Chris Napolitano
President
A collector since childhood, Chris Napolitano joined Stack’s Bowers Galleries in December 2010 following an extremely
successful career as the founder, president and CEO of Summit Rare Coins, Inc. With more than two decades of industry
experience, Chris has handled in excess of $250 million in rare coins, including 80 of the coins featured in the popular numis-
matic reference book by Jeff Garrett, 100 Greatest U.S. Coins, along with many notable pedigrees. His numismatic knowledge
is virtually unsurpassed, and he is happy to make himself available to consignors to discuss auction opportunities for their
numismatic rarities and collections.
Q. David Bowers
Chairman Emeritus
Perhaps the best-known and most noteworthy numismatist of the last 50 years, Q. David Bowers’ work with rare coins is so
voluminous and so extraordinary that he was named by COINAge magazine as one of the “Numismatists of the Century,”
among a multitude of awards and honors. During his illustrious career, he has catalogued and sold at public auction many of
the finest and most valuable and important collections ever assembled. They include the Louis E. Eliasberg, Sr. Collection; the
Harry W. Bass Jr. Collection; the Ambassador and Mrs. R. Henry Norweb Collection; the John Work Garrett Collection sold by
order of The Johns Hopkins University; the Childs Collection; and myriad others.
Richard Ponterio
Executive Vice President
Richard Ponterio began collecting coins as a young boy at the age of 10. His interests first peaked in numismatics while work-
ing for his uncle who owned a vending machine company. During the summer, Rick would accompany his uncle along his
route, re-stocking the machines and collecting the coins which had been deposited. At the end of each day, the two of them
would search through the coins for dates and varieties they needed for their collections. In 1972 he decided to make numis-
matics his full time profession. From 1974-1982 he helped co-found the firm Ponterio & Wyatt, conducting mail bid auctions,
price lists, and attending major coin shows. In 1982 he formed the company Ponterio & Associates which was accepted in to
the I.A.P.N. (International Association of Professional Numismatists) in 1988, and served on the executive committee of the
I.A.P.N. for eight years. He joined the P.N.G. (Professional Numismatists Guild) in 1979, and served on its board of directors for
six years. He is an ANA life member and is the president of the New York International Numismatic Convention.
Christine Karstedt
Executive Vice President of Consignments
Christine Karstedt serves as executive vice president of consignments. A familiar figure at numismatic conventions and auctions
for over two decades, Chris has built a vast network of auction contacts during her extensive career. She is well known at the
podium, as a licensed auctioneer and also as a speaker for numismatic programs. Chris’ ability to attract worldwide attention to
the sale of numismatic material placed her at the center of the publicity program for the record-breaking $100 million treasure of
the S.S. Central America and the S.S. Brother Jonathan. Over a long period of years she has worked with hundreds of consign-
ors and helped present the Louis E. Eliasberg Sr. Collection, the Harry W. Bass, Jr, Collection, the Ambassador and Mrs. R. Henry
Norweb Collection, the Walter Childs Collection, the Dr. Haig A. Koshkarian Collection, the Oliver Jung Collection, and the Cardinal
Collection. She is a member of the Professional Numismatists Guild, a life member of the American Numismatic Association
and a board member of the Industry Council for Tangible Assets (ICTA). Her unstinting and tireless efforts have helped leading
collectors and dealers worldwide obtain the very best prices for coins, tokens, medals, and paper money, working hand-in-hand
with experts and departments within our organization.
