Auction Proceeds to Benefit Society
The 1715 Fleet Society is pleased to announce a new fundraising arrangement in conjunction with Sedwick & Associates LLC. With the cooperation of Sedwick & Associates, the Society will receive the proceeds of items consigned by the Society and sold through auctions sponsored by Sedwick Auctions. Here is how it will work.
The Society will solicit donations of quality items from members and friends who wish to support us in this regard. These items can be coins or artifacts which will be submitted to Sedwick Auctions for review. If the items are of sufficient quality and value for the auction they will be accepted and listed in the auction with a special designation indicating that proceeds from the sale of the item (hammer price) will benefit the Society. (NOTE: Sedwick Auctions have also agreed to waive the seller’s fee).
Thus far we have nine items available for purchase in the upcoming Sedwick Auction which will take place November 7-8, 2024. Two of these items were donated by Sedwick & Associates.
There may be some items that are not accepted for auction such as coins that are too modern or artifacts that are not of sufficient value. These items will be sold by the Fleet Society on a new auction platform that will be incorporated into our website as part of our website renovation. It is anticipated that we will have at least two auctions a year FOR MEMBERS ONLY. More about our auctions will be provided in a later post.
Getting funds to support our website, conferences, and educational outreach is critical to our ability to fulfill our educational mission. This project will go a long way in securing an ongoing stream of income that we so sorely need. We wish to thank Sedwick & Associates for their willingness to partner with us in this endeavor. They have always been great supporters, and their continued support means a lot to us.
