ABSENTEE BIDS

If you are unable to attend the auction in

person, and wish to place bids, you may give

Goldberg’s bid department instructions to

bid on your behalf. Our representatives will

try to purchase the lot for the lowest price

possible, and will not purchase the lot for

more than you indicate. This service is free

and confidential. Note: Ira & Larry Goldberg

Coins & Collectibles, Inc. offers this service

as a convenience to clients who are unable to

attend the sale in person, and although we will

make every effort, we will not be responsible

for error or failure to execute bids.

PLACING ABSENTEE BIDS

To place bids, please use the Absentee Bidder

Form provided in this catalog. Be sure to

accuratelyput the lot number and themaximum

price you are willing to pay on each lot. Always

indicate a top limit or the amount which you

would bid if you were attending the auction in

person. This amount should not include the

buyers commission noted in chapter 16 of the

“Terms and Conditions of sale”.

MAIL BIDS

When bidding by mail, you frequently

purchase lots for less than your maximum

bid. On the floor of the auction, bidding will

open at 5-10% above the second highest mail

bid: We act on your behalf as the highest mail

bidder. If the auctioneer recognizes no other

bids from the floor, you will be awarded the lot

at the opening bid. If bidding proceeds from

the floor, the company, acting as your agent,

bids in increments over the previous bid. This

process is continued until you are awarded the

lot or you are outbid by the floor.

LIMIT BIDDERS

If you have a “limit” that you must stay within

you must clearly notate this limit on your bid

sheet. We will buy your lots as inexpensively as

possible but will not exceed your “limit”.

“OR BIDS”

Alternative bids should be indicated by using

the word “OR” between the lot numbers. Then

if your bid on an early lot is successful, we will

not continue to bid on any other lots for you.

Or, if your early bids are unsuccessful, we will

continue to execute bids for alternative lots

until a bid is successful. Bids must always be

placed in the same order as the lot numbers

appear in the catalog.

TELEPHONE BIDS

Bids may be placed by telephone, but are

accepted only at Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins &

Collectibles, Inc. discretion and at the risk of the

telephone bidder.

We will not be responsible

for error or failure to notify the customer

in a timely manner during the auction.

The

telephone bidder must notify the company at

least 24 hours prior to auction all lots the bidder

is interested in bidding on. The telephone

bidder should have a preconceived idea of the

top limit that he/she would like to bid prior to

auction. In some instances, the representative

of the company will request this information

at the time of auction. This information assists

us in the bidding process by giving us a range

to stay active in the bidding. We will not notify

the auctioneer of your limit and will buy your

lot at the lowest price possible.
