    This is the coin that got me hooked on Wildman coins. I ended up adding some more ex-Newman coins after this one.

    Chris great coin!
    Heres one of my ex: Newman coll. wins.

    Note: old data label/ the dealer needs spelling lessons/ Colombia/not Columbia Medellin Mint not Mendillin Mint.
    Also/ this coin went from EF to MS-GEM 65/ ;)
    I think Mr. Newman collected coins for almost 100 years!!!!! lf - 2022-12-11T170151.673.jpg lf - 2022-12-11T170048.510.jpg lf - 2022-12-11T170124.638.jpg

    John Quincy Adams, sixth US president, is a maternal ancestor of mine. I'm currently reading a very interesting biography about him.

    This one is pedigreed to the Preussag collection, which focused primarily on mining talers and multiple denomination talers from Brunswick. The catalogue for part I of the sale in 2015 is fascinating: https://issuu.com/kuenkercoins/docs/lcg001/10. The pedigree was recognized when it was recently graded at NGC. 20221211_171811.jpg

    All three of these are from the David Cervin collection. His collection
    was sold in 2003. I was fortunate to snag 11 from that sale.

    Speaking of Vickies, here’s one from her final year. From the Dr. Jacob Terner collection.
