IRVINE, Calif. (December 27, 2011) – Stack’s Bowers Galleries announced today that it will auction the Battle Born Collection, which is only the second complete 111-piece set of Carson City coinage ever assembled. The only other complete set belonged to Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr., which was sold in three auctions over a 15-year span in 1982, 1996 and 1997. The Battle Born Collection is the only complete Carson City set to be sold during a single auction, making this an exceptional opportunity for rare coin enthusiasts. The collection will cross the block during the Rarities Night Auction at the Stack’s Bowers Galleries Official Auction of the ANA World’s Fair of Money in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The entire auction will take place August 1-11, 2012. The Battle Born Collection will be revealed in its entirety during a very special public viewing opportunity at the Stack’s Bowers Galleries table at the FUN Convention in Orlando, Florida, January 5-8, 2012.
