In his latest, author and attorney Noles (Twenty-Three Minutes to Eternity: The Final Voyage of the Escort Carrier USS Liscome Bay) looks at the 50 State Quarters Program, which, over about ten years, has issued a quarter commemorating each state with a different design. Organized by issue date, each state quarter is given a few pages of background information, including the date of release, the number initially minted and the reasons behind its design. His work is full of information for both novice coin collectors and average Joes, and his otherwise dry account benefits occasionally from witty chapter subtitles and gentle mockery (Wisconsin's state motto, "Forward!", appears to be exhorting a cow head, ear of corn and cheese round "to move along"). While some may assume that there is little mystery behind the state quarters series, Noles finds much to inform, and occasionally startle, making each entry a quick, fulfilling slice of American history. 50 b&w photos |

“We are excited to celebrate The Simpsons on postage stamps,” said U.S. Postal Service Executive Director of Stamp Services David Failor. “Eyebrow-raising to say the least, this witty, well-written pop icon continues to irreverently satire its parody of a middle-class family as it lampoons American culture. The Simpsons stamps, which includes known philatelists Bart Simpson, will serve as a great opportunity to interest youngsters into stamp collecting.” |

Hong Kong, 8 April 2009 -- Sotheby’s five-day Spring sales series at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre concluded today, totalling HK$691,153,000/ US$88,609,000. The series, which had been expected to bring in excess of HK$600 million/ US$76.9 million, offered 1,805 lots comprising Wine, Modern and Contemporary Asian Art, Chinese Ceramics and Works of Art, Jewellery and Watches and solid prices were established across the board. The series was highlighted by the Company’s inaugural single-owner wine sale in Asia, which achieved triumphant results, the successful sale of eight Imperial treasures from a European Collection and particularly strong performances for Fine Chinese Paintings and 20th Century Chinese Art. The overall sold by lot rate for the series is 85%. |
Commenting on the series, Patti Wong, Chairman of Sotheby’s Asia, said: “Our Spring sales have given us many positive messages and clearly indicate that at this adjusted level, the Asian market is very active and strong for quality, attractively-priced works of art. In addition to the many new buyers from all over the world that we saw participating in our sales, we were also thrilled to see the return of many established collectors who recognise the value in the market today. It was exiting and satisfying to widen our selling categories this week with the introduction of regular wine sales in Hong Kong and the spectacular results for this sale are an affirmation of our decision to do this. This is a magnificent platform to move forward from in this area and we strive to serve our Asian clients better.” |

In 2009 Barbie celebrates her 50th birthday. During a holiday in Germany an American visitor Ruth Handler bought her daughter a doll called Bild-Lili . Back home the doll was a big success and Ruth decided to buy the rights and produce the dress-able doll in the States using the name of her daughter Barbara. In 1959 the first Barbie was for sale in the shops. In 1972 producer Mattel was close to bankruptcy, they continued to make dolls for a few more years, but the quality suffered.
Collector Armel Rood will exhibit her most exciting Barbie dolls from the period 1959-1972 including many extras she picked up like books, fan club memorabilia, dresses, a Barbie toy, a car and some of the first Barbie’s ever made.
On more stands you can see a demonstration of at least 20 old and almost forgotten crafts coming to life, like glass melting, mustard making, boat model making, hand knitting and many more. A real opportunity to experience these old techniques and the making of durable and collectable items
The Cruisebrothers club will show at least ten of their famous American cars from the fifties, and as well as the many dealers, there are also lots of special collections on view (and sale) like radio transmitters, Olympic Games memorabilia, old crafts man’s tools, French posters made by Picasso and book print equipment from the 19th and 20th centuries.

The daily bad tidings of economic crisis that continue to haunt the world in the media were far from visible at the World Money Fair in Berlin. 12,600 visitors – a slight increase on the previous year’s figures – came to the three-day event at the Estrel Hotel and Convention Center, Berlin.

Some experts in the coin market had expressed fears in the run-up to the fair that prices for high-end coins might drop slightly. Their fears proved to be unfounded. Virtually no other market is as healthy as the coin market! The historically still significant Polish gold ducat which was issued in 1658 to mark the liberation of the city of Torun was sold for 115,000 euros.

