[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 5141917, member: 10461"][USER=73385]@tibor[/USER]- thank you for tagging me on this thread. I messaged [USER=103066]@Evan Saltis[/USER] about the love token in the original post, since it is an ideal fit for my sideline “holey” collection, and I prefer nice holey love tokens to plain old holed coins. We made a trade. As mentioned previously, the coin in the original post is a special love token for a number of reasons: [LIST] [*]The engraving style, while not superbly ornate, is good. [*]There is a genealogically identifiable person (first and last name) and her birthdate on it. [*]Any love token on a Bust half host coin is a little better. Plus, this one has high grade details on the obverse. [*]The initial “S” also happens to correspond to my own last name. [/LIST] In return, since Evan wanted an unaltered Bust half for his type set, I sent him this 1832, which is a nice grey “[URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/what-is-a-circcam-you-ask-look-and-see-and-post-yours.288335/']CircCam[/URL]”, plus a few other trinkets. Win-win. The unaltered coin below fits his collection better, and the love token above suits mine perfectly. :) [ATTACH=full]1206663[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1206664[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
