thedeadpoint Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I see on Heritage Auctions that they've auctioned off some coins with a pedigree from the "Richmond Collection." I hail from Richmond, Va and I'm just plain curious if there is a famous collection sharing the city with me. Cursory research online says its a very significant collection for what it contained. I have heard the local Du Pont family (of Du Pont Corporation fame) has a few of the big rarities like a 1913 V nick or two. Maybe this is their collection. Anyone know anything about the Richmond Collection? Thanks - Native Son to Richmond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anywho, no one has yet to tell me where the Richmond name comes from! My hometown? Another city? or just some bum named Richmond? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDJMSP Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Anywho, no one has yet to tell me where the Richmond name comes from! My hometown? Another city? or just some bum named Richmond? It was a collection assembled by Bradley Hirst of Richmond, Indiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
