CONDITIONS OF SALE.

This is a bona-flde public sale, for prompt cash settlement, and irrespon- sible persons who are not sure whether they can pay for what they bid on, are asked not to bid. The cataloguer has taken special pains to describe each lot accurately. Errors will be corrected, but he reserves the sole right to de- cide upon any claims. These are only conditions under which bids will be received.

Coins and medals are sold at so much per PIECE, and no lot will be sep- arated. The auctioneer will accept any bid up to 5 0c., then 5c up to $2.50, when 10c. advance must be bid, up to $10.0 0, when no advance under 25 cents will be accepted. If there are 5 pieces in the lot and you wish to pay $5.00 for the entire lot, then bid $1.00.

Auction sales are strictly for cash. Parties unknown to me and bidding for the first time, must give bank or other reliable reference, or their bids will not be executed.

Forward your bids as early as possible, as thousands of bids have to be entered. Do not make ridiculously low bids, such as 10c. and 15c. on foreign silver coins worth several times over as bullion. Write your bids plainly, with a pen if practicable.

Where the number of pieces in a lot is not given after the description, there is but one piece in the lot.

Be sure you bid on the lot you wish to buy.

All coins, etc., are genuine unless otherwise described.

My charge for executing bids will be 5 per cent. No charge made for bidding except for lots actually purchased. Remit by money order or New York draft.

Priced catalogue of this sale sent for $1.00 cash in advance.

If any further information is required as to valuation of lots, or how to bid, please write the cataloguer. THOMAS L. ELDER.
