Congrats again on #12 :) #10, I think I agree with Conder101. It doesn't look like a planchet flaw - but these incuse Indians are weird and you...
Which book do the members here recommend? I have the Fox book, but it is expensive, hard to find, and out of date. I hesitate to buy the Bowers...
Your link is broken. Does anyone here own any genuine ones? I think these are interesting, but well outside my collecting interests.
Nice! I found a 3rd edition at FUN a couple of years ago, and picked it up for curiousity's sake. Obviously, we've evolved a bit from then, but...
