Abe Kosoff: Dean of Numismatics

Appendix III

Abe Kosoff's Auction Catalogues

The following is a listing of catalogues issued by Abe Kosoff, individually and in several company styles. The early sales are numbered one through 83. It was Abe Kosoff's practice to assign a different "sale number" to each auction session. Thus, Sale No. 6 and No. 7, April 22-23, 1941, represent a single catalogue containing two sessions. Certain later sales were incorporated as part of the Numismatic Gallery Monthly and are so indicated. First is given the sale number (in instances in which this applies), the sale date, a brief title or description (where applicable), then the number of lots, the number of pages, and the dimensions in centimeters. Then follows a notation if the catalogue is illustrated or if the catalogue has pages of plates.

The author expresses appreciation to John Bergman for compiling the following list; also to Armand Champa, George Kolbe, Cal Wilson, and John W. Adams.
