This is a piece I have owned before... but I recently purchased it back. I have always been fond of this piece. It was engraved by Paquet.

Another beauty!

 

PS: Matt I am beginning to really HATE you!

well, the stuff you get anyway.

 

very nice

 

I love your hatred Frank... I hope to inspire more of it.

 

You just did with 1) the MS-65 Barber dime and the Accugrade bodybag.

Actually, I don't think you need any inspiration, your crazy customers do it for you.

 

By the way, I'll (cough, cough) be nice and offer you 25X face for that dime!

no, not that one, the ugly one in the plastic holder, yeah, that one

Called a Barber dime or something?

Ya know MS stands for More Stains!

So, I'll help you out of it.

 

I think I've seen this before, and it is a beauty for sure. Thanks for posting it, Matt.

By the way, how do you like that dinky little slab? I've got 5 of them so far.

I love these big slabs... they are neat looking suckers.

 

Yeah, it looks like a tip tray!

That is a wonderful piece. How big is it?

 

82mm.... maybe a little smaller than a softball.

 

Wow, that is really cool.

 

Awesome !!!!! is the only word to describe it . And Frank , I'm still waiting on that 1894-S dime you owe me .

 

Nah, hate Matt, Love the stuff.

(Hope Matt knows I'm kidding.)
