colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 01/06/2017 6:02 pm In my new book I finish with the last treatment of these Kleebergs bringing the total ~ 150 varieties (Part 1 ANS-COAC listing by Kleeberg), (Part 2 - Colonial Newsletter Update) - Part 3 (Chapter 2 of the Forgotten Book). Probably five known unless yours is on this census: 1.Ringo - 2.North American Reference Collection - Ed Saraffian Collection - 3. Wnuck Stacks 6901 - 4. JPL Collection - 5. This specimen. As you probably know Stacks always used the alloy default as brass - we have brass, brass/bronze mixtures and silver wash over brass or bronze. There are a few silver plated pieces but we excluded these Sheffield types as Kleeberg for no good reason. Anyone who is a Mexican Numismatic Association member has access to the CNL update or you can PM me I can send you a digital of this CNL publication. Its probably also available now in the Eric P. Newman portal along with all the ANS COAC's. Nice pick-up! John Lorenzo United States Report this Post to the Staff

There are some fine pin scratches on the face of the portrait that show yellow metal consistent with the color of brass. :) Report this Post to the Staff
colonialjohn Pillar of the Community United States 1757 Posts	Posted 01/07/2017 11:59 am For a possible plate match compare to the Ringo Collection which was Schaumburg, Stacks June 2009; N.A. Ref. (Saraffian) Collection Stacks Coin Galleries July 2007; Dave Wnuck Stacks November 2012. Its recommended to archive these in your library if you are getting serious on Kleebergs as these are the three principal collections to have crossed the block since the ANS-COAC paper started to classify these varieties with Kleeberg numbers. Wnuck also expands into platinum escudos and such ... JPL Report this Post to the Staff
