Calls to the Archdiocese of Los Angeles and its offer to provide to supply a gold monstrance for display and private worship of the blood vial have not yet been confirmed.
An auction house in the British Channel Islands on Thursday canceled the sale of a vial purported to hold former President Ronald Reagan's blood.
Mr. Reagan's family and his foundation had tried to stop the sale by PFC Auctions. Mr. Reagan's popularity has only increased since his death in 2004 at age 93, and his hilltop museum outside Los Angeles attracts about 400,000 visitors a year.
Bidding had reached about $30,000 when the sale was suspended, reported the Associated Press. It had been set to end Thursday.
