I Bought the Coin....for the 'Holder'

Ran across this at the local monthly small show today. An elderly dealer that
I had not seen in some years was set up there today, selling off his remnants.
This one caught my eye, strictly for the flip provenance, although the coin itself
isn't bad - flashy with some tone - I just didn't need it. But I've been a huge QD Bowers
fan for decades, so I thought this was pretty cool. And since I was buying several items, I was able to get it for a fair price:

Technically I can’t legally post these on the US coin forum, but since you asked:
Wow! That's some nice coins and paper you picked up, Greg. Congrats. Love the dime. About as nice an AU Seated Liberty as I've seen. Love the reverse toning.

Very nice, like the factional currency.

Great - never saw that before!

Nice acquisition... I would have purchased that as well... The other items are interesting as well. Cheers, RickO
Me too! I have a small group of these in nicer condition. I really had no intention of adding any more, but I didn’t have either of them, their condition was pretty nice, and the seller was motivated (everything came from the same dealer).
When I see that "slab", it reminds me of how long I have been collecting.

Kennedys are my quest...
Nice! I've bought Large Cents for attribution cards and provenance...
