    LOT 312 LOT 429 LOT 430 LOT 439 PART Welcome to our first Live Auction for 2015! This Auction has a simply amazing selection of many really interesting and high quality items, and is also very special, as it marks our 30th Anniversary as IAG, and 30 years of Auctions from 1985 to date. While we record this sale as Sale number 82, before our “numbered” sales we ran monthly Numismatic Auctions for 10 years, along with Jewellery, Antiques, Collectables and Artwork sales, so our real number of Numismatic auctions would be in the hundreds, and double that for total Auctions! Over the years we have handled some amazing items, and still hold a number of record prices for sales (including the highest price ever achieved for any Australian Numismatic Item), and I think this Auction would sit proudly amongst anything we have ever done. We here at IAG are all looking forward to another 30 years! Please Note: We have moved all our main Auctions to a Saturday, as we feel this best fits in with our clients needs. Major Auctions will be held on a Saturday, whilst smaller, more frequent Online Auctions will be held on a Monday or Tuesday night. We are continuing to expand and improve our Online bidding experience. As the first major Auction house to hold Online sales, our success has seen them go from strength to strength. We are continuing to evolve our processes to make them even better, and more frequent, and appreciate any feedback in this process you might have. We also do NOT charge any extra fees to live bid Online as others now are.

With over 1200 Online members, this type of sale has now well and truly passed (for us anyway) to the online side with a vast majority, hence the timely switch in names. You might also notice there was no printed catalogue for this sale either. Time simply did not permit us this sale to do so, with printing and collation taking 10 days, and postage now (thanks Aus. Post) taking anything up to 10 day (several clients from the last sale reported this figure to us). This is our third sale in 7 weeks, so we have been flat out, especially with ALL the stock that came in for this sale! Hopefully the next Online Sale (OS 8 – yup, just like on your device) in December will have a fully printed cata- logue, in the meantime watch out for the amazing upcoming Sale 84 catalogue in early September! Get Online! We realize that some of our clients are still not online, however there are persuasive reasons to do so. You can easily browse the catalogue in PDF of Issuu (magazine format) and every lot with images from virtually any device, or even handy places such as your local public library! We will have the site more mobile friendly in the coming months, and even have plans to implement our own custom designed bidding App! Did you know about our two recent FLASH Sales?

    LOT 171 LOT 704 LOT 708 LOT 709 Welcome to our lucky Thirteenth Major ONLINE ONLY AUCTION! The huge volume of material we have received (1,120 lots) means we will again be running this live Online Only Sale over 2 nights! Note: Due to the Auction running over 2 nights, we will NOT be issuing final invoices until Friday the 3rd May, and will start posting lots from Monday the 6th. Be mindful also that many of the items will be large/heavy sized parcels, so please wait until we have checked your invoice and added the correct amount of postage to it. OS 13 is comprised of an excellent assortment of interesting and rare items from over 40 vendors (with sev- eral Estates). There are several good sized collections on offer, along with some excellent value rarities and a few high quality previously unsold lots (and one un-financial buyer’s re-runs – mostly small lots, mostly unreserved as per our Terms and Conditions). Highlights include a superb Proof 1938 Crown Pr 63, the highest graded with lovely fields and one of the finest known. Other fantastic highlights include a Type 12 Kookaburra Penny, a Proof 1934 Florin graded Pr 65+, a full set of PCGS graded Perth Copper proofs, an extremely well priced 1930 Penny starting at $14,000 and an aUNC USA $5 gold Half Eagle 1813.

    LOT 497 LOT 499 LOT 550 LOT 585 Welcome to our first Signature Auction for 2018! In this fabulous 830 lot auction we have some of the very best Banknotes that have been on offer in a long time! They present a great opportunity, as this market is becoming short of top quality material, with both prices and demand going up across the board! This auction has a fantastic and interesting lineup of material of every type and price range to suite any collector! The recent collapse of Mossgreen auctions again serves to highlight just how difficult it can be to be successful in the auction game, even with the high commission rates that they were charging. Whilst this won’t really impact the Numismatic market, we have heard from many of their unlucky vendors, some of whom even have to pay exorbitant fees to the administrators just to get their own items back! Queensland incidentally has the strictest Trust Account laws in the country, and these have been further tightened recently, meaning anyone who consigns with us is 100% safe, as their funds are protected at all times by our strict Qld specific Auction and Trust Account laws and procedures. Our recent slight increase in buyers premium is a reflection of just how much our operating costs have gone up (we estimate by 30% over the last 5 years). We are still the ONLY Auction house to charge NO Sellers Commissions! We have extended our insurance policy to cover eve- rything sent over $200 in value due to the recent loss of several parcels by Australia Post.
