As a special for anyone who views lots in Legend Auctions' Regency 30, PCGS will be set up Friday and Saturday, January 25 and 26 to accept submissions for grading. This will occur just prior to Legend Auctions' Regency 30 auction which will be held on Sunday, January 27.
Legend Auctions is promoting the 30th Regency Auction as its first "stand alone" auction, held at the Beverly Hills Marriott hotel (the former Crowne Plaza, site of many numismatic auctions over the years).
Beverly Hills Marriott
1150 S Beverly Drive
Los Angeles, CA 90035
Location: Bel Air room
"Everyone is accustomed to Regency Auctions being associated with the PCGS Members' Only shows," explains Julie Abrams, president of Legend Rare Coin Auctions. "This year, the first PCGS Members Only show is not scheduled until March and because of all the fantastic consignments we had received, we decided to conduct a standalone auction in January."

Lot 80: GEM 5C 1926-S from the Maybach Collection

Lot 274

Lot 411
All told, 491 lots from important holdings including the following collections:
- The Maybach Collection – A fresh to the market collection of Buffalo nickels, all graded MS65 by PCGS, and put together mostly 15-20 years ago by a dedicated specialist collector.
- The Formula 1 Collection – A partial set of some of the FINEST Barber half dollars known to collectors, all graded by PCGS. Featuring pedigrees like Norweb, Eliasberg, Price, Duckor, Akers, and Shireman, these coins will attract strong bidding.
- The Star City CAC Morgan Dollar Collection – A top-10 PCGS Registry Set of Morgan Dollars. Each coin was hand selected for a high-end luster, smooth cheek, and bold strike.
- The Sand Hill and Symphony Collections – Two collections of assorted type coins and gold that play off each other quite nicely. Clearly selected for strong eye appeal and quality, these coins will delight all collectors.
"It was such a privilege cataloging these great collections for the Regency Auction," stated Greg Cohen, Senior Numismatist. "Throughout the process, I feel like I have gotten to know the collectors personally—you learn a lot about them by looking at what they have chosen to place into their collections. After having cataloged the vast majority of the coins in the auction, I can say that each coin in these collections was carefully selected for eye appeal and quality."

"This numismatic offering is a great way to start out the year!" exclaimed Laura Sperber, the founder of LRCA. "This sale has more than double the pre-sale estimated value of any January Regency Auction we have conducted in the past. It shows how strong our auctions have become! We have worked very hard to grow our auctions into the premier boutique numismatic auction house in the United States. The amazing quality and diversity of the coins included in the sale further proves that."
