This sale is an attempt at preserving one extraordinary collection and finding the individual who will appreciate them. I am not a precious metals dealer, but a retired warehouse worker. I bought them because I found them beautiful. I am selling them because of the recession. Unfortunately, due to necessity, they must go and go quickly.
