The E-Sylum: Volume 4, Number 23, June 3, 2001, Article 11 PENNYPACKER HOLLAND CENT AUCTION Another interesting piece of ephemera I stumbled across recently is a copy of the May 8, 1959 auction of "The Famous Leonard M. Holland Large Copper Cent Collection" sold at the aptly-named Pennypacker Auction Centre in Reading, PA. According to a number of accounts, the sale was little publicized and only a small number of knowledgeable copper collectors were on hand. Reportedly, they formed a consortium to buy the cents, then re-auction them among themselves. One account appears in the October 17th, 1992 Kolbe sale of the Dennis Mendelson Library (lot 133).
