Excerpt from Catalogue of the Numismatic Collection of Mr. O. H. Berg, of Baltimore, Comprising Rare Foreign Crowns, Bronze Medals, an 1804 Dollar, and Other U. S. Silver Coins, Cents, Half-Cents, &C: To Be Sold at Auction on Wednesday and Thursday, May 23 and 24, 1883 Although Mr. O. H. Berg, the owner of this collection, has been widely known for many years as an ardent student of numismatics, still but few persons were aware of the success which attended his labors; unostentatious in his demeanor, he naturally always disliked to make a parade of his possessions having ample means at his com mand, and being an enthusiastic and persistent worker, he had gath ered up in a quiet way many treasures which will prove a genuine surprise to his friends.
