What to keep:

High grade higher number?


Lower grade lower number?

    How many were actually struck and numbered? 50,000 seems very high. Were many melted later?

    With such close serial numbers I'd say that the higher grade is the easy choice. If one was a 2- digit or 1-digit number I might have a different answer.

    I doubt that any were melted; these are just bronze. 50k could be right. They're not terribly rare.

    50K is correct. No, they're not particularly rare, but the lower numbers do carry a premium; especially once you get to the three-digit and lower.

    Definite:
    Higher grade.

    's are too close to care.

    That 66 is a beauty. No way I could let it go.
