Auction Details
We are once again pleased to conduct our auction, in conjunction with the 2014 Spring Toronto Coin Expo. In this auction we are featuring The George H. Thomson collection of pre-Confederation tokens, and the Lorne Barnes collection of pre-Confederation Nova Scotia tokens. The sale is complimented with selections from numerous other consignors rounding out another outstanding auction. We feel privileged to be given the opportunity to be entrusted with such treasures and thank our contributors who have placed their faith in us.
We can't wait to see you at the Toronto Reference Library, 789 Yonge Street, Toronto. Come and join us in person, or place your bids by phone/fax, email, or regular mail.
We look forward to helping you acquire the missing pieces of your collections.
The Cataloguers have taken every reasonable measure to ensure that all the lots are as described by Geoffrey Bell Auctions. Many of the lots are third party graded by PCGS, PMG, ICCS - We feel these are the most recognized grading companies in the industry.
