SALE / FIXED PRICE LIST SOUGHT: E.H.A. 2/2/14
Mike Hodder writes: "John Ford used to tell me that his
collection of Wood's Hibernias included many coins
pedigreed to Philip Nelson's own collection. Nelson's
collection of Hibernias seems never to have been sold
publicly. Harry Manville notes that Charles Watters
bought part of it in the spring of 1917 and that the balance
went to a Liverpool museum.In cataloguing Ford's Hibernias for sale I've found what is
(to me) an enigmatic reference to a sale that Fred Boyd
noted contained Hibernias he bought that were ex Nelson
Collection. The sale is listed only as "E.H.A. 2/2/14". The
name that comes to mind right away is Adams' but neither J.
W. Adams nor Gengerke note an E.H. Adams sale that late.
Davis does not list a sale citation for an E.H. Adams' fixed
price list of that date.I wonder if any readers can help throw some light on the
citation? If it helps, the lots Boyd bought from the "E.H.A.
2/2/14" sale were:Lot 2 (Nelson 2)
Lot 3 (Nelson 3 in silver)
Lot 5 (Nelson 3 in copper)
Lot 6 (another copper Nelson 3)
Lot 8 (Nelson 7 in silver)
Lot 10 (Nelson 7 in copper)
Lot 11 (another Nelson 7 in copper)
Lot 12 (Nelson 6)
Lot 13 (Nelson 5)
Lot 14 (Nelson 8)
Lot 15 (another Nelson 8)
Lot 16 (another Nelson 8)
Lot 18 (Nelson 12 in silver)
Lot 19 (Nelson 12 in copper)
Lot 20 (Nelson 17)
Lot 21 (Nelson 10)
Lot 23 (Nelson 11 in silver)
Lot 24 (Nelson 13)
Lot 26 (Nelson 11 in copper)
Lot 27 (another Nelson 11 in copper)
Lot 28 (another Nelson 11 in copper)."- 2004-09-12