Issue of €2 commemorative coin
The Central Bank of Malta will be issuing its first €2 commemorative coin
on 5 January 2009. The coin commemorates the 10th anniversary of Economic
and Monetary Union. Each euro area country will be issuing a similar coin
bearing the same design but with the name of the country and the legend
‘EMU 1999-2009’ shown in the respective language. The Maltese euro coin
will have the legend ‘UEM 1999-2009’, where the letters UEM stand for
‘Unjoni Ekonomika u Monetarja’.
The deliberately primitive design of the coin symbolizes the euro as the
latest step in the long history of trade up to the formation of economic
and monetary union. It was created by George Stamatopoulos, a sculptor from
the minting department at the Bank of Greece.
The coin will be available for sale in rolls of 25 coins each at a price of
€57.75 per roll, inclusive of VAT.
Purchases can be made from the counters

Sydney, April 22, 2008 – “Remarkable results were witnessed this evening at Sotheby’s, when every major lot leapt above estimate and records were established for a number of Australia’s most famous artists. Our clients continue to compete for rare and important Australian works of art.“ said Georgina Pemberton, Head of Australian Paintings and one of the auctioneer’s of tonight’s auction. “Five artist records were established this evening including $1,008,000 Ethel Carrick Fox’s Market, Under Trees, more than doubling the artist’s existing record.

The most expensive and famous postage stamps of Switzerland
|
Reflecting the continuing strong market for rare stamps and postal history, and with dealers and exhibitors looking towards the major international exhibitions coming up, culminating with London 2010, our latest series of auctions, held April 1-5, 2008, totalled nearly 10 million Euro, averaging 30% over the estimates and with a very high percentage of lots sold.
|
Among the Europe and Colonies lots on offer, a section of France drew much interest and excellent results for covers with uncommon frankings or to unusual destinations, with results often reaching multiples of estimates. Overseas lots included strong coverage of a large Egypt section, while Persia rarities and inverted centres brought excellent results. British area lots, and particularly Great Britain proper, were offered in profusion. A session which included several hundred "Penny Blacks" in high quality drew intense bidding from the room as well as from those bidding via the internet, with lot after lot soaring to levels well above estimate. For example, a block of four of the 1d "Rainbow Trials," estimated at 5'000 Euro, brought 14'340 Euro - and this result was typical of the realisations throughout the session, with some "Penny Blacks" bringing 360 to 420 Euro each, and one from plate 11, matched with a "Penny Red" from the same plate and position, bringing 3’107 Euro.

Collecta has successfully come to an end!
On the first day we have taken the press and the visitors on the guided tour of the thematic exhibition Slovenika where the selected exhibits were exposed. The exhibition was prepared in collaboration with numerous experts from various fields. The tinplate containers dating from before the Second World War that were made by well-known and reputable Slovenian artists, Slovenian devotional pictures, and three-dimensional greeting cards were quite popular. However, most of the visitors were fascinated by the interesting and unusual collections built by Tone Simončič. He exhibited part of his collection of banana labels, cigar bands, sugar bags, stamps with crystals, Gibraltar sand and laces, and much more.
|
What is more, phone cards with the motifs of Slovenian castles and a number of military objects, the most popular among which were the combat badges used to award the direct contact with the enemy, were put on display. Miocene crab fossils from Tunjiško gričevje near Kamnik, fish fossils from various Slovene sites, flint, illustrations of Slovene minerals by illustrator Marija Nabernik, and the minerals from the Idrija Mercury Mine and the Lead and Zinc Mine of Mežica have occupied a special place in the framework of the thematic exhibition Slovenika.

