Neat-looking Tomaska-signed Frankie. Not entirely my cuppa tea, personally, but dramatic. I do think the target-toned reverse is wild, and can...
Ah, there's a Hallmark. Great CAM on that Kennedy in the old PCI green. I have fond memories of those. I bought a 1904 $20 Lib in a PCI green...
Ineresting. My thoughts went to Indian "Bull & Horseman" coins, but I dunno. While doing a quick Googling, I brought up this page from our very...

Yeah, brg5658 would be a good one to ask, but that's gonna be one HUGE list, and I doubt anyone has compiled a truly comprehensive one. You'd...
Looks good! Nice Izzie quaddah, too. Forty years I've been collecting, as of tomorrow. Never had one of those.
