    Not really necessary...not something that's in my targets but the one he was selling had my exact name. I thought it was neat.

    I've always tried to find a counerstamp with my last name on it or my initials, Jack, but never have. I suppose when your name is Throckmorton Slotahbotnick, it just ain't going to happen.:arghh:

    I'd like to say I attended the Hong Kong coin show last December, but I didn't, so I got this instead.....

    and couldn't pass on this So- Called Dollar for a fin ....a 1935 Pony Express Medal. Check out the doubling on this puppy, plus the inscription on the reverse . ...one of my favorite songs "Changing Horses"

    Here's a couple I added to my collection in the last few weeks. The Masonic George Washington has been cleaned and dinged but in my eyes it's still a keeper being copyrighted from 1899 and all. :D

    California souvenir sets
    These tend to show up all the time in the ID forum by people hoping they are real. Here is the context they were originally sold in. Not how they are now sold on the bay!

    Picked up this guy this morning. Although listed in Fuld as a Civil War token, this one is a bit unique. The engraving was done by Longacre and the token was struck on a loaned US Mint steam press on actual 1C planchets. The edges were reeded to avoid confusion. Sold for 50C at the fair, these were struck in bronze, like mine, and silver (quite rare). Seller's pics... hoping for a problem free coin.

    Apparently so! Lincoln was even there, according to what I've read.
