SNG Righetti vs Righetti Collection
« on: August 16, 2020, 01:49:47 pm »
A coin I recently purchased from the Plankenhorn Collection of Ionian Coins (Numismatik Naumann, Auction 91) was referenced in the catalog as "Righetti Collection 617" which I assumed was referring to SNG Righetti.  Now that I am cataloguing the coin for my collection I find that is not the case.  SNG Righetti coins from Ionia are numbers 832-934.  SNG Righetti 617 is a coin from Bithynia.  I did not own SNG Righetti prior to my purchase so was unable to check the reference.  My coin is not in SNG Righetti at all.

Was there a separate publication of "Righetti Collection"?  Or is this an auction catalog?

Here's my coin:

Thanks, Ralf.

So this entire auction was the Righetti Collection?  I see this coin was in Volume 4--how many volumes were there?
