<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Hookman, post: 4188822, member: 99642&quot;]A &quot;large nut and bolt&quot; is not the same as what you bought.This die was actually used in a United States Mint. You see the serial number making it an individual item.</p><p><br /></p><p>Fred Weinberg has a very well-known and highly respected name in the Numismatic world. <i>IF</i> you could prevail upon Mr. Weinberg to provide you with a letter, preferably hand-written and signed, detailing the circumstances of his acquisition and subsequent sale, of this die and/or die pair, and attesting to the correct serial number(s), that <i>MAY</i> increase the value enormously, or maybe not. Such a letter would certainly not hurt the value. That letter would be called &quot;provenance&quot; and provenance always helps to protect the value of a collectable item, if not increase the value.</p><p><br /></p><p>Good Luck and thanks for posting.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
