A lot of military trade tokens arrived today, and I've imaged all of them! I won't bomb the thread with all of them just yet, but this one is by far my favorite of the group: It's too bad about the graffiti on the reverse below 25c.
Coins turned into exonumia. Number 1 French and 3 USA older 19th century enamelling and a New Zealand Dr. Who modern enameled silver.
Unless you start a sub set of challenge coins based on the size of the aircraft worked on! Still a very nice looking one
I like this one too, Jack. The holder doesn't distract from the picture in this case. The graffiti isn't bad either, and will probably darken over time. Bruce
This is currently my favorite in my collection! Issued by Spaulding & Co during the Presidential campaigns of 1896. The wagon wheel represents the size of a Morgan dollar whereas the large planchet, almost twice the weight in grains, was purportedly the equivalency of one U.S. gold dollar on September 16, 1896. Coin Name: 1896 Bryan "So Called Dollar" Schornstein-16 HK-785 NGC MS62 #2613749-001. R-5 rarity, extremely difficult to locate in uncirculated grades (less than 10 total.) NGC has graded a total of 25 of these, with 3 others reaching MS62 and only two higher. PCGS has graded a total of 1 of this variety, an MS62, none higher.
There's a couple nice ones out there from Northwest Territorial Mint but they don't have the A-10 or V-22.
