Fifth Sale Nets Over $21 Million for 232 Coins
Setting a new world
record for the most valuable numismatic cabinet ever sold, and perhaps a new
world record for any holding of collectibles in any field, the D. Brent Pogue
Collection netted total sales of $106,720,432.25 over the course of five
auction events held from 2015 to 2017. Pogue V yielded sales of $21,402,213.75,
highlighted by the Dexter specimen of the legendary 1804 dollar, which brought
just under $3.3 million. The Pogue Collection, assembled by father and son Mack
and Brent Pogue over the course of more than three decades, focused on the
highest quality United States coins dated from 1793 to 1840.