LONDON, FEBRUARY 27th, 2008 – Sotheby’s Evening Sale of Contemporary Art achieved
£95,030,000 ($189,424,299), the highest total ever for any sale of Contemporary Art held in Europe,
against a pre-sale estimate of £72,025,000-£102,855,000. Records were set for six artists.
The top lot in tonight’s sale was Francis Bacon’s Study of Nude with Figure in a Mirror, 1969, a rare full-length portrait of the artist’s close friend Henrietta Moraes, which achieved £19,956,500 ($39,779,291) selling to a European private collector bidding on the telephone. This remarkable price follows last year’s record $52,680,000 (£26,581,895) for the artist at auction, achieved for Study From Innocent X at Sotheby’s New York in May 2007. The saleroom broke into applause when Gerhard Richter’s sublime Photo Painting Kerze (Candle), from 1983, sold for the spectacular price of £7,972,500 ($15,891,584) – more than three times its presale high estimate of £2,500,000. |
This remarkable price came after eleven bidders competed for the work. The result immediately followed another success for the artist, when Struktur (1979) achieved £4,612,500 ($9,194,096), after pursuit by eight bidders and gasps from the audience. A work widely regarded as one of Lucio Fontana’s masterpieces, Concetto Spaziale, La Fine di Dio dating from 1963, achieved a record £10,324,500 ($20,579,826) for a work by the artist at auction. The result was significantly in excess of its pre-sale low-estimate of £4,000,000. The egg-shaped canvas was one of only two gold works in this series. Pursued by five bidders, its price saw the saleroom once again erupt into applause. The phenomenal result saw Fontana become the second European Post War artist, after Francis Bacon, to break the £10 million barrier at auction. Three Self Portraits (1986) by Andy Warhol achieved £11,444,500 ($22,812,322). This rare trinity of canvases in the colours of the American flag, came from the artist’s only ever exhibition devoted to selfportraits, held at the Anthony d’Offay Gallery, London in 1986. In tonight's sale, Chinese Contemporary Art of the highest quality by some of the most important artists living and working in China today, achieved a total of £5,978,700 ($11,917,343). Zhang Xiaogang’s Big Family No. 1, executed in 2001 - by far the largest work by the artist to come to auction to date and the culmination of the artist’s ‘Bloodlines’ series - was the top selling lot of the section, selling for £1,700,500 ($3,389,607) against an estimate of £1,500,000-2,000,000. Other works in the section that also performed well include Comrades by Zhang Xiaogang, which commanded £1,140,500 ($2,273,359), Yan Pei-Ming's Silver Bruce Lee - the first image of the Kung Fu icon ever to appear at auction - which brought £692,500 ($1,380,360) and Fools in the Night by Yue Minjun, which sold for £916,500 ($1,826,859). |

MAGNA CARTA SAVED FOR AMERICA - THE MOST IMPORTANT DOCUMENT EVER OFFERED AT AUCTION SELLS FOR $21.3 MILLION TO AMERICAN, DAVID RUBENSTEIN NEW OWNER INTENDS TO EXHIBIT THE MANUSCRIPT AT THE NATIONAL ARCHIVES IN WASHINGTON New York, NY – December 18, 2007 – Tonight at Sotheby’s, in an overflowing salesroom, The Magna Carta was saved for America by David Rubenstein, who intends to place the document back on view at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. Mr. Rubenstein, who referred to the manuscript as a “beacon for freedom,” purchased the document this evening for $21,321,000. |
|
|
David Redden, a Vice Chairman of Sotheby’s and tonight’s auctioneer, said, “The most extraordinary document in the world was placed up for auction and the most perfect outcome was achieved.” Magna Carta is the royal document revered as the birth certificate of freedom. The iconic manuscript, dated 1297, is the original charter that enshrined the rights of man into English law, and inspired the passion for liberty that flowered in America in the 18th century and continues around the world today. It is the most famous single document in existence. Issued by King Edward I, and sealed by the king, this astonishing survivor was offered for sale by the Perot Foundation who purchased it from an English family in 1983. This medieval vellum manuscript is well-known to millions, having been on view with the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States at the National Archives in Washington, D.C. since arriving in America more than 22 years ago. |

