^ Love those Classic Heads! I totally overlooked the "D" mintmark on the first one at first glance. Wow!
Must've been quite the collection. I was unfamiliar with the pedigree when I bought the coin in the OP. Neither did I buy it because of the mint error, though that's an interesting bonus. I just needed a $5 Indian type coin, and 1911 was the year my paternal grandmother was born.
What do y'all think was the foreign object that caused that reverse strikethrough on my coin? Fabric? A piece of wood? Interesting.

Fancy label and box, but I bought it with a small premium when gold was $1k lower.

Only one, but it’s a big one:
I’m yielding to @Morgan White on the provenance/pedigree discussion - just seems right to me.

The lineage context provided here (“the brand's lineage as a leather goods company”) would tend to make me think it’s acceptable to use pedigree

For example:
US Mint
Stickney
Clapp
Eliasbergwould qualify as a lineage (descent in a line from a common progenitor) and therefore fit exactly the given definition of pedigree

Yes and “provenance” would be place of origin, i.e. US Mint.
I’m glad we are able to put this issue to rest for ever now.

I know, still a losing battle but I'll stay in the fight a bit longer. Pedigree/progenitor is exclusive to biological ancestry. Provenance is the origin of something non-biological.
Progenitor definition from your link above.
It will never be correct to use Pedigree/progenitor for something non-biological. But, I understand no one cares about that distinction anymore, which is what makes it a losing battle.

And yet in the dictionary they use a non biological example. ShrugThey use the "leather goods factory" example for linage, not pedigree/progenitor. Even then it's qualified as a derivative, not the primary meaning.
But, we aren't talking about lineage, we're talking about pedigree, which again is exclusive to biological ancestry.
