Heritage Auctions

Good Job. Keep doing auctions at major shows.
M.A.,  Fortson, GA

To get the most amount of money for your coins, you must go to an auction company such as Heritage. It really impressed me.

You have a great company. I have bid with your firm at least 11 years.

It's hard to believe that all my worries about our coin collection are really over. Many, many thanks for all you did to accomplish this. The check arrived and is safely banked.

As a consignor to your recent silver, art glass and fine art auction, I want you to know how pleased I am with my decision to consign with Heritage Auction Galleries. It was certainly a leap of faith for me to send my treasured Tiffany silver tea set off in the mail to you. However, I found that my faith was well placed when my set realized far more than the price that I was offered by a local dealer.

Please also extend my compliments to your cataloging and marketing staff. The catalog was truly beautiful, and I was indeed pleasantly surprised to find that my consignment graced the cover. I'm sure that I also benefited from the prominent placement of my tea set in some of your impressive print advertisements in various national publications.

At every stage of the consignment process, I was reassured by your product knowledge and professionalism. I appreciate all that you did to ensure that my consignment realized the highest possible price, and look forward to working with you again in the future.

Heritage Numismatics is a well organized operation, drawing the world's numismatic treasures together, cataloging, then offering them to the collecting public. I've been involved with collecting coins since 1957. It's great doing business with your company.
J.B.,  Port Deposit, MD

Dear Mr. Rohan:

On behalf of our client, Caroline Kennedy, I wish to thank you for all of your assistance in facilitating an appropriate resolution of the issues surrounding the John F. Kennedy, Jr. gloves. We appreciate your recognition of the legal and other concerns raised by the proposed auction of these gloves, and the professional way in which you made sure that those concerns were addressed before an auction proceeded.

Proceeding as you did not only avoided a potentially awkward legal situation for your gallery and any purchaser. It also facilitated the transfer of this historic personal item to the Kennedy Library, which all parties promptly recognized was where they belonged.

You and your gallery are to be commended for your professionalism and integrity in resolving this matter.

Sincerely,
Kevin T. Baine

When I began considering the sale of my collection of Mercury Dimes, I knew that many dealers would want to handle the transaction - after all, it was assembled with their astute help. Six different auction houses and dealers competed for the right to sell these wonderful coins. In the end, after careful investigation I chose the firm that I thought would do the best job and achieve the highest prices.

"My wisdom in selecting Heritage was confirmed by the unbelievable prices that you realized on my behalf 274% of Bluesheet, totaling $741,155. The results were astonishing - - Heritage sold my coins for double the most optimistic price that I had dreamed of!

Louis Bassano, New Jersey State Senate,  Union, NJ

The pre-sale publicity was more than I imagined, and the actual catalog better than I had expected - and my expectations were high! And on behalf of the MacDonald family, I must add that the results were also most gratifying. I must also mention the joy with which the family responded to your press releases, advertisements, catalog biography, and even your catalog descriptions. Your comments and presentation paid appropriate tribute to a great collector, and the catalog will stand as a lasting memorial to a great collection.

Jim Beasley, Tilden Coin Company,  Allamonte Springs, FL

I wanted to write this letter to thank you for the outstanding job that your firm and employees did in selling the seized coins for the Internal Revenue Service. When the coins went to sale, there were several hundred anxious bidders waiting to bid on these coins. The sale secured $156,290 for payment of delinquent tax liabilities. These proceeds are far in excess of any proceeds that would have been secured in a normal irs auction.

William Beckham, Revenue Officer,  Dallas, TX

My decision to go with Heritage was right on target. I truly appreciate the job Heritage did. The complete "end to end" service you provided me was simply unparalleled by anyone in the industry.

Jim & Steve treated me exceptionally fairly, even to the point of over-extending themselves on my behalf.
H.C.,  Huntington Beach, CA

This was my first time with your firm. I was pleased with all aspects of your handling my bids.
J.C.,  Albron, NC

I contacted Heritage Auction House about auctioning our Olin Travis painting "Lakeside" and our W.R. Thrasher bluebonnett painting. Heritage was so knowledgeable about our paintings and answered all of our questions. They were also very understanding and respectful of our situation and our need to sell our family treasures.

