You have a unique collection of unusual items Wehwalt. I enjoy seeing them as much as you enjoy showing them. Keep 'em comin' Bruce
The paired Ms may be the initials of the designer Wehwalt. They don't bring anyone to mind, at least not to me. Bruce
Does a problem like that detract from the value funkee? It obviously bothers you but I would think twice about fixing it. It may not be worth...
That's really an interesting token Wehwalt. It seems an odd thing to commerorate something so destructive. They were desperate times for sure but...
Geez, 2063 will mark my 109th anniversary of collecting coins. I guess I'll have a nice collection by then, but still not as good as Siberian...

That's a nice certificate from your collection. I always thought this kind of exonumia was interesting and can't tell you how many times I saw...

[ATTACH] [ATTACH] Here's a token most likely from the mid 1930s. The Congress Grill was still in business as late as 1976 at 129 E. Main St, but...
Those scratches are on the slab and not the coin. Oh, wait a minute...it's not in a slab. :eek: Geez Ken, do you really think they're die polish...
