Went to the annual coin show here in Lubbock and the first thing I saw was this. I don't collect "darkside" coins, but this one I could not ignore. Does anyone know the diameter of this coin - I'd like to get it into an airtite and rephotograph it in the absence of the cellophane.
I next saw and bought this. Again, I need to reshoot this sans cellophane. The reverse color is quite vibrant.
After spending a few minutes with this particular dealer he learned that I like Canadian $ toners and produced these (all of which I bought).
All in all, I came away with some unexpected treasures (plus a 1967 Goose I thought was a rotated die but alas I was wrong) for about $50.00. Not a single lightside purchase today.
Thanks for your influence!

There are two ways to conquer and enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.