From the time that I took our paintings to Heritage she kept in contact with me either by e-mail or by phone. We were very honored that "Lakeside" was featured on the front of the auction catalog and the article about it was accurate and exceptional.
M. & P. C.,  Dallas, TX

My first auction experience and it was all I expected and then some. BRAVO.
M. C.,  Flower Mound, TX

I believe Heritage did a very good job of the cataloging. I am very pleased overall!

As a first time consignor, I was very pleased with my experience with Heritage from the first call to cashing the check!
X.C.,  Palo Alto, CA

The pre and post sales experience was wonderful and flawless. Heritage has the best in-house operation I have ever seen and their people are not only professional but fun to work with, especially Steve C.

As for Heritage's online system… Yes the interface is more complex than what we are used to with SAN but what is behind that interface is amazing for sellers and buyers alike. It is real time and for a real serious auction buyer there is nothing better in the auction industry, bar none.
Ron Cipolla,  AZ

Another super auction! As a consignor, I am very pleased with the results.
Russ Cochran

May I express my appreciation for the fine job you and Heritage did in the sale of my collection at last years A & A and fall Long Beach Shows. Though I was unable to personally attend either sale, I can say otherwise that execution was trouble free from initial viewing of the collection to delivery to wired funds settlement.

Hugh Courteol,  Palo Alto, CA

We have been very pleased with our decision to consign our extensive comic book collection to Heritage Auction Galleries. It was Heritage's promised professionalism that attracted us. We have not been disappointed… It's an exciting, slightly unnerving venture for us, but we are comforted that Heritage is running our show.
Cynthia Crippen,  NY



Your performance in handling auctions should be used as industry standards for other auction companies to rise to!
G.D.,  Albany, NY

Thank you for all of your help and professionalism. We met with Greg today, and sold most of our coin collection to him and your company, including our Stella. We are satisfied with what we received. We will be glad to do business with your company again in the near future and will recommend your company to our friends who collect coins.

From my experience, you conduct and operate the auction in a very professional manner. Your staff is understanding and courteous.

Recently, Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc. completed the sale of rare coins and gold bullion seized as a result of a dea investigation. I would like to take this opportunity to express dea's appreciation for the outstanding work and expertise your office provided in handling this sale. As you are well aware, the estimated direct sale value of these coins was placed at 1.7 million dollars. As a result of Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc., the coins actually brought in excess of 2 million dollars, a quarter of a million dollars in excess of the direct sale value. Needless to say, after working with you and your people and witnessing the sale firsthand, I have no doubt this success is attributable to your professionalism in the management and promotion of this valuable consignment.

When we were initially considering how best to liquidate these coins, we spoke to Lee Schaaf at the FDIC. Your expertise came highly recommended. Now I know why. The careful handling of the consignment, the energetic promotion to collectors and dealers through advertising and direct mail, the smooth organization of the sale and, of course, the stunning results stand as a testament that your reputation is well deserved. The next time another liquidation like this one comes along, I will certainly recommend Heritage Numismatic Auctions, Inc. with complete confidence. Thank you for a thoroughly diligent and professional job.

Thomas Dolan, Assistant Special Agent in Charge, Drug Enforcement Agency,  Denver, CO

What a great choice we made. The publicity your marketing generated was fabulous, and your internet system is beyond belief. Over half the coins had already met or exceeded our expectations before the floor session even started! At your Central States convention Signature auction itself, over a half-million dollars worth of our coins found new homes, shattering numerous price records in the process. Then, after the sale, you helped us even further, and now the entire collection has been dispersed. Perfectionists are never easy to please, and we're no exception. But frankly, we are thrilled.

I was impressed and encouraged by the thoughtful, low key presentation you made — frank, no sales talk and no big promises. You gave me several alternatives and explained the pros and cons of each. I concluded that you were someone I could trust and that you would do a good job for me. And you sure did!

Due completely to Heritage's thoroughly diligent and professional management and promotion of the collection, the faraday Collection stirred national attention among numismatists and the auction results brought a gross value greater than that last estimated by the experienced collector, David M. faraday. Moreover, Heritage identified a very rare coin from the faraday collection and featured it on the cover of the convention catalog. Later, that coin became the piece that brought the greatest “hammer price” and applause from the admiring audience. Furthermore, Heritage's additional promotion of major rare and quality pieces from the faraday Collection created supplementary recognition in the Coin World and The Numismatist trade publications.

