I live close to Wiliamstown but there's not many shops still around that I know of. There's Village Coins in Westmont that's still open but I...
That's a nice CC medal. I have a huge collection of medals, tokens, and such all issued by clubs, ANA, collectors, dealers, etc. I have quite a...
Nice collection of nickels. I have one in my collection but don't recall the date. The 53 is rare. As a matter of fact, I don't recall ever seeing...

Yeah, I can see that as a possibility. It could also be celebrating an event...Ex for exhibition, maybe, or something similar? Bruce
Well, Rick Snow is highly regarded so I would think his stickers would be too. Bruce
Intent is too hard to prove...not in this case... but I get the point. I have to vote natural for the windowsill coin though because no chemicals...
It's a nice piece despite the problems. I like it. Bruce
