Agreed, Mountain Man. The portrait of Washington is awkward. I do like the reverse but it's a bit crowded for me. Bruce
I'd watch what I buy from someone going to jail. Could be that he's selling somebody else's stuff...without them knowing it.:D Bruce
I'd like to know where you get your junk boxes from, Z. Maybe you should call them "junque boxes". Some good stuff there for sure. Bruce
Very impressive, Z. Beautiful all around medal. Bruce

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...
