Colonel Green/Eric P. Newman Pedigreed Walker

Impressive pedigree, not so impressed with the coin though....was this really part of his collection, or found in his change
drawer after his death? Considering he died in '37, he must have acquired this one late in life, or it was a pocket piece or
something. Certainly a fellow who had all five 1913 Liberty Nickels could afford a better '16S walker! image

    Thanks for linking it......though apparently it's a pretty dull topic.

    Not sure what to say...maybe it had sentimental value to the Colonel for some reason. Maybe it was his pocket piece.

    Certainly a 'well traveled' piece.... Cheers, RickO

    Perhaps it was part of the Newman "Lowball" set. Besides, it has a sticker! image