EVENING SALE OF CONTEMPORARY ART IN
NEW YORK BRINGS $315,907,000,
ABOVE THE HIGH ESTIMATE
FRANCIS BACON’S SECOND VERSION OF STUDY FOR BULLFIGHT NO. 1, 1969, COMMANDS $45.9 MILLION
The cover lot of the sale, Jeff Koons’ spectacular Hanging Heart (Magenta and Gold), 1994-2006, one of the most important works by Koons ever offered at auction, sold to Gagosian Gallery to applause for $23,561,000, a record for the living artist at auction and also for the artist (lot 14, est. $15/20 million). previous record was for Damien Hirst’s pill cabinet, Lullaby Spring, which sold for $19.2 million at Sotheby’s London in June. The price almost reached the record for a Contemporary sculpture, currently held by David Smith’s Cubi XXVIII, which sold for $23.8 million at Sotheby’s New York in November 2005. |
The brilliant magenta heart and gold undulating bow, which took ten years from conception to completion, is one of five uniquely colored versions of this dazzling work from Koons’ famed Celebration series. The perfect surface is coated in more than ten layers of paint. Executed in high chromium stainless steel, Hanging Heart weighs over 3,500 pounds, is almost nine feet tall and took over 6,000 man hours to produce. The sale also featured two works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, including his large-scale canvas, Untitled (Electric Chair) from 1981-82, watershed years for the artist, which sold for $11,801,000 (lot 16, est. $8/10 million). Untitled (Electric Chair), offered by a Foundation, was selected and purchased prior to completion from Basquiat’s first dealer Annina Nosei Gallery, New York. The work went into the collection of a Foundation, where it has remained ever since; this is the first time the work appeared on the market since it was painted in the artist’s studio in the basement of the Nosei Gallery. Also offered by the same Foundation were works by post-war sculptors, including Donald Judd’s Untitled, 1977, which brought $7,433,000 (lot 26, est. $6/8 million) and John Chamberlain’s Big E, 1962, which achieved $4,633,000 (lot 11, est. $2/3 million), both records from the artist at auction. Another Untitled work by Basquiat from 1981, which depicted one of the most engaging and combative warrior-figure paintings of the artist’s early years, sold for $7,769,000 (lot 48, est. $7/9 million). Highlighting the 15 works included in the evening sale from a Distinguished Private Collection, which brought $33.4 million (est. $29.9/40.8 million), was Andy Warhol’s Self Portrait (Green Camouflage), 1986, from his last series of self-portraits, which sold for $12,361,000 (lot 47, est. $9/12 million). Other works featured from this offering include Ellsworth Kelly’s Spectrum VI, 1969, formerly from the collection of the curator of 20th century at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, Henry Geldzahler, and related to Spectrum V, currently in the Collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, which sold for $5,193,000, a record for the artist at auction (lot 23, est. $4.5/6 million). Alexander Calder’s Untitled, 1935, a rare early wood and wire sculpture, similar to those in the Collections of the Tate Modern and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, sold for $4,409,000 (lot 34, est. $2.5/3.5 million).
Other works by Andy Warhol which brought strong prices included his Campbell’s Soup Can (Pepper Pot), 1962, which sold for $8,441,000 (lot 41, est. $7/9 million). This classic pop painting combines
4
Warhol’s keen graphic sensibility with his use of an appropriated image in the manner of Jasper Johns’ flag and target paintings. This work was formerly in the collection of Emily and Burton Tremaine, who had one of the foremost collections of avant-garde and contemporary art on the East coast from the 1950s through early 1980s. Also by Warhol from his Death and Disaster series was Four Jackies, 1964, which achieved $5,641,000 (lot 13, est. $4/6 million), and Suicide, 1964, which brought $5,193,000 (lot 12, est. $3.5/4.5 million).

