We have 2 auctions closing this week! A collectible coin auction, and an auction featuring contents from multiple Cape Ann Estates! And some other news you might find useful!
First things first!
The coin auction...
Unless you've been hiding under a bass rock, you've notices that silver is going bonkers! So we were more than jazzed to have a longtime customer agree to consign a nice collection of coins (mostly US silver) for a No-Reserve Auction.
Here are links to a couple of lots we feel are extremely under-bid at this time!
Okay, almost ANYTHING from the Civil War era is in demand, especially US coins, so why the lack of love for this one...
Since minting it's own money, nothing has been more closely associated with US patriotism than coins. so why is this Liberty coin set getting zero love? While it's not the most valuable lot in the auction, it's a great starter set!
But, whether you're a seasoned collector, or starting out, there's something in the auction for you!
Now taking requests! Remember when you rang up the oldies station and asked to have your favorite tune played on the radio? And they usually said they would if they could! Well, Cape Ann Auction is now taking requests in our comments section here! So let us know what you'd like to see in future auctions and we'll "play it" if we can!

Did you know this auction features an original Parker Perkins oil painting! For those of you not familiar with his work, Parker Perkins (1862-1942) was a self-taught Rockport MA school artist from Lowell, MA among his students was William Lester Stevens.
Fun fact: he loved kittens and would have up to 20 at a time!
Other notable lots in this auction:
Generally speaking, collectors love items from their area. We seen a lot of Twin Lights pop bottles, but the crates are pretty rare! What do you think lot #88 will sell for?
It don't mean a thing if it ain't got that bling.
Lot #1 is a stunning White Gold, Sapphire & Diamond Pave Ring.
