Selections of gold coins from the Saddle Ridge Hoard are among the stars at the March 27 to 30 Whitman Coin & Collectibles Baltimore Expo, in Hall A at the Baltimore Convention Center.

Many of the finest coins from the hoard will be on display at the Kagin’s booth, No. 1612. The Tiburon, Calif., firm is the exclusive marketer for the hoard. 

Discovered by a couple while walking their dog, the hoard is valued by Kagin’s at more than $10 million and includes at least 14 of the finest known examples of U.S. gold coins.

The expo’s official auction, by Stack’s Bowers Galleries, will be held March 26 to 29. It will offer an array of American rarities, including a 1936 Nobel Peace Prize medal, as well as the return of the firm’s Rarities Night auction sessions.
