History

The Redfield Hoard is a legendary story in the world of coin collecting. LaVere Redfield, a savvy investor, chose to safeguard his wealth not in banks, but in Dollar Silver Coins, amassing a collection of 407,000 coins. Upon his death, this immense hoard was found in his Nevada home and later sold to A-Mark for $7.3 million, an amount worth nearly $40 million today.
