Got piece #9 today. It's the Polished Color Toned Merlin, mintage of only 6. I never thought it would be available. This was the first one offered as far as I know since they were released by the Knights. I'm stoked to say the least. I only need the Satin version to complete the 10 piece set I'm building. First 4 pics are of the new token, last pic is the set it will join.
Oddly enough, no. That was in a plastic crafts drawer for a year that I forgot about. This is the typical progression I get though no matter where a coin is. The yellow will go deeper and the blue will grow then the yellow will turn into a yellow/red and the blue into purple if I leave it out long enough. I think I'll just let the blue grow a little more then put it away in another month or so.
I have a question for the Carr experts. . . I know the size of the Hard Times Token (first image) is 39mm. Is the Broken Sword Peace Dollar (second image) the same size?
The Hard Times token is 39mm (1 troy oz . 999 silver). The over-strike Peace is slightly over 38mm (about the same as it was prior to the over-strike).
