Well, Feuchtwanger was German (albeit Bavarian rather than Prussian), so maybe that motif goes back a ways in German tradition. The Mexicans have...
That's a pleasing example. Nothing wrong at all with that one.
Yeah, but those three-cent ones are scarcer than hen's teeth. I dunno if I'd have gone $580 for that one, but still...
Mine was 150 bucks more. $189 with free shipping. Which I still thought was a good deal for an AU53.
I don't know, offhand. The Wikipedia article about them doesn't go into much detail on that. I'm sure it was mostly New York, but given the...

What's your minimum grade, Randy?
I should add that if you're planning on selling this collection, you're likely to do much better selling the coins that way, too- individually....
Much better.
Nobody's going to be able to help you with thumbnail sized images, posted in random clumps, where we can't tell what obverse goes with what...
