M & G Auctions – McCawley & Grellman

Top notch cataloging, A-​1 for integrity. Chris and Bob know the market as well as anyone (and better than almost all) for the types of coins they specialize in (early American coinage, especially half cents, large cents, and colonial coins). And the market knows them, so as a buyer you’re assured that you know what you’re buying has been accurately attributed and described. As a seller, you know that the right buyers will see your coins and know enough about them to bid strongly. You can’t go wrong dealing with them.
DIsclaimer: I have done some work for them (calling auctions) but I’m not involved in cataloging or consignments. But before I worked for them, I had them sell some large cents for me and I was very pleased with their work.

Chris McCawley and Bob Grellman specialize in early copper coins. I am particulary interested in their annual auction for members of C4 and EAC that takes place in Boston in late fall/​early winter. This year they had their 13^th Annual C4 Convention Sale which was very sucessful. The sale consists of early american colonial coinage. There are very few sales that specialize in this area so I try to participate every year. The cataloging is very impressive for this area of numismatics. The cataloging has been done by Tom Rinaldo, who is very knowledgable in Colonial coinage.
