OK, dig out your holey dollars and a piece of string for the kids! (third item)

Thinking is dangerous, it makes you think. That\'s why many people avoid it.

I heard that the chap that played Ted Clampet in the show Beverley Hillbillies owned a Holey Dollar and Dump.

I did hear a story that after he died, then Holey Dollar and Dump were both sold at auction for $115,000 for the two.

Can anyone support this story?

I know at the last two shows here in Melbourne, Coin shows that is, Belinda Downie had some beautiful holey dollars and dumps up for grabs.   Hope they will make an appearance again at the forthcoming anda show for one to drool over.

Buddy Ebsen ("Jed Clampett") sold his coin collection in 1987.  I don't know about the Holey Dollar and Dump.

Wasn't she looking for over a quarter mil for them?

Some of his coins have been available for sale in Strand Coins in Sydney for a while.  Not sure if one of them was a holey dollar.