I recently consigned a coin to the Heritage Signature Sale in Long Beach, California on September 23, 2005. I consigned my coin and worked with Sam Foose, Consignment Director. Sam was very helpful and understood my goals. I have worked with Sam in the past. He is a knowledgeable and great guy to work with. I can't say enough about the man.

The coin I consigned to the signature sale sold for over double the price of my reserve. When I heard the hammer price of the coin, I could not believe it!

I highly recommend Heritage Auctions, Inc. to anyone consigning coins. Their catalogues are superior in quality and design; the history of the consigned coins is excellent, interesting and informative and the Internet is very helpful! I feel Heritage Auction, Inc. has some of the best people in the industry working for the company, from the management down to those helping you view the coins.
B.G.,  La Handa, CA

Thank you so much for all the work and effort you put in the Hellinger material. It really showed. You did a wonderful job sorting and presenting the material, thank you. And thank you too for keeping us informed. You made us feel right at home.

Thank you for embracing us so warmly, we really had a lot of fun with you. Heritage helped us feel we served the memory of our uncle with respect for his life's work and Heritage reflected that respect. You make a great team and gave us all a most memorable experience. We hope to work with you again some time in the future.
C., A., L., & H. G.,  Northport, NY

Both my contacts were professional & courteous. I found it reassuring that your appraisal of my coin was realistic.
J.G.,  Red Rock, TX

Great coins, lovely catalogs, accurate description and grades (whether raw or slabbed). If you cannot view the coins personally, you can still bid with confidence, something you cannot say about all competitors.
M.G.,  New City, NY

Jim - Thanks very much for your email. You are runnning a first class organization at Heritage so make sure everyone keeps up the good work. When I do sell my collection I look forward to seeing it presented in a Heritage catalogue.
P.G.

Excellent company and auction presentations.
P.G.,  Pratt, KS

Excellent and informative catalogs. Impressive number of desirable lots.
R.G.,  Finksburg, MD

Heritage was thoroughly professional, and sensitive, in the handling of this portion of my collection. The coins were analyzed carefully, cataloged, photographed and presented; we discussed pre-sale estimates and probable prices realized. Those estimates accurately reflected the market, and I would have been happy to achieve them.
[Entire Letter]
David Ganz (Distinguished Past President of the American Numismatic Association),  New York, NY

I cannot thank you enough for the time you took examining and inventorying the widely diverse inventory. The fact that you sold it all" right down to the cheap bulk lots and modern and foreign, and weren't just interested in the best pieces, speaks volumes to Heritage's reputation as the best in numismatics. I might also add that the promotion of the sale was excellent, which was surely a contributing factor in the prices realized from the sale exceeding even your presale estimate by 10-15%."

You will never be ripped off, scammed, or knowingly sold fakes on Heritage's ongoing online coin auctions, and sometimes the deals are amazing! One of my favorite ways to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon is to cyber-cherrypick through Heritage's wonderful, clear, huge images, looking for the overlooked minor doubled die, repunched mintmark, or other variety. As if current auctions weren't enough, Heritage has a free online archive of more than a million coin images! You can do price research, grade comparisons, you name it (heck, I could almost write a whole article about the ways to use Heritage's Web site!).

I want you to know how much I appreciated the honor that all of your work bestowed on my father.

Dear Steve,

Special thanks for the handling the estate of my beloved grandfather, Jack L. Klausen. His passing was a confusing and challenging time. As you know, my grandfather had been a coin dealer for over 40 years. Fortunately, for us, he had planned to place his collection with Heritage in his remaining days.

From the consigning with Bob Merrill, the cataloging by Bob Korver, to the personal updates from you, I felt comfortable with the handling of such an important collection. The advertising was ample and the catalog descriptions from the legendary pioneer gold expert, Donald. H. Kagin, PhD, spoke volumes of the quality that Heritage had to offer.

The auction results exceeded our expectations and the settlement was prompt. I would not hesitate to use your services again or recommend them to someone else.

