If the provisions of the preceding section cannot be executed, if the property bestowed as a gift consisted of real estate, the coheirs shall have a right to be equalized in cash, or in securities, at the rate at which they are quoted; and should there be in the inheritance neither cash nor securities which can be quoted, other property shall be sold at public auction insofar as necessary.\nIf the property bestowed as a gift is personal property, the coheirs shall have only a right to be equalized in other personal property of the inheritance at its just value at their option.\nHistory —Civil Code, 1930, § 1002.
