Jeff Garrett talks about renowned numismatist Harry W. Bass Jr. and highlights some special pieces in the gallery housed at the American Numismatic Association's Money Museum.
Wow! Speechless. Thank you so much Jeff and ANA. So much history. Not only will I watch this again and again, I will definitely be making a trip to this museum. Very well made video and explained so well. Thank you very much.
As the video progressed Jeff kind of dancing around the story of the 1822 Half Eagle. But I was glad when he finally told us the story. What's hard to grasp is that one of the coin dealers he used to bid on the coin was actually bidding on coins for someone else also. I bet that Harry Bass never made that mistake again. If the only 1822 Half Eagle ever goes to auction again, 6-10 million would be very realistic. It's actually rarer than the 1933 Double Eagle. Great video Jeff. Thanks!
I believe it was bid up to 10 million a few years ago in 1 of the Pogue sales, but even at that price it failed to meet the reserve minimum so it did not sell. I'm guessing that Billionaire Dell Loy Hansen will try to buy it for his attempt to chase Eliasberg for a Complete Set of US Coins. He just bought an 1875 10 Eagle in AU50 last week at the Long Beach Show. He bought an 1894-S barber dime a few years ago. He has an 1884 1885 Trade Dollar. He has a Flowing and Coiled Stella $4. He has an 1804 Silver Dollar, He bought the Bruce Morland Collection of Seated US Silver Dollars which was the finest ever assembled. He has an almost complete set of $20 Gold Series except for the 1933 Double Eagle and maybe some Proofs. I believe he does have a 1907 Ultra High Relief St Gaudens. He has most of the Early Dollar Set, and Early $10 Eagles, I think he also has a complete set of almost every denomination from the small cent 2 cent 3 cent 5 cent quarter and half dollar all the way to present day. What he's missing is a of course some of the early 2 and 1/2 and half eagles, and also few of the Early American Copper Coins. He's going for every major variety in all series so he's missing many of those and he is also trying to get every proof that was every made he still needs a lot of the early Proof coins. I believe he's missing the 1792 Half Disme also. He needs an 1854-S Half Eagle and he will need the 1870-S $3 from Mr. Harry Bass's Collection here so that's kinda a big "if". Should be interesting to see if he can do it, he is close. His collection is listed in the PCGS Registry with pics of almost every coin. It's amazing to look at for sure.
A fantastic collection and a wonderful way to celebrate a mans efforts love for coins and lifes work . Its good that the coins are in the museum for people to learn and appreciate his efforts also it preserves the history. Oneday when i can afford it im booking a flight to america to for holiday to visit coin shops museums . I collect morgans and cents and it somethingi would like yo do. For now this will do . Thanks 👍
Thank you Jeff. I may never get to the museum but I feel like I've seen it now. On the other hand, it just could be worth a special trip from St. Louis.
Harry was a collectors collector. I remember the sales of his collection that didn't get sent here. It was a big deal and the coins that didn't end up here would be a collection of lifetime for most.
Hey i m israfil i m from Kolkata please reply my question one cent United States of America in god we trust 1989.next questions 1978 1999What will be the demand for it?
The Only Problem there's NO UNIQUE Popular Coin Out there ! a single Postage Stamp of QElizabeth worth 100 Million. Oh Yeah ! A Unique Coin is always Priceless because impossible to Counterfeit it.
Wooow absolutely stunning, this would be a true experience going there in real life to eatch this beautiful one of a kind collection all at the same spot. Why not showing different coins while the man ist talking, instead of showing only him. This video would be a lot more interesting watching if coins were shown thrue the doc
Are these Eliasberg coins that sold at the NY City auction still in the Bass Collection, or the coins ahve been resold and spread around the country to many different collectors? Are there any privately owned coins that are marked "Eliasberg" by PCGS and NGC while certifying the coin (I have seen amny Morgans marked "Eliasberg collection" at the PCGS label inside the coin slabs . Where are all these coins today? Aere the deplayed anywhetre where it's possible go watch them at some museum or gallery?
Victoria.britt reg.f.d silver coin 1811What will be the demand for it? And next question united states of america quarter dollar Liberty in god we trust 1994? Next question Liberty 1984.in god We trust united states of america e pluribus unum?

Big like number 381 my friend! Thank you so much for sharing! Excellent information!
An entire show on the 1804 & 1834 presentation pieces and their journey would make an epic video from Bowers book .
1804 Is Not Unique Coin ! Minted in Year 1835 if I am not Mistaken.
Great job Jeff. You are the best!
Excellent presentation. It is a great collection. Next time you are in Colorado Springs, check it out. Or watch this video.

Calm down buddy 11:09
Show the actual coins and clip the mic to your jacket not your tie.
Unlimited resources. I’m not impressed. Those who stash what they can afford have more meaningful collections
