<p>[QUOTE=&quot;ExoMan, post: 2474141, member: 72588&quot;]Sadly, this desirable, counterstamped half dollar was toasted in a fire; hence, the dark silver. Parisian Varieties was a girlie show in NY City between 1875-76, so this coin was likely near mint state when stamped. The specialty dance was the can-can. For $3, a princely sum back then, a customer could sit onstage. This show was something of a precursor to the famed Radio City Rockettes. A few dozen of these stamped coins likely exist.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]521090[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]521091[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
