Fair enough ... alot has to do also with "COIN IN HAND." Ironically, Bill h=
as no plans to sell the coin anytime soon - but IF a Ryder 40 comes up for =
auction or when it sells privately (this specimen or the others) ... they w=
ill have this information to agree with or discredit based on their own obs=
ervations. There are alot of pieces in my own mind that the true origins ar=
e questionable or still remain unknown - RI Ship Token, Elephant Tokens, Pr=
e-1717 Rosa Americana Patterns, Ryder 5 Casts, Canadian Blackmsith Woods 35=
-46, Stand-Alone non-linked Machin Mills varieities, etc. ...=20
