Owner Comments:

Ex: Omaha Bank Hoard

This is a brilliant, white coin with a strong strike but not quite full steps.

According to Mark Borckardt of Heritage Auction Galleries, his firm purchased the Omaha Bank Hoard in its entirety for a seven-figure total in 2004. The hoard consisted of over 320,000 coins, all in rolls, that were saved between the late 1930s and continuing until the early 1970s. The hoard consisted of cent through half dollar rolls all in mint state condition. It required a moving van to transport everything. The earliest coins in the hoard were original rolls of Buffalo nickels and Walking Liberty halves, with most of the coins being saved in the 1950s and 1960s, and very little saved after 1964.
