We are not responsible for any errors or failures to execute bids. For highly desired lots, bidding live is always the best way to secure your bids, whether in person or on the phone. If you have any questions or concerns regarding bidding, please contact us and we will guide you through the process and help you find the best method of bidding for your circumstance. By submitting these bids, I agree that I have read and will honor all terms and conditions of the sale. I have submitted all lot numbers and bid amounts correctly, and acknowledge that it is my responsibility to check the accuracy. I understand that a 25% bidder’s premium will be added to the hammer price on Americana, and 20.5% on numismatic items as outlined in the terms and conditions.
