2 very nice coins, and a connection through the family to B. Max Mehl! Neat thread.
Hi, for those who know the series, those are obvious fakes, but they could fool a lot of collectors. It is against the law to sell them, unless...
Not mine. posted by a member of an anti-counterfeit group I belong to.
I'm sorry it turned out to be a fake! I always hope I'm wrong in those situations. But, you're welcome and I hope I was helpful in the long run....
Nice coins, Kanga- great color and nicely struck. They stand well together as a group.
Nice thread again, Jim. Figures the one I get right is in a series I don't pay much attention to, LOL!

Can't make it, so will have to rely on the excellent show reports I have come to expect from illini, jack, Charmy, et. al. (hint, hint...)
I certainly wouldn't hold it against you. Holiday weekends are pretty risky for sellers, imo.
So many extremely cool coins posted to this thread... I'm really enjoying them.
That's a very nice set of dollars, it takes a while to put a series like that together. Now, you really do need to get that Bust dollar!
I believe xf details, but it looks bright and hairlined from a cleaning, imo. suggested price- $99.95
Very nice coins! I have my Dad's War Nickel set in its old Capitol Plastics holder and really treasure it. I'd still like to have a high grade...
