Big Guns Go for Big Bucks at Smythe Sales of Shipwreck Artifacts, Currency, Stock Certificates and Obsolete Notes
Manhattan, New York - November 13, 2007 – Over 5500 lots which included an intriguing mix of historical paper, currency, stock certificates and artifacts recovered from the 1784 shipwreck “El Cazador” were greeted by enthusiastic bidders at Smythe & Company. The one week, four auction, whirlwind of sales that ended November 1, realized a total hammer of $1,259,250.
Among the more noteworthy offerings were a pair of 18th century Spanish bronze breech loaded cannon. They were of typical form, measuring 39 1/2" in length and weighing 200 Lbs each. These canon were marked with the Bourbon arms of Charles III on their barrels. Each cannon realized $10925
“With four auctions closing in such a short period, it was a very busy week for us at Smythe.” said Mary Herzog, Vice President of R. M.
