It took me a while to figure this die pairing out. The date grid appears to be M5 to me, not R1. No matter how many ways I measure this date, I don't get R1.
Here is my first year Light weight $2.5 Quarter Eagle, and some backstory
This is a great tribute piece that Daniel Carr made for me last year, a type 3 overstruck Liberty Double Eagle
And here is one that I sent to PCGS a while back to fill a collectors club submission. I knew it wouldn't straight grade with Mr. Thebos name punched across lady Liberty, nevertheless I was pleased with the Net Uncirculated Grade...
How about this brothel token from New Orleans?
"Clever entertainers," gotta love it.
And someone did love it...as someone bought it for $681 on eBay!
(Not me)
I wonder if it can still be redeemed?🤣
