AN- GIMBLES RARE 10 Coin Peace Silver Dollar Roll Circ C

Lot # 11448 (Sale Order: 7 of 1114)      

AN- GIMBLES RARE 10 Coin Peace Silver Dollar Roll Circ C. Up For Auction is a 155- GIMBLES RARE 10 Coin Peace Silver Dollar Roll Circ C Roll Weighing 268.4 g Bas...moreed On this weight this is a Circ Roll We are very excited to present over 1,500 Silver Dollar Rolls from what we are calling “The Department Store Hoard”. Inside this hoard was a huge estate of hundreds of silver dollar rolls. The sheer size of it was unprecedented. Throughout the early-mid 1900’s the collector of the estate acquired hundreds of coin rolls of all different types. His family tells us that he was at one point a buyer for Macys and then a suit wholesaler to various department stores. While in these stores he would often pick up “investment rolls” at a lower price than they were offering the public. In his collection, we found original numismatic advertisements, catalogs, newspapers, and magazines from a wide array of places used to order these rolls and various other coins in his collection.There were 10-15 different types of roll’s in this collection. However, the vast majority were stamped “Gimbels, Marshall Field, and Sears”. Among this collection are 10 and 20 coin rolls. Most of the covered end rolls are marked “Morgan, Peace, or Mixed”. The Gimbels rolls are marked “A+, A, B+, B, and C” and stamped on one of the ends “M” or “P” designating Morgans or Peace Dollars. We believe more than this variety existed at some point, but these are the only markings that we found in this collection. After opening several of each type, we have determined that the letters seem to refer to the rarity and quality of the coins inside. We have spent months going through this collection and identifying everything. We have opened several rolls of every type and did not find any that were miss marked. Based on all of our findings and what we have found when we opened various rolls, we have estimated the values of what we believe each variation tends to have.There were a lot of rolls in this hoard and the different kinds are quite confusing, Corey has made a PDF explaining each variety and what he has found in a bit more depth. If you are interested in a copy, send us an email at jordan@kdcauction.com and we’ll send one right over.The agreement with the Consignee is that we wire on Friday their portion of the funds for any rolls paid that week and on Mondays we will send our runner up to New York to retrieve the rolls for shipment that week from our offices as well as photographing the rolls for the next week's auction. We hope you enjoy these rolls as much as we have bringing them to you!

The Marshall Field rolls differentiate themselves based on the color printing on the outer edge of the roll. We found rolls in red, blue, green, and a few in the illustrious black. One of the ends of the roll is stamped “Morgan” or “Peace” designating what type is found inside. With Marshall Field being a high end department store (comparable to Neimen Marcus or Bloomingdales today), it was no surprise that these rolls are the nicest rolls any of us have come across in any of our careers.

1891-s Morgan Dollar Ultra Rare Paramount Redfield Hoard $1 ms63 Paramount

Lot # 11465 (Sale Order: 17 of 1114)      

1891-s Ultra Rare Paramount Redfield Hoard Morgan Dollar $1 ms63 Paramount. Lavere Redfield was an eccentric, savvy investor in stocks and real estate. He made his...more fortune through shrewd investments. When he died, a massive treasure trove of silver dollars was discovered in his Nevada home. The Redfield collection is indeed one of the largest treasures of Morgan dollars found in the United States and is now the delight of many numismatists.Numismatist Lavere RedfieldThe collection of a lifetimeLavere Redfield was an American businessman, landowner, numismatist, roulette player and philanthropist. He was born into poverty in October 1897 in Utah and moved to Idaho shortly after World War I, where he worked as a potato farmer and store manager. Ten years later, at the beginning of the Great Depression, he moved to Los Angeles.Upon his arrival in California, he decided to invest his savings and began buying unwanted stocks at a low price. He apparently had a knack for picking the right investments and eventually made a fortune.In 1935, he bought a farmland and a large stone house in Reno. With his wife Nell, they were part of the wave of millionaires courted by the state of Nevada, which claimed no taxes.Throughout the 1940s and 1950s, Redfield would procure bags of silver dollars and store them in the basement of his home. He would go to the bank to buy $1,000 bags and bring them back in his car himself.Redfield’s treasure: a hidden fortuneHating banks and paper money, as well as the government, Redfield chose to keep his treasure in his own home. In 1960, he was convicted of tax fraud by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), the U.S. federal government agency that collects income and other taxes. He preferred to serve an 18-month sentence in federal prison rather than pay his debts. Upon his release, he returned to Reno and continued to accumulate silver dollars.In order to remain inconspicuous, he walked around town poorly dressed. Redfield would sometimes walk from his Forest Street mansion to downtown Reno, while he owned numerous vehicles. It was never clear whether he didn’t want to spend his money or whether he preferred to keep a low profile. He reportedly begged Rollan Melton, the publisher of the local newspaper, the Reno Evening Gazette, not to publish his picture, so that people would not know what he looked like.However, rumors spread quickly. There were many attempts to rob him and to break into his house. No one ever got their hands on his treasure of millions of dollars, hidden in the false walls of his house

1891 $5 Large Size Silver Certificate Grant Grades vf+ Signatures Tillman/Morgan

Lot # 11474 (Sale Order: 25 of 1114)      

1891 $5 Large Size Silver Certificate Grant Grades vf+ Signatures Tillman/Morgan. FR-267 Ulysses S. Grant...This Note’s For You!Out West in the 19th Century, folks liked...more carrying big silver dollars in their pockets. And back East? Not so much. Easterners preferred folding currency like this 1891 $5 Silver Certificate—a type of legal-tender paper currency issued by the U.S. government that enabled individuals to buy silver without taking possession of it. Silver Certificates can still be redeemed for cash, but not for silver dollars, as of March of 1964.President Grant Is Just A Bit Right Of CenterThis larger-than-today’s-currency, this 1891 $5 Treasury Silver Certificate measures 7.375" x 3.125" and depicts President Ulysses S. Grant, famed Union General during the Civil War, and our 18th president. However, the words “United States” push him off-center, leaving his portrait on the right half of the note rather than in center as we see him today on our nation’s $50 notes. Further to the right is a bright red seal, while in the bottom left corner are stark blue serial numbers.
