SANTA ANA, CA
.-Stacks Bowers Galleries will present the sale of the spectacular collection built by Utah businessman and Utah Jazz owner Larry H. Miller to be held on Thursday, December 17, 2020 at 4 PM ET.
Assembled quietly over many decades, the Larry H. Miller Collection comprises an astounding array of rarities that are found only in the most legendary cabinets in U.S. numismatics. Now being offered publicly for the first time by Stacks Bowers Galleries, the Miller Collection is sure to join the ranks of such revered names as Garrett, Norweb, Eliasberg, Pogue, and other luminaries.
Many great numismatic collections are assembled with tremendous showmanship and fanfare.
Others, however, are built quietly and with discretion, allowing the collector to appreciate the satisfaction of accomplishment and the joy of ownership. Often it is these cabinets that elicit the most excitement when they are presented to the market, as collectors compete enthusiastically to acquire newly re-discovered rarities.
Such is the case with the magnificent
Larry H. Miller Collection.
Acquiring coins discretely and off the radar of the collecting community, the late Larry H. Miller assembled a world-class cabinet that spans nearly the entire
Guide Book of United States Coins. The breadth and density of rarities included are hallmarks of only the most disciplined and passionate collectors; any individual segment of the Larry H. Miller Collection would be a major life accomplishment on its own.
