So I'm poking my finger thru a flea market tray of trinkets and doodads, when I stumbled across this nicely engraved sailing scene. As fate would have it, "Volunteer" on the sail, reminded me that was the winner of the America's Cup in 1887. And it's on the appropriate dated dime. Enjoy. Peace Roy

Great looking scene and host coin and a terrific catch on the name of the ship.
