I think they’re neat too. They’re so thin and fragile appearing though, I’m afraid to handle them, they immediately go into Airtite holders.

Knut Eriksson
Valdemar Birgersson
Those are some beautiful examples of those! I've got a few nice early Swiss ones stashed somewhere, I think Basel

So thin, so fragile. Here's my only one. Sounds like they were deliberately made not to last but to encourage money movement and facilitate sales tax. How did these survive?
