Curiouser and curiouser.
From the quality of the photocopy I would say that it is old, but I have no idea what that means.
I like your White Metal Dickeson strike. Two original DIckeson pieces is two more than most collectors have.
May I ask what got you interested in them? Do you collect So-Called Dollar?

I'm all over the place. I like the Continental dollars in particular. I have many of the rarest Bashlow pieces and Paul Franklin pieces.
Error pieces, Sacagawea pieces, Elder, just to name a few. If I see it and like it and it's a deal I snatch it. I regret selling most of my Elder pieces some years ago. I'll probably have some more pieces posted to get some insights from the group.
Appreciate you asking
You collected Elder pieces, eh? Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Tom DeLorey.

Tom, we've had a little interaction a few months ago when I posted some Confederate fractional pieces on an old subject line that I think you were looking for information on. You were maybe going to contact the Dallas coin club about the set I posted.
I've been in and out on some of the coin message boards , but didn't really want to hop in and just ask a bunch of questions. I think you cataloged all the Elder pieces maybe and did much research on Dickeson pieces too. Along with a myriad of other subjects. I know you are an upstanding gentleman. That's why I said that I would send the fractional set to you for research. Good to meet you Tom, I'm, Mike Clements

Very nice. I had the copper one some years ago and regret selling badly
Thanks to those members that made an offer, but the piece is gone to a new home