Sincerely,


Ken Klausen
For the Jack L. & Winifred Klausen Family Trust

Very thorough, almost scholarly. Very accurate and honest. Kept the catalog as a future reference volume.
M.L.,  Rosemont, IL

Thank you for the outstanding job you did selling my comic book art. You got me a price that exceeded my wildest dreams!! Who knew that something that has been sitting in a desk for over 20 years would be worth over $30,000? The level of expertise and professionalism from everyone on your staff from the very beginning to the end was exceptional.
Ed Lambert,  TX

Far as I'm concerned, the real superheroes are those great guys at Heritage. I really lucked out when I met 'em 'cause they got me prices that exceeded my wildest expectations, plus it was a real kick to work with them. I don't want this to sound like a TV commercial but, so help me Spidey, there's no one I'd rather entrust with my collection. Excelsior!
Stan Lee

We were comfortable through the whole process because of the friendly yet professional approach Heritage took, from shipping instructions to the contract… When we received the catalog featuring our strip, we were thrilled – it was a great way to keep a memory of something that had been in our family for years, and we found the rest of the catalog fascinating and well-written as well… The end result was more than worth it – even after Heritage's reasonable commission, we realized more than your estimate had been!
Jennifer Lindsay,  New Orleans

On behalf of our Central States Family, I wish to express our sincere appreciation for a great auction held at our 63rd Anniversary Convention in Columbus, Ohio, last week.

It has been a genuine pleasure to be associated with your excellent company. Best wishes for the future.

Total proceeds from the sale of my collection were only a few dollars short of equaling "Gray Sheet" ask! An amount significantly in excess of what a dealer would offer. In fact, even after commissions, the net proceeds were far more than I expect a dealer would have offered. As a result, I believe using Heritage was one of the smartest financial decisions I ever made.

Heritage did everything splendidly to ensure that the coins would bring the best prices possible in the public market. In spite of foreshortened deadlines, the full color promotional brochure was exemplary and the catalog a front-runner among all the coin auction catalogs we have ever seen. Both color and black and white photographs were of the highest clarity and descriptions (with certifications) well-complimented the plates to give potential buyers the best possible information to weigh their bids.

J.P.,  Euclid, OH

I'd just like to send my appreciation for the superb customer service I received from your employees at this weekend's show. I participated in the Bullet Auction on Saturday and your staff was most helpful and hospitable. On Friday, I had a collection to sell and availed myself of your free appraisal. Your staff was very helpful and gave pretty good insight. Unfortunately, I had promised someone that I would give him first crack at the collection and we had agreed to some preset parameters. Had I not given my word to that gentleman, I would have probably gone directly back to your tables and consigned them to Heritage. I've participated in several of your Internet auctions and bought some coins from Paul. He was great at followup. Lastly, I'd really like to send my apprecation to Marti in your credit department. I was not fully prepared when I showed up to auction and didn't have all the information I needed. She has been exceptionally helpful today in helping me get it straightened out. Just thought I'd let you know that your customer service is great.
M.P.

I was very pleased with the outcome of Friday's auction. I enjoyed watching the process on video and was very impressed with the mix of informality and professionalism; which I know takes years of practise.

You guys are very, very good.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend you to anybody else who may have something interesting to sell. I hope we can do business again in the future.

I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation for the outstanding work you have done in auctioning my comic book collection. We have been very satisfied with the results so far and look forward to continued success.

When I decided to liquidate my collection in order to be able to send my two daughters to college, I began to research how best to accomplish this task. Every other collector I spoke with had only good comments when it came to Heritage. After a year of exploring, it became obvious that your firm was the finest in its field.

Heritage examined the inventory list I had sent and had accepted it for auction in its entirety. Heritage has been incredibly helpful and patient with me and my many questions, and I owe him a great you of gratitude.

Your work has been incredibly helpful and informative.

I would be remiss if I did not express my thanks for the catalogue you sent me which contained my six books that were in the November Signature Auction held November 13-15, 2008. This beautiful book will allow my daughters and eventually their children to see what their grandfather did for a hobby. This really means a great deal to my wife and me.

