    Nice half (even if it is "modern crap";)--ie, minted on a steam press instead of a screw press).

    My birthday is in a week and a half. I haven't decided on my gift to myself yet.


    But I will.:joyful:

    It’s almost normal every day. At least I feel better and no more headaches.

    From a dealer that I’ve known for years in New Hampshire. And I have a number of ones that look like yours. It wasn’t cheap but it wasn’t real expensive either. I needed a nice one for the Dansco and she was the one. Only 152 years old.

    You had to be extra good during the last year to deserve a beauty like that. Did you reach a birthday milestone this year?

    By the photos looks evey bit MS to me, and better than 60. If it's been cleaned, let's hope it's insignificant enough plus with age to pass, if you have it graded. Nice, and happy birthday!
