Once in a lifetime find.....found again!

[leslie(nova scotia)]

Had to make a road trip out of visiting my new witch doctor as she practices a good 45 minutes from my abode.


After dropping the better half off at work I slowly made my way to Windsor stopping at a place that I had dug many times before. Just happened to have the Quota Guru in the trunk and merrily swung away till it was time for my first appointment.


Darn cold but the Guru worked to perfection netting a 925 safety pin with a nifty design on the head and over $7 in coinage added to the fund. Just before it was time to go hit it...meaning a coin that I had only dug once before. In retro spec I can see why my blood pressure was high when checked by my new charlatan.

Unfortunately like the only other one it was not to be the real McCoy!

Anyway the visit to the doctor was pleasant and no surprises other then a few more tests for this and that.


Once home it was time to sample the latest batch from "Treasure Hunters Vineyard." Not bad....not bad at all. Again if you see this last photo sideways you must have visited one of the liquor stores that now sell drugs......sad!

Nicely done! I don't think I'd be too pleased about finding a fake cob. You are more congenial than I am!

Yo Les, that is one fine looking safety pin. Never had I seen one like that. Cool find!

 

[Westfront]

A fake cob is as rare as the real deal here.... I'm pretty sure you will get your genuine one someday!

Leslie,
I like the cob 'coin'.
It's a good representation of a replica coin with the word 'COPY' appearing as in conformance with the (US) Hobby Protection Act requirements. I differentiate a reproduction (not intended to be passed as an authentic coin-like yours) compared to a fake--which is (inadvertently or not) intended to defraud.
Aye, Don......
