Bachelor LaVere Redfield lived near Reno, NV for more than 70 years and hoarded 400,000 Morgan Dollars behind a false wall in his basement. After his death, the county court disposed of the hoard at an auction in 1976 for more than $7 million.
The winning bidder split the hoard among several dealers. These pieces, later encased in red plastic holders, are known simply as "Redfield dollars." Among the most sought-after dates are 1879-CC, 1889-CC, 1892-P, 1893-CC, 1895-S and the 1903-S in mint condition.
