Cogan, Edward. CATALOGUE OF A VERY RARE AND VALUABLE ASSORTMENT OF COINS AND MEDALS, IN GOLD, SILVER AND COPPER, THE PROPERTY OF E. HARRISON SANFORD, ESQ. New York, Nov. 27, 1874. 8vo, original printed wraps. 20 pages; 367 lots. Hand-priced in ink. Spine taped. Near fine. A small sale, but one featuring some important coins, and one whose 367 lots brought an impressive $2871.80 according to Attinelli, who contrasted the sale's results with those of the Strobridge sale the month before of the Middleton collection of ancient coins, which, despite being of excellent quality, brought weak prices in a market focused much more strongly on American coins. Adams 39 (A- overall, A in proofs and early silver). Attinelli 70.
