I don’t know, but I like them. They seem to have made a lot of octagonal jetons in the early- to mid-19th century. (And even earlier, like your...
Precisely what happened to me, in my weary and distracted state after the show.
Thought I’d do a thread resurrection on this one, since I came here to fetch a link, earlier.
It’s handsome. Looks like a nice Brown UNC.
Nicely informative post, P&G. I have trouble thinking of anything they struck four and a half billion of as “low mintage”, but yeah, I guess...
Oops. Sorry. I got my Chinese dragon boats and Korean turtle ships mixed up, there. I've liked that type ever since I found one in a bulk lot....

I can see why the "Sambo" book would be banned, but the fairy?
I don’t think it will darken much, from the looks of it, though I could of course be wrong. If replacing it is a hassle, and you decide you can...
I thought the NGC cert pages had the date the coin was slabbed, down in the fine print somewhere? Or maybe that’s just on copper coins? I’ll...
Separate names with a comma.
