Hey gang! One of my customers acquired this and brought it in the other day. The story he got was that it was damaged in shipping and not used. It does not look like it was polished for use. He was kind enough to let me take these pics. I thought it was neat and wanted to share.
Very nice indeed... I have two coins from that particular year (bad pics, the coins themselves are stunning). Thanks for posting!
I probably could have bought it but with the questional legality of these coins... I decided against it.
That is very cool! I'm sure with a little adjustment that can be used very quickly. I wonder how much would have to be removed from Von Not Haus's original design to keep the gov't off your back? Heck if I had it and I had the back-up money I would easily have a bunch of double headed silver rounds made, I think they'd sell.
Probably quite a bit when you consider that they think that design is close enough to a real coins design that people could confuse them thus making his coins counterfeits.
Now that people can see how a coin die is arranged, perhaps they would see why members spoke against the idea of "bending" , etc. Jim
