JR Newsletter: 7 August 2016 (305)

The ANA Summer Show has likely already started for many JR Newsletter readers.  For others, the start of the show is a day or so away.  First contribution this week is a reminder (and some news) from David Perkins:

A reminder that the Kirk Gorman Collection of Capped Bust Dimes has a fixed price sale ongoing and a sealed bid seal to be conducted during the ANA (bids close Friday evening). 

Also, there is a HALF DIME sealed bid auction consisting of four LOGAN-McCLOSKEY PLATE COINS and a PCGS/CAC R-6 half dime.  The half dime auction closes on THURSDAY.  To learn more, contact David at wdperki(at)attglobal.net, or Phone 303-902-5366.  

For specific questions on the half dimes, you may also contact Richard Meaney at richard.meaney(at)yahoo.com (he wrote the catalog for the half dimes).
