<p>[QUOTE=&quot;illini420, post: 2032499, member: 19423&quot;]I was a little tempted to sell it to one of the descendants of Lloyd Branson that contacted me as the piece would be a family heirloom that most would like to pass down.&nbsp; But there was more than one person claiming to be a relative who contacted me and if I sold to either of them there was no guarantee the piece would ever see the light of day again.</p><p><br /></p><p>Would be interesting to know how this piece ever ended up on a bid board in a coin shop in Southern California in the first place.&nbsp; How could this piece ever escape ownership by the family in the first place and then ultimately make its way over 2000 miles west?&nbsp; Will probably never know that part of the story...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
