A highly coveted silver coin was sold by a Las Vegas man for $12 million. The collectible is believed by many to be the first silver dollar ever struck by the U.S. Mint.
Great Collections, an Irving, California-based coin auction company, bought the coin from Bruce Morelan, a 60-year-old Las Vegas business executive, who first acquired the coin at an auction in 2013, paying over $10 million.
Three years earlier, the silver dollar had been privately traded for a sum of $7.85 million.
