I just bought another one of these! That makes FOUR! I have the exonumia flu and I can't shake it! It has manifested itself in the form of 1914 Panama Canal Medals! I love them and can't help myself! AHHhhhhhh! I'M MELTING!

You have a bad case of good taste. Go buy two more, post images of them, and go from there.

They are great artistic medals.

I don't know how I can help.......I can't get enough Dime varieties!

Very classy post, very classy indeed. Great looking piece.

I was going to post the usual 12-step program, but it contains many references to a higher power and I don't feel like getting a dozen disagrees and flags today.

Yes, you may have a problem, but you'll find little sympathy or even a desire to help you change in this group. You might even say that change is the very essence of our problem.

Oh, BTW, nice piece!

688 that's a low number, no?

688 out of 50,000

Stop buying all of them - I might want one at some point.

Is that part of another digit (0) to the left and above the 688 ?

I can't get over how the bow of the ship looks like an owl's face.

Here is the Vessel, the SS Ancon, which also helped in the construction of the Panama Canal, she also went on to be a Troop Ship after WW1
