McClaren Collection?

Can anyone tell me about the collection?

Legend is handling the sale........seems to be a pretty wide range of coins across all pricepoints

Seems to be mostly a hoard, as opposed to a collection. Maybe it's a collection, wrapped in a hoard, inside an enigma, folded into a riddle...

Large assemblage of Walkers, Merc dimes, and Peace and Morgan dollars. Many of the 30,000+ coins have been off the market for quite some time and are in old holders. Legend is offering them both on the website and via emails.

Interesting distinction. Neither a collection, nor a hoard...but an assemblage. I like it.

I ordered 3 or 4 of the walkers and was very happy w/quality.

The NGC coins have actually desensitized the Koolaid™ receptors in my tongue!

The collection is more of a quality hoard of Morgan dollars, Peace dollars

and Walking Liberty Halves. I believe that those three series represent

the hoard. It totaled about 38,000 pieces with about 25,000 Morgan

Dollars sold wholesale to another dealer with the remainder representing

the best being sold by Legend on their websight and at the shows they attend.

While most of the coins are rather common dates, many of them are in

beautiful uncommon high grade.

I've bought a few Walkers out of this group and have been VERY pleased. MJ

I'm amazed at the thought of 38,000 coins. Wow. That's just mind boggling.

Any relation to Bruce McLaren, the car guy?

I asked Laura that and she wouldn't devulge any information. She did show me a picture she took on her cell phone of the loaded truck......Amazing! I'll I know is that the collection was a driveable distance to NJ......That's could be anyone of 65 million people I guess......MJ

I wouldn't know Billy but I did see a handful of McLarens back in 1968 at Bridgehampton Race Track.
Bruce set the track record himself in a McLaren the following year.

I bought an 1886 Morgan, NGC-MS63, just last weekend at a local auction and didn't even notice the "McClaren Collection" on it 'till I got home.
Was going to ask about it but then found this thread.
