The E-Sylum: Volume 02, Number 18, May 2, 1999, Article 3RESEARCH REQUESTNBS member W. David Perkins, an early silver dollar (1794-1803) collector and researcher, requests assistance from anyone who might know the answer to the following: "According to a copy (with buyer's initials) of the Lester Merkin September 18, 1968 Public Auction Sale, lot 272, a 1799/8 B-1 silver dollar in About Uncirculated (lot is plated in the sale catalog) was purchased by a collector or dealer with the initials "J.O.K." Does anyone know who the initials J.O.K. stand for? [This same specimen was later offered in the Bowers & Merena Mann & Smedley sale, September 13, 1988:363 (lot is plated in this sale also). It is unknown if more than one person owned this silver dollar from 1968 to 1998.]" Wayne Homren, EditorContent presented in The E-Sylum is not necessarily researched or independently fact-checked, and views expressed do not necessarily represent those of the Numismatic Bibliomania Society.
