Fellas, leave the tight pants to the ladies. If I can count the coins in your pockets you better use them to call a tailor. Stay thirsty my friends......

<< <i>Thanks all. I was told a very interesting story about how this small hoard of toned 1928 SLQ's came to be. >>
Do tell.
This person told me that almost all of them graded 67 and that one or two got full head.

<< <i>I was told that A group of 12 coins came in from the same source. seems the coins, all 1928's were put in the shape of a clock in 1928 as an anniversary gift. They stayed in this holder for quite some time and were sold as is to a dealer.

That jives with what I vaguely recall having heard years ago. I think that Delaware Valley was the dealer who acquired the group, intact. I have handled 3 or 4 different ones, seen a few others and my recollection is that there are more MS66's than 67's. Either way, each example is quickly identifiable as having originated with that highly distinctive group.
Congratulations on your new acquisition.
