Heritage Palm Beach Auction Realized $6.5 Million

Dallas, Texas: Heritage Auction Galleries held its most recent Signature Auction March 1-4, 2006 in Palm Beach, Florida. $6,593,229 was realized for 2,304 total lots, although after-auction sales are still ongoing. A separate OnLine Session, to be held Monday, March 6, 2006, is expected to raise the total even higher.

"This is a wonderful time to be a numismatist," said Greg Rohan, President of Heritage. "There's more great material in the market, realizing stronger prices, than ever before. 2006 is shaping up to be a great year, and I'm very much looking forward to our next Signature auction, to be held April 7-9, 2006 in Atlanta, GA as the official auctioneer of the American Numismatics Association's 2006 National Money Show."
