Brail, 1910-1992 Mr. Max Brail, a lifetime collector with a keen passion and enthusiasm for his collecting, often demonstrated through his openness in sharing his achievements and knowledge through his many presentations, exhibitions and writings at various exhibitions and local shows. He began his life in 1910 in a small Michigan town known as Greenville. As a young man he located to Jackson, Michigan and worked in the dry-cleaning business as a driver and salesman. In a few short years he would own his own dry-clean- ing operation. In 1937 he married Lucille and she would accompany him on most of his numismatic journeys throughout their lifetime. With his success in business, he built and leased a McDonald’s in Jackson. In the late 1920s he began actively collecting United States coins purchasing items he desired from the Chapman Brothers, B. Max Mehl, Albert Grinnell and other well-known dealers, and auction houses as well as U.S. commemoratives directly from the issuing authorities. During this time his primary collecting interest was United States coinage and Michigan National Bank Notes. During 1944, at the age of 34, Max became life member No. 92 in the American Numismatic Association; twenty-three years later he would be given the same life membership number in the Canadian Numismatic Association. Throughout the decades he would serve on the boards of numerous regional, state and local clubs and organizations.

  • Toronto Coin Expo Spring Sale May 3Rd & 4Th, 2018
    G eoffrey B ell A u c t i o n s Toronto Coin Expo Spring Sale May 3rd & 4th, 2018 Proofs & Specimens Two types of notes that are often confusing to collectors, even seasoned ones, are proof and specimen issues. A proof note is fairly easy to identify, but many are unsure of the reason for their existence. Such banknotes are usually printed on thin India paper, often backed with card stock. They can also be printed right on the card. They will commonly lack any serial number and may sometimes have “specimen” on them. In addition to these characteristics, they are easily spotted because they are usually only printed on one side. A proof note was used to sample or test the printing plates before they were put into use. Specimen banknotes, often confused with proofs, were used to familiarize bank employees, among others, with new notes. They are normally printed, front and back, with the same banknote paper that will be used for circulated notes, making them very similar to regular issues. The word “specimen” will usually appear stamped somewhere on the note, such as the on signature line, or sheet numbering area, or they may be punch cancelled. They will lack manuscript signatures and serial numbers will commonly, but not always, be all zeroes. We have a large offering for your consideration. Brian G eoffrey B ell A u c t i o n s The Bram & Bluma Appel Salon, Toronto Reference Library, Toronto, Ontario Lot viewing will take place May 3rd & 4th, 9:30am – 4:30pm EDT We are proud and excited to conduct our auction in conjunction with the 2018 Spring Toronto Coin Expo.
