Was that one of the tokens you got at the Summer FUN show Dave?
Very nice!

No. I did buy a raw DIX CWT at the FUN show from Paul Cunningham, but I got this one from an E-Bay auction that ended Sunday night.
There was a dealer from Sarasota @ the FUN show that had a lot (2/3rds of an entire display case) of really nice high AU - MS 65 CWTs that were all slabbed, but I couldn't make up my mind, so I didn't buy another at the show. Looking back, there were two tokens that I couldn't decide between that I don't yet have that I should have gotten at least one of them. But if I did that, I wouldn't have been able to afford the AW Wallace token... I suppose I could contact them and see if they still have them and get them that way...

Ernie Latter seems to be stabbing all his tokens lately. You have to ask to see his raw tokens.

It seems raw CWTs in AU & MS condition at coin shows are going the way of the dinosaurs  . Well, here is the AW Wallace token grade...

Dave, you KNOW I don't know anything about CWT's.
Are you Not happy with the grade? Or am I missing something?

Charlie, No, I am very pleased w/ the grade. I think it's an AWESOME token  . I just checked USPS tracking and it is out for delivery and should be here any time!      . Can't wait to see it in-hand.

Well, I have to say the CWT is better looking in hand. The colors and rolling luster are just amazing for a token 150 yrs + old. This now definitely becomes the best CWT in my collection  . The quest will continue... Charlie, has your next surgery been scheduled yet?

I have to go in for the Prelim blood work and the Dr. has to give the green light. I'll be starting on that phase next week. Then it's up to the V.A.
