This Remarkable Collection is Currently Available for Acquisition

“One of the finest antiquities collections in private hands in America,” is being offered in an unprecedented sale for the first time. This 40-year collection of nearly 3,000 items is fully curated (researched, documented, catalogued, provenanced with chain-of-custody, appraised and organized for exhibition). For the past 15 years it has been displayed at Liberty University and open to the public.

This collection represents the ancient heritage of Israel spanning the prehistoric period through the late Roman period with a focus on the connection between the history of the Jewish People and the Hebrew Bible. Preserving this ancient heritage through the material evidence is important to demonstrating and defending the historical claims of the Jewish People and in cultivating an accurate knowledge of and appreciation of the contribution of the Jewish People to Western civilization and culture.

Dr. Craig and Joel Lampe appraised the total items at the 2022 fair market value at $15,300,000.00. The current asking price is based on the 2022 assessed value.

The collection is now professionally packed, labeled, and ready for shipment.
