Hoard coins: many bags of 1893 dollars were released by the Treasury in the mid-1950s and very early 1960s. John Jay Ford, Jr. handled at least one bag in 1952, dribbling out the contents for years; circa 1959, John Love reported handling one bag, at least one bag was sold by LaVere Redfield prior to his death, and multiple bags were bought by Superior Stamp & Coin Co. from Redfield's widow prior to the sale at auction of Redfield silver dollars in January 1976, by which time the holding had been reduced to two to four bags. Few bags were in the 1962-1964 Treasury release.
