The series opens with the Williamsburg Currency Collection, a fresh-to-market assemblage featuring rarities such as obsolete banknotes, silver and gold certificates, fractional currency, and Confederate issues. Bidding is now underway and will close on Thursday, June 26.

It will be followed by the Kingsmill Colonial Currency Collection, a substantial offering of colonial-era notes set to close on Thursday, July 3. Both collections are now live and will be offered in consecutive Red Carpet Rarities sales.

DLRC’s proprietary website and inventory management platform, Showcase, launched two years ago and has since earned multiple honors, including "Best Numismatic Website" from the Numismatic Literary Guild (NLG). The firm continues to enhance the platform’s features and expand its capabilities.

"We’ve been looking to expand our offerings of currency for quite some time, and this collection really spurred us into focusing on the website development so that we can better highlight our offerings," said John Brush, president of DLRC. "While currency isn’t our main focus, we understand that it’s a part of the numismatic collecting heritage and we’re excited to offer our expertise to an even wider audience."

"With this latest update to our software, we’re also excited to begin licensing it to other dealers looking for a comprehensive solution for managing their business and online presence – and now, that includes working with currency dealers as well," Vice President Jason Smith added.

With its renewed focus on currency, DLRC is actively seeking consignments of additional paper money collections and plans to extend its signature "No Buyer’s Fees" model to currency offerings. Collectors interested in consigning individual notes, coins, or entire collections to DLRC’s weekly Thursday Red Carpet Rarities or Sunday Auctions – or in using the firm’s full suite of numismatic services – can contact the team by email at coins@davidlawrence.com or by phone at 800-776-0560.

Some misinformation has been posted on Coin News regarding the Authorized Bulk Purchase Program (ABPP) and mintages regarding the upcoming American Silver Eagle series with military privy marks.
 
Big Boys are going to be all in on the ASE military privy marks, starting Friday.

Cag: Thanks, as expected. There will be lots of unhappy flippers/collectors….

REB

Yep. I don’t understand why the Mint doesn’t sell this stuff according to demand. Why not let scarcity be determined by how many wanted the coin at the time of issue instead of jamming customers with arbitrary, phony limits on non-Congressionally approved coins?

One other thing – NO coin with a date before 2025 should still be for sale by the Mint.

Antonio

There’s no profit in that. It’s all about making money.

John Q. Coinage

Because SELLING & SELLOUT ASAP damn anyone is the USM guideline. Eventually, all will go to the APBs. Personally, it is disgustingly familiar and a virus some say the big boys help, no they profit, profiteer, get a cut off the top B4 plain old lemming collectors. Glad I’m out, besides the price and 100k no panacea for profits….of course whe @u hots $50, What flip for 120, 150, post eBay fees you a big LO$er

Breaking News!!! The U.S. Mint has lowered the household limit(HHL) for the 2025 250th Anniversary United States Army American Eagle One Ounce Silver Proof Coin to 1! Some people will be unhappy they can’t initially purchase to “flip”, however for those that collect, at least they now have a shot at getting at least 1 in order to keep their collections updated. If you want more than 1, you’d better be ready, 1st thing, once that HHL is lifted after 24hrs! Original press release stated: “Production is limited to 100,000 coins, and orders are limited to three coins per household… Read more »

Nice work Cali, you played a part in this.

Craig

One is all I really need or should I say want.

REB

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Cali. You’re the best! I feel like I’ve at least got a chance now to get it from the Mint. Before, there was little hope that I’d avoid the bulksters, flippers, bots, and scammers.

VinnieC

Thanks @Cali

John Q. Coinage

Excellent for all Cali….. too bad the olde FHG couldn’t be the same WITHOUT THE MIDDLEMEN PROFITEERS. The Mint did fine before APBs and could do without hem. Fire the. All the mother….

Another classic, cryptic, “Caghanger”! Where there are not many clues, leading to much speculation on what is implied when he says: “misinformation has been posted on Coin News regarding the Authorized Bulk Purchase Program (ABPP) and mintages”’ Then follows with: “Big Boys are going to be all in on the ASE military privy marks, starting Friday.” Granted the 10,000 coins were likely not enough to satisfy the insatiable appetite the ABPP’s, Dealers, TPG’s, have developed and been able to gorge themselves on, in regards to profits in the past. On slam dunk products, I’m sure they’d like to see 30… Read more »

On April 7, 2025 I posted:

“20%? Same percentage ? Big difference?
Over the weekend someone told me “I had $10 million in stocks and now I have $8 million.” 
Another person had $100k and now has $80k.
Same percentage. Big difference.”

Fast Forward to June 10, 2025…

Both people hit their All Time Highs in the market yesterday…

The ^ post is what a risk on trade looks like…

Antonio

Much like our retirements.

John Q. Coinage

I’m above where I was before 4-7. Actually higher $. Picked up that NVIDA and AMD <$100 time will tell. And, still getting $ from the Alibaba, Yahoo stock Imhad liquidated always back…

Rick

Good to hear JQ, and hopefully the Panicans, Chicken Littles, and Anti-Americans left their nest-eggs alone back in April. Hopefully they realize how Stunningly Stupid they sounded when they were spouting out phrases like “Genie Fleeing the Bottle”, “Pandora has left her Box”, “Ongoing Market Collapse”, “Calamity” – on & on. Talk about Scoring Self Goals. I like how DaveSWF handled that ridiculous Doom & Gloom Nonsense.

REB

There are two sides to this political talk. Care to take it to a political talk board, Rick?

Rick

Not at all, do those boards even exist? My comment was directed to those who didn’t panic (JQ, Craig, You) in regards to the expected fluctuations in the overvalued Indices. I also wanted to remind those that did panic (Kaiser & Major D), to realize how truly misguided they are/were when they Projected Doom & Gloom onto the rest of us at the time. There is a Political Agitator that has decided to come back and push a few buttons, and we all know who he/they are. Maybe he/they will realize that hate gets them nowhere. I like your current… Read more »

Craig

Rick, I never panic when an inevitable correction occurs in the market, I just take advantage of buying profitable companies on the cheap. I suspect you do the same. Unfortunately, I think so many talking heads spout ‘doom and gloom’ because they realise there is a large percentage of people willing to listen to them. Hell, some people I know thought I was crazy buying more NVDA below $100…yeah, crazy like a fox! The result of keeping calm during a maelstrom is more money to buy whatever your heart desires. Now if only I can get to the buy tab… Read more »

Highest since February 24. Up on the year 1-2%. Could go up. Could go down. That’s why diversification is the answer. Stocks, bonds, money markets, CDs, annuities, property, living within one’s means, and coins.

If all else fails, get a dog and/or a cat.

Rick

Here we go again.