In closing, I again want to thank everyone at Heritage. I have more books that I will consign when the books I previously sent have been auctioned off. I look forward to the future auctions of our comics. Continued success to everyone at Heritage and know that I am most appreciative of your greatest asset, your professionalism.

I have found that Heritage deserves its reputation for providing excellent customer service. One thing I really like about Heritage is the fact that you inspect the books for special value. Heritage has done an exceptional job at culling high-grade books from runs I send them, then forwarding those books to CGC for grading and slabbing. Frankly, the prices realized on some of these books are just this side of unbelievable. Heritage has done, and continues to do, a great job selling our collection. With thousands of comic books still in the garage, I look forward to continuing a great partnership – until our children graduate, or I finally run out of comics.

Thanks to Heritage I realized a handsome profit for my coin submissions and intend to send most of the remainder of my collection to Heritage Auction Galleries for future auctions.

Just one last thanks for your help with the $100 note from Brownwood, TX. The check arrived this morning. I really enjoyed surprising my mother-in-law. The look of astonishment on her face was worth any trouble I might have gone through. Some days are pretty good! :)

Excellent firm. Please keep up the professional work.

The coins arrived today. Thank you very much for the special service. You are one of the reasons Heritage is such a great company to work with. Very Special!

I thought the auction catalog I just received with the silver dollar collection was by far the best you ever put out. It is great as a reference manual as it contains tons of useful historical info on the series themselves. The graphics are original and excellent, and everything is in full color. did the consignor subsidize the cost of this publication? If not, why the special treatment... and how can you afford to show so few coins on a page and even the inexpensive ones in full color? Hopefully all of your future sales can look like this... the catalog rocks!!!

Your Black & White photos are the best in the business.

RE: 1943 Steel Cent. Thank you very much for your reply and more so for the history. My mother will be disappointed she does not have the rare coin but also interested in the history. It was just that report that you mentioned that got my mom so excited. Again, thank you for the reply and the education. You were not the only person I mailed, but you were the only answer I received, this speaks volumes for your character. Thank You So Much.

My impressions of the Heritage organization are as follows: professional, knowledgeable, commitment to get best marketing strategy, organized, informative, straightforward, adaptive to clients' needs. Really an effortless way to sell one's coins and still reap their current value.

Thank you for all that you did to make the auction sale of my silver and art glass consignment a tremendous success. From your initial evaluation, to the production of a stunning catalog, to the realization of prices well beyond my expectations, Heritage deserves high praise for a job well done.

During our initial meeting, your depth of knowledge and expertise inspired confidence, and made my decision to consign to Heritage an easy one. My confidence in Heritage was reaffirmed when I received the catalog in which my consignment was featured. The catalog cover was simply beautiful, the images of consigned items were of superb quality, and the auction lot descriptions clearly conveyed the important details of each item.

While I appreciated your professionalism and the quality of your catalog production, I was most pleased with the prices that my consigned items realized in your auction. Several highlights come to mind: a Gallé vase realized over $55,000, a tea set realized over $31,000, and a single silver spoon realized over $5,000! These prices greatly exceeded my expectations. I was extremely pleased with prices realized, to say the very least.

Once again, thanks to all at Heritage Auction Galleries for your excellent service, and most of all, for outstanding results.

Heritage produces astounding catalogs. Anyone who cannot easily bid in a Heritage auction, can't bid anywhere.

I received the catalog and was very impressed with its color illustrations, descriptions and attractive layout. (It has better production values than the New York houses.)

I would like to express my appreciation to you for your assistance in the sale of my coin collection which included the Lord St. Oswald, MS65, 1795 Half Dollar. Your guidance as to which coins to certify and then which coins to resubmit were certainly among the most important contributing factors to the strong prices realized for the collection.

Selling the White rose Collection was a once-in-a-lifetime experience for us. If/when you are considering selling your treasured collection, it would be in your best interest to consider Heritage. Heritage is truly nonpareil!!

You are excellent to do business with.
G.Z.,  Boca Raton, FL

Received your check for my small collection of certified Morgan dollars, and I must say that you exceeded my expectation. I had already decided on a minimum that I would accept, and the high end of what I had hoped for and your offer was more than my high end. Thank you, and I am sure we will do business again.
