    Wow, that's a nice looking coin. Now hat I'm getting into British Empire coins, I'm jealousimage


    Not to hijack your thread, but is that an Air-Tite holder? Do you recommend these?
    I'm still not sure how to best store my nice non-slabbed coins. Is that foam O-ring thingie OK for coins?

    It is an airtite holder and I swear by them now. There are both black and white rings available with the airtite holders. I like the look of the black, but some feel that htere is a remote chance that the black rings cause problems in the long run. I'd still like to see some hard data on that rather than the supposition I've seen here.

    BU, replacing the ABU I will be putting up for sale!

  • Nice coin, Mr. Wybrit. Is there any rubbing on the high points, for example on the truncation of the neck? Perhaps it's just the picture.

    No rub, just stray light reflection off of the topography of the neck.

    Just a few odds and ends. The biggest sale was the 1904 penny in AFL. That's one of the few extras like that I'm apt to encounter for some time!
