Hey Steve,
Nice coin, I like it too. Crudely attractive, very attractive.

Hi, I recently won a Maris 65-u....I'm a copycat bidder Morris. I always said, if you want top dollar for your coin, write up something historical or technical about the variety, include some pictures and show it to me and I will jump on the next one I see. Obviously LDS, not the quality of Morris' coin though, but has a lot of fun things going on. It was struck off-center which was mentioned, but it also has 0% rotation, a full medal turn which was not mentioned. Unfortunately I have two scales but no batteries...my to do list after work tonite. I'm going to start measuring the coins ala Mike Hodder (N/S E/W) which makes the most sense from what I've heard yet on measuring colonials. This coin is 29.00mm x 29.25mm N/S always being my first measurement.
I have a question. I know I saw the coin a few weeks ago up for sale on ebay, before I bought it. The seller is one of these 20 million feedback people who are too busy to answer question's. When I asked if the coin was sold and sent back or sold and never paid for or just pulled, he said "one or the other but he was real busy and did not have time to check and didn't know off hand". Did anyone here buy this and send it back, and if so, please let me know why. I like it.
I swore off NJ's about 15 years ago when I was forced to sell off some real nice stuff to feed a gambling addiction. Now, I find myself drifting back to lower grade examples with "character". I know it's not monetarily beneficial, but I always preferred the coin that was carried in some colonists pocket to the feed store, then made its way to the black smiths shop, and then to the pub...etc as opposed to something that went from the press to the vault.
PS - To anyone wishing to purchase anything from me, don't count on my going back to betting sports. Dave P keeps sending me the lines on the games. (just kidding)
Steve
