<p>[QUOTE=&quot;mikenoodle, post: 2095659, member: 307&quot;]I think that you over-estimate the number of coins Meszack has sold, (I don&#039;t think they number in the millions) and that you underestimate the number of coins that Bowers has sold over the course of a career that spans almost 6 decades.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mike Meszack is nothing more than a carnival barker and much of what he says is exaggerated and often even dead wrong. I would never trust any accounting of what he&#039;s sold, especially if he&#039;s the one telling you the numbers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Of course from a quality standpoint, the stuff that Bowers has sold kicks the crap out of HSN&#039;s stuff, but I never said that they both sold coins of equal quality.</p><p><br /></p><p>Dave Bowers has run Bowers and Merena, Stack&#039;s-Bowers, and American Numismatic Rarities to name just 3 of his auction houses. And in the ANA auctions of the past two years alone, that has amounted to thousands of coins and millions of dollars from just that single venue.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
