<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2877127, member: 19463&quot;]If you play your cards right, your home made envelopes might be more interesting than the coins they enclose.&nbsp; This one was made in 1920 (June 17 according to the top row on the back of the card insert) probably by a disabled veteran in a German hospital who was given therapy coins but needed cheap supplies (NFA&#039;s idea).&nbsp; His collection was sold by NFA long ago and Victor Failmezger bought a lot enabling him to piece together the cards and envelopes that contributed to the project.&nbsp; I got very few from Victor.&nbsp; This was one of my better coins from the group.&nbsp;&nbsp; </p><p>[ATTACH=full]688792[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>This is a fine example of what comes when people don&#039;t notice they were in the Ancients section and give a modern answer.&nbsp; I do believe this is our first from the amusement tokens point of view.&nbsp; I do understand the desire to spend less on housing items that are not high priced (ancient or amusement).&nbsp; Welcome harley bissell.&nbsp; BTW there are sellers of envelopes who pay postage on such items if you shop around.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
