<p>[QUOTE="canudigit, post: 4234547, member: 111193"]Well..I don't know what came over me, but last night while indulging in a nice big bowl of Blue Dream I ripped open the album with my teeth and proceeded to smoke-tone these babies. All the profiles on the IHs turned in to Robert Plant!! If you try this at home just FYI, after a coupe hours the Indians are back...PHEW! </p><p><br /></p><p>On the RW album history - thanks Dave, yes I did that research so obviously these cent were transferred to present albums sometime after 1934. Starting to narrow down little facts on Uncle Daddy Warbucks - last name of Morris from Louisville KY. If any collectors from KY recognize that name I'd like to hear from you. This portion of his collection given to present owners father somewhere between 1950-60. There could possibly be some written documentation or record among the mountains of paper files from estate. My friend (owner) also has been trying to reach out to long lost relatives with little success thus far. </p><p><br /></p><p>Today I will be spending the day with the owner photo documenting and recording details of each coin. I have already found some (important?) varieties on some dates. The notations you see in pencil - other than the original PR notations - are notations by me. 'Pointed Bust' - shallow N - and so on. I have found that 1858 SL PR is 'Low Leaves -type lll'. The mystery grows in my mind due to the lack of these type notations by U.D. Warbucks? Are these varieties not important to document?? Anyway - a tight personal documentation is the first step - before these coins go anywhere. I have been given a reprieve on permanently returns this collection to the owner until I have had time to examine each example most thoroughly. I'm VERY happy about that! Thanks so much for your continued interest all![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
