[Mason & Co.] Thomas, M., & Sons. CATALOGUE OF THE VALUABLE COLLECTION OF COINS OF THE LATE JOSEPH J. MICKLEY... Nov. 5-6, 1878. 8vo, original printed wraps. (2), 55, (1) pages; 1093 lots. Folded for mailing; very good. Very scarce. Of this auction, issued several months after Mickley’s death, Frossard observed in Numisma: “To judge by the catalogue, compiled by E. Mason, Jr., this sale will be one of the most attractive of the season... The American series contain pieces for the purchase of which the most lively competition will take place, and the Numismatic books alone would have been worthy of a separate catalogue.” Not listed in Adams in 1982, but accorded number 17A in the 2001 Additions & Corrections.
