Announcing the
E Pluribus Unum Collection
of the Medals of John Adams Bolen
Featured in the November 2021 Showcase Auction
This landmark offering is one of the largest ever of Bolen's works. It is singularly important, as the core of this offering includes dozens of medals from John Adams Bolen's personal collection—medals that have never before been offered at public auction. Nearly 100 different medals are included in the presentation, including great rarities such as Bolen's George Clinton, Standing Indian and Eagle on Globe copper plate, one of two produced and the only offering of one since the 1884 sale of the Isaac F. Wood Collection. The Bolen pieces from the E Pluribus Unum Collection, along with other important Numismatic Americana from this cabinet, will be featured in the Stack's Bowers Galleries November 21-23, 2021 Official Auction of the Whitman Coin & Collectibles Winter Expo.
