And the great hoard collection adds a 3rd hoard!!. Great Northern collection/ Gene L. Henry legacy collection (2 from stack's w 57th, another from Binion) sorry grade is blacked out doing a GTG over on CT lol and certain members there "peek" (yeah I talking about you Mr "Z" lol)
I found another for sale and could not stop from hitting the buy button
Probably one of the nicest examples I’ve owned yet.
Prima Beer is an old lager that was brewed in Chicago. It was brewed at the Ernst Brothers' Independent Brewing Association, formerly located at 1440 N. Halsted on Goose Island, starting in 1890.
Tokens were issued by distributors through out the Midwestern United States.
Issued by a distributor in Sheldon, IA.

Picked this 1964-P set up today at my LCS for $20. I like these old snap lock cases. The silver coins in the set look like they were hand picked a long time ago. Nice clean problem free coins, with mark free faces.
Not really a coin, more of a medal. This just came in from my favorite seller in Estonia. The detail in the dies is amazing and the price was right in my ball park.
Edge marked - .925 ARGENT too. It comes in at 36mm and 25.4 grams.
These are from the 1840's and my first purchase of this type.....considering diving into the "model" tokens. I've always been fascinated with the concept of bimetallic money. Since this is my first I didn't want to spend much money for an example. I may soak it in some mineral oil and see if it gets better. I have noticed someone played around with the name on the obverse. There are quite a few varieties noted here
Oddly enough they classify these as patterns. I dont think they mean it as what we see patterns as but non the less pretty cool
.

I saw those.....step by step. I also need to concentrate on the Lauer model tokens made for the US gambler.....lol
I have the box but not the tokens. Oddly, the box is much rarer than the tokens themselves.

I also have one of those "model"pennies. Those are neat little items.
OK, finally took pics of my other pickup, my first $3. It might have a tiny bit of PVC on the upper denticles but I don't care. Maybe I'll have PCGS fix that some day...

They aren't very scarce. As far as prices go, I do not know. A search on ebay for a "British model penny" might turn up something.
This guy-numis-kimel-has a bunch of them for around $30. Search "UK" on "coins and paper money" on ebay to see 'em.
.
.thanks, I’ll check it out. I looked on eBay and several sites but haven’t seen any graded mint state.
It, maybe I’m not lokng in he right places.
