I can't believe I got this for $84. It is an R-7 with the case.

@Picker1954... Very nice....Is that silver? Weight? That is one that would catch my attention if I came across it at a show.... Cheers, RickO

Having the original case is a big plus!

The medal is Iwonderful, but finding a case in that shape is practically impossible for a 100+ year old medal. I'd have dropped twice that amount you paid for such a find.

Super find. I also periodically file those auctions, but missed this one.! here's one I recently obtained. I like it also.

If that’s the silver one and original case you stole it and that’s one of the best rips I’ve ever seen! Congrats!

.
The other silver you posted above is fantastic! So very hard to find one well struck showing the full boat

Received in today's mail. It looks remarkable in hand. Will send off to be graded tom'w. What do you think it might get?

Picker1954

Hot off the presses. It's supposed to ship out tom'w.

there is one, HK-296, listed on eBay right now with minor rim damage and the initial bid is $429.95 (no bids as of yet). You did well.

Very nice! Congrats you did really well on that win!

Found two HK-296 at a Utah store but neither are as nice as yours. They want $1200 for the NGC MS-62.
