<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mlov43, post: 1723232, member: 16729&quot;]Hi Peggy.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t post often here at CT (I mostly look for topics related to S. Korean coins, and I post some of my updates to my S. Korea collection), but I saw your post, and I was reminded that I have a copy of &quot;World Coins&quot; (a monthly coin magazine published in Sidney, Ohio) from August 1971.&nbsp; I purchased this issue online as I noticed that it had an article on Korean struck coins (late 1800s to 1910) that has lots of good information on this topic.</p><p><br /></p><p>I notice that the magazine has LOTS of ads for coin shops and upcoming (in 1971) auctions.&nbsp; I don&#039;t notice the exact auction to which you were referring in this particular issue, but there are several LA and some San Francisco addresses for shows and shops.&nbsp; &nbsp; One of these is an ad for an auction of Mexican coins from the F.C.C. Boyd collection that was to take place in Oct-Nov of that year in San Francisco.&nbsp; The auction was called &quot;Pradeau-Bothamley&quot;, the &quot;Pradeau&quot; was Dr. A. F. Pradeau, who wrote a Spanish-language book on Mexican coins.&nbsp; Some of the coins from his book were for sale at this auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m just relating this to you, because, perhaps you could find these old back-issues of &quot;World Coins&quot; or similar publications at a university library.&nbsp; If you know the month and year you&#039;re looking for, I&#039;m pretty certain that it was advertised in this magazine, as these kind of auctions are exactly what you see in the magazine that I have.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will do some searching of my own.&nbsp; If I come up with anything, I&#039;ll let you know.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mark[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
