[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 2625439, member: 8959"]Ken, even If I do not know you, it is a pleasure to know this coin went through your hands. I bought this coin back in 1997-1999 from an on-line auction. This is the ticket that came with it. You may recognize it. It also refers to a Messenger Collection Sale, dated 1951 (?) I have searched for references to this collection with no success. [SIZE=4]A pleasant memory comes to mind when looking at the coin and ticket again: I spotted it on an on-line sale. I bid on it, but unfortunately needed to travel unexpectedly on the day of the sale. I totally forgot to follow on the action, until it was too late to up my bid. Naturally I was quite dissapointed I had missed it. When I got home the day after my wife surprised with the news that she had bid on it and won the coin for me! That is a loving wife for you! will never forget that. [ATTACH=full]576645[/ATTACH] [/SIZE][/QUOTE]