Dear collector,
on the occasion of the 675th anniversary of promotion Kremnica to a free royal town and establishment of Kremnica Mint was issued a set of silver replicas of Karol Robert's coins. Since by the production of coins were partially used original techniques - same as in the past, the coins differ in individual sizes and weights. The mentioned inaccuracies reflect the quality in which the coins used to be produced (hand made production, using hammer). We used silver (Ag 925/1000) as the material for production of coins, florins are gold plated. Dies were hand made by Kremnica's engraver Jan Alleram.
The replicas were made in limited edition of 250 pcs, with certificate.
Florén 21mm, 3.5 g, Groš SP 26mm, 3.4 g,Denár SP 16mm, 0.60 g
Obol SP 9mm, 0.30 g
We offer you the replicas of Karol Robert coins for a special price only 56 EUR.
Code of product: 671133
Closing date: Monday, March 26th, 2007 1700 h MEZ (11 a.m. US EAST)

Hi, About 6 months ago, Mapmuse.com began a project- the interactive mapping
of coin and stamp shops across the US. We initially researched and populated
these maps ourselves, with the idea in mind that the public would subsequently
add to, and enhance, the information we provided. We mapped each coin or stamp,
and provided space for a written description, photo, and link to a website.
Since this project was launched, coin and stamp enthusiasts have made hundreds
of additions and enhancements to our maps. If you were one of these contributers,
we'd like to thank you for your help!
If you know of any rock coin or stamp shops in your local community that are new
or have closed in the last six months, I am writing to ask that you make those
changes to the maps. Also, please feel free to add any shops or clubs that are
still missing.
The link to the Coin Shops Map is as follows:

The link for the Stamp Shops Map is:

If you have a coin or stamp related blog or website, a link or a mention would
be greatly appreciated. It is through links, and improving search results that
we are able to provide this service to consumers and businesses free of charge.

Dear Madam/Sir, In a sophisticated
burglary, the items described below were stolen from the manor house and museum
Saebygaard (Saeby, Denmark: http://www.saeby-museum.dk/Saebygard.htm) between 10
and 13 July 2004. Immediately after the theft, the local police informed
Interpol, but unfortunately the search has yielded no results. In the early
1990s, the Arenfeldt family donated Saebygaard and its furniture, paintings,
library and archive to a foundation to ensure its preservation for future
generations. Since 1682 Saebygaard remained in the same family and this degree
of continuity means that a unique and uniquely documented collection of
furniture and objects has developed there. As it will appear from the
description below, one of the stolen objects – a large wall mirror from the late
1600s, is thus known from the inventories compiled upon the death of Holger
Pachs in 1698 and had been at Saebygaard for more then three centuries when it
was stolen in July.
As a representative of the Arenfeldt-family, I would be most grateful if you
would circulate the information about the objects to your business contacts and
colleagues.
Photographs of the stolen objects can be seen on
http://www.politi.dk/hjaelppolitiet/Efterlysninger/120804_tyveri_P53/P53_kunsttyveri.htm
Should you come across one or more of the objects, please contact the local
police in Frederikshavn: Frederikshavn Politi, Department of Criminal
Investigation
Ph. no. + 45 9622 1448 E-mail:
frederikshavn-krim@politi.dk
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact
Frederikshavn Politi or myself.
Thank you for your time and help in this matter. Sincerely, Pernille Arenfeldt
Researcher, cand. mag. Pernille Arenfeldt
Dept. of History and Civilisation European University Institute Via dei
Roccettini 9 I-50016 San Domenico di Fiesole (FI)
Italy OR Saebygaardvej 60 DK-9300 Saeby Denmark
E-mail: pernille.arenfeldt@iue.it
Description of the stolen objects:
1. Wall mirror, second half of the 1600s. Large central mirror (93.5 x 69 cm)
framed by eight smaller rectangular mirrors and crowned by a symmetrical
entablature with elaborate decoration. The “frame” and “crown” of the mirror
have rich decoration of gilded lead ornaments. All mirror glasses are faceted
and original. Overall size: height: 167 cm / width 91 cm; mirror size 93.5 x 69
cm. The mirror is listed in a 1698 inventory of the furniture at Saebygaard. It
is registered as object no. 88 : 8 x 186 in the currently used inventory of the
museum. Although this number should appear on the object, it is likely that is
has been removed after the theft.
2. Large brass tray (described as silver tray on the webpage of the police but
is made of brass), second half of the 1800s. Scallop shaped edges, engravings of
leaves, humans figures dressed in Renaissance clothing and exotic figures.
