Abstract
An asymptotically efficient sequence of estimators for the location parameter of an (unknown) symmetric density $f$ is given under weak conditions on the tails of $f$. The estimators are related to the usual linear combination of order statistics except that the unknown $f$ has to be estimated and only some of the order statistics are used.
