Nevada auction

[eelgrass]

I heard on the radio this morning that on this day in 1864 the first auction in Nevada was held in Austin.

Can you guess what the first item to be auctioned off was?

The first person with the correct answer is cool.

Eel

A sack of flour is correct. When I heard it I thought maybe a canteen of water or a jack rabbit pelt.

NVBighorn was first to PM with the answer, so he is very cool!
