FDR's Coin Collection........Where did it go?

frankieboywonder

It is well known that President Roosevelt was an avid stamp collector and that after his death his large collection hit the auction block. Many were able to purchase a piece of history.

What is not as well known is that FDR also had a coin collection. But I have never heard what coins were in his collection or what ever became of them.

Any info out there regarding this?
