MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 10/27/2014 4:40 pm I can only imagine the amazing history that is lurking in this archive which is being sold as one lot. There are also coins being offered in 25 lots. No specific dates or coins mentioned except a 1803 Capped Bust $10 Eagle in MS61 . http://www.coinworld.com/insights/e...ice.all.html I plan on watching when these items are listed on ebay. Enjoy. -MV Report this Post to the Staff

MeadowviewCollector Pillar of the Community United States 4409 Posts	Posted 11/01/2014 1:09 pm I just remembered this was available for viewing. There are some coins being offered. 1793 1/2 cent 1800 and 1807 dimes 8 Draped Bust Dollars 18 different gold coins the latest which is dated 1827. In my opinion, I think a collection of this caliber would do better at a big name auction house versus ebay. -MV Report this Post to the Staff
Demarco Bishopp Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 548 Posts	Posted 11/01/2014 1:45 pm 220 years of collecting spread across seven generations, and Henry Eckfeldt is just gonna sell it all on ebay? Surely there must be someone in his family who wants to carry on the tradition. Report this Post to the Staff
coinlover168 Pillar of the Community United States 506 Posts	Posted 11/01/2014 5:25 pm I think only that 1 lot is of the Eckfeldt's. Why would they do this? They just want to sell everything at once and be done with it? The other 25 lots are just other coins Tangible Investments wanted to sell along side it.

Yeah, that's how I'm reading it. I don't see much problem with ebay as the venue as long as they publicize the sale. Once word is out, the appropriate people will gravitate to it. This is too important a piece of history to be broken up - sellers obviously get that - and it should do fine as long as they don't set an unrealistic Reserve. Report this Post to the Staff
