    @Eldorado9 that 1893 looks like it has been outside in the sub-zero temperatures around the country all week accumulating a frosty skin! Perhaps Santa is delivering her on the sleigh this evening. She looks amazing!

    @Inspired70 PS, love the shot of the boxes...I can almost see those multi-colored Seated gems coming out, one by one!

    Love the look on that Muttonhead and especially lady liberty. What a set of headlights!

    Love this thread, I drank coffee, and I consumed that uplifting joy a few hours ago. Happy Christmas Eve To My Numismatic Family ! Coins stored away are better than cars or trophy houses. Hoping your 2023 gives you endless joys !!!!!! Whatever those joys may be. As the prophets sang long ago in A live performance, I witnessed with the Go Gos very long ago , We Are SPIRITS in the Material World....

    @JWP
    Great book to have, and very hard to find. In fact, I think it is worth more than the Henning nickel itself.

    "Saturday morning Coffee with Coins".

    Love it when our, two of five senses, kick in for this thread.
    The luxurious sense of Smell (Coffee) and then our Tantalizing sense of Sight (Coins).

    Fantastic strike on that token @kaz !
    As you probably know, the reverse is always weakly struck at the middle of "Glassworks" due to the design elements of the obverse. Yours is fairly strong!

    I'll just drop this here for everyone to drool over. Not mine, but rather a dealer friend, who acquired it for a client. This is the Ex. Norweb example, residing in a 65+ holder....It transcends numismatics, and rises to status of national treasure in my eyes.

    Oh my!! My heart just stopped!

    It's one of a handful of coins I've seen in my life that would make me sell everything I have just to own 1 coin.

    Is the new owner putting a full set together of is it a type coin?

    No idea, but I would have to guess it would be part of a very high end Type set.
