<p>[QUOTE="Andrew McCabe, post: 3496788, member: 90666"]You likely won't get any luck at all enquiring who the collector was. If it's known, the vendors aren't saying. I believe the collector is unknown to numismatics. It's likely an estate sale, perhaps of someone who passed many years ago, and the choice to go old-school retail suggests a desire to maintain a low profile. There may well be an discreet agent between the owners and whichever dealer first touched the coins, so that no information is passed down. I bought quite a few good coins and couldn't prise out any information, other than that the collection is "SC" which I later discovered to mean southern California.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
