    Well tell her this to calm the frowns image

    This is a scarce variety, M-2-22a, for this date & denomination - estimated 250 - 500 pieces extant. And I'd say you got it for very good price. Maybe that will change the frown to a grin image

    By the way, if you don't have it already, get yourself a copy of the Gilboy book - The Milled Columnarios of Central & South America. And don't worry about the wife - even the book is scarce. They only printed 500 copies - so you can her that too image

    Forget that - you can buy the book on ebay for about $75. Watch the seller - ponterio - they have it on a regular basis.
