Boris O'Klein, "Chacun son tour"
Henry just wanted to install a urinal… but instead, he created a waterfall. Luckily, Marcel the handyman was there to say, ‘Better stick to what you know!’ And that’s exactly what Henry does – back in his office, buried under stacks of coin cases. But not all that glitters is gold! Some so-called ‘collector’s coins’ turn out to be simple bullion medals with no collectible value. And then there are those ultra-thin gold coins… thinner than your sandwich foil. ✨ Don’t fall for these traps! Our 77th auction on May 10th features real treasures! 1 Reichstaler Saxony 1594 – A beautifully detailed ‘Dreibrüdertaler’. 24 Mariengroschen 1745 – Featuring the famous ‘Wild Man’ design. 2/3 Taler from 1693 – A historical silver piece from Brunswick. Notgeld Westerland/Sylt 1920 – A fascinating piece of financial history! Don’t let coin shopping turn into a disaster! If in doubt, seek expert advice – like from us! Browse the catalog
6.2 million dollars for a banana at Sotheby’s? Hubert thought: Go bigger! and proudly presents his cucumber – exclusively displayed on our shop sign. ✨ Will it outshine Maurizio Cattelan’s masterpiece? Meanwhile, Henry steps in with a ‘Fragile’ sticker – because art deserves protection, right? Curious to see if Hubert’s cucumber becomes the next big thing in the art world? Watch now! And don’t worry: Tomorrow, November 23rd, our 76th auction offers affordable art and perfect Christmas gifts.
Why is Hubert using a microscope in the auction hall? Counting diamonds, of course! But watch out: When Henry drops by and distracts him, it’s easy to lose count… five rubies instead of six, or was it the other way around?! From a diamond clip pendant to a beetle brooch and an elegant Art Deco ring – these jewelry pieces are collector’s dreams and perfect Christmas gifts.
