Heritage US Coins Important Selections from the Bob R. Simpson Collection, Part I
Description
Bob Simpson, a friend and valued client for over 20 years -- and who is part-owner of the Texas Rangers baseball team, a philanthropist, and a lifelong Texas energy executive -- is nothing short of a legendary figure in the rare coin hobby as well.
Mr. Simpson stands as a singularly astute numismatist. Heritage continues to be honored with the privilege to handle numerous selections from his incomparable collection, and the items offered here are no exception.
We are especially pleased to bring Important Selections From The Bob R. Simpson Collection, Part 1 to the numismatic community, and to Heritage's 1.25 million+ registered bidders. This initial offering features more than 300 lots spanning virtually all series, including spectacular examples of sought-after key varieties and rare dates. Each and every coin would be a highlight in any prestigious coin auction. To see them all gathered here is breathtaking, to say the least.
We note that this special presentation is only the first of several installments from the collection. Equally outstanding selections will follow in the upcoming months, all of which are destined not only to make numismatic history, but to strike a responsive chord with collectors of every discipline and specialty. The depth and diversity of Mr. Simpson's collection is truly remarkable, as all who are close to the hobby are well aware.
The list of rarities in Part 1 alone is something to behold. Our "Featured Lots" list of favorite coins will no doubt create debate among those viewing the catalog, who might replace our entire list with other top coins from the catalog, and not be far off the mark.
