Coin # 14

I want to share with you the newest addition to my collection...coin # 14.



Yes, I posted another thread about Fugio New Haven Restrikes. I posted this coin in that thread, but changed my mind and deleted it...I want that thread to be about why these coins are called Restrikes, not about my coin. I posted that thread based on the research I did while deciding whether or not to buy this coin.



I hope you like it. It's a CRO coin...I did not ask for a hat. image

    Awesome to see the true intended detail of the coin that the copper ones lacked.

    For some reason, I'm not a huge fan of the restrikes. But, a silver one, well, that is quite different to me. I don't know how many there are out there, but there can't be many and that is as cool as it gets.

    Thanks! There are about 40 Fugio Silver Restrikes known.

    "You don't see one of those every day!" is my new motto for purchases. I'm done buying stuff that's easy to find.



    Very nice coin, You Don't See One of THOSE every day!!

    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......
