<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lordmarcovan, post: 7891433, member: 10461&quot;]In the olden days when that photo was taken, circa 2004, the back side of the vest (not seen above) was a nearly-complete date set (one-a-year, not varieties) of holey <i><b>large</b></i> cents, lacking only the 1793, 1795, 1799, and 1804.</p><p><br /></p><p>I needed the large cent set on the back of the vest to balance out the weight of all the coins on the front (which were an assortment of pre-1900 World and US coins).&nbsp; The whole getup weighed several pounds, like a shirt of chain mail.&nbsp; But since the weight was well distributed, it was not at all uncomfortable to wear to shows.&nbsp; It did jingle when I moved.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
