Tom,
Regarding....
"It is the old system...the number of lead balls of 7.65mm diameter required to make a pound"
...really? The math seems right, though I don't want to go down in history as the most gullible person on the forums. Seriously, I have lots of respect for the experienced collcetors on this forum...
-I have nne more question on collectability, regarding AEs, though it may need another thread. I have a line on another 1906AE in similar condition -BUG proofed and, at the same time, a 1900AE eagle is also available, same condition & price range. Given that I am partial to early/imperial era, which would you lean towards, if you had the choice. Investment value is always part of the decision process for me, but not always the one that breaks the tie.
Thanks, Bob
