr, he is celebrated in the marching song “John Brown’s Body”. Included are two images of John Brown. From the Collection of John Herzog. $500-750

1225 Chouteau, Pierre
(1758-1849). French Creole fur trader, merchant, and politician. Important autograph letter signed by Chouteau. In French, written in New York, September 20, 1842, to Kenneth McKenzie in St. Louis. In reference to McKenzie’s difficulties: “I would rather have tried to make even a bad arrangement ... instead of doing nothing .... The fate of the Company is already known to you & as there are people looking ... to amalgamate us into its fall, I need all the credit I can get here .. .I desire ... that between now and next Spring, that the Credit & the Paper of the House, will be as good, as desirable in Wall Street as it is in St. Louis ... For that one must sell & realize. Because my friend Crooks has left me in the direst circumstances.” “All my attempts at borrowing against your properties have been useless ... After the awkward situation in which I found myself on behalf of the Company I had made a heartfelt promise to myself never again to endorse ... You are probably the only person for whom I would ... “ “Sales in London ... are, in general, quite satisfactory, but the beaver has done terribly ... I dare not make a prediction about the price of (buffalo) robes. At least one third of the firms have folded ... The losses on the sales of robes since 1837 have been enormous.” At the time of this letter, Chouteau owned the Western Department of the American Fur Co., and Ramsay Crooks the Northern Department. The business depression of 1837 had caused difficulty across the nation and soon after interest in beaver pelts declined. The great days of the fur trade had gone for good, and here we see Chouteau and McKenzie trying to survive the crash. Chouteau did well enough to later invest in railroads.

Seeking to save his client, Ney’s lawyer Dupin argued that Ney was now Prussian and could not be tried by a French court for treason. Ney confounded his lawyer’s argument in mid-stream, declaring “I am French and I will remain French”. He was condemned and executed by firing squad on December 15, 1815 - an act that deeply divided the French public. Ney refused a blindfold and was allowed to give the order to fire. He was reported to have said to the firing squad: “Soldiers, when I give the command to fire, fire straight at my heart. Wait for the order. It will be my last to you. I protest against my condemnation. I have fought a hundred battles for France, and not one against her...Soldiers, Fire”. Document Signed “Ney”.

His antiunion management policies resulted in violent clashes between privately hired Pinkerton agents, and workers at the Homestead Works of the Carnegie Steel Company in July of 1892. A few weeks later, an assassin burst into Frick’s office, shot him twice, and stabbed him repeatedly. Frick survived the assassination attempt. He was a major patron of the arts, and upon his death in 1919 bequethed his extensive collection of old master paintings and fine furniture to create the celebrated Frick Collection and art museum. Frick’s signature on stocks and bonds is rarely seen. This example can be traced directly to the Penn Central archives. Cox reports only one Chartiers Railway signed by Frick. $1,000-1,500

Rare Antebellum Oil of 2nd Lt. N.H. McLean
1453 McLean, Nathaniel H. Rare antebellum Oil Painting of 2nd Lieutenant Nathaniel H. McLean. American School, oil on
board, ca. late 1840s or early 1850s, artist unidentified. Contained under glass, in a period gilt wooden frame with decorative gilt-metal inner matte stamped “Webster” [the artist?]. 9 3/4 x 11 3/4” framed. A magnificent, almost photographic depiction of the bushy redheaded, blue-eyed young man posed in his deep navy military uniform, crisp white shirt, with golden accents to his buttons and shoulder bars. He is placed against a warm autumnal background, and is leaning on a table covered with a cranberry cloth. A superb example of antebellum military portraiture. In very good condition. McLean graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in July of 1848, 27th in his class. He became a brevet 2nd Lieutenant in the 7th Infantry and served on the frontier in Missouri and California. In March of 1849, he attained the rank of 2nd Lieutenant in the 2nd Infantry. Promoted to 1st Lieutenant in January 1853. In May, 1861, he was brevetted Captain Assistant Adjutant General, then full Captain. In 1862 he was promoted to Major Assistant Adjutant General. In 1863 he was commanded by Ambrose E. Burnside to investigate irregularities in the returns of the purchasing and disbursing office headed by Captain F. W. Hunt. McLean found evidence of a scheme to defraud the government of over one million dollars, but the whole affair was swept under the rug by Secretary of War Stanton. McLean resigned. In 1874, the House Committee on Military Affairs reviewed the evidence and vindicated McLean. This fine painting with an engaging military history should be displayed and enjoyed. $1,500-3,000
