 PARDON THE CONFUSION--HERE IS THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SILVER CROWN--THANKS--THE TEMPLAR

  I WOULD LIKE TO SHARE A 1696 ENGLISH SILVER CROWN---KING WILLIAM III IS ON ONE SIDE AND THE SHIELDS OF THE BRITISH ISLES ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE----HOPE YOU LIKE IT

    SORRY ABOUT THE VAGUNESS OF THE SILVER DOLLAR--IT IS A 1896 P---ONE OF MANY SILVER DOLLARS I HAVE ACQUIRED---I THINK IT IS ONE OF AMERICA'S MOST BEAUTIFUL DESIGNS.
                THE TEMPLAR!

THAT IS ONE BEAUTIFUL COIN BUT IT IS SO OLD---WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO TRADE IT FOR NEWER COINS? HA HA HA! SERIOULY--ANY CHANCE YOU WOULD SELL OR TRADE IT??
        YOUR HUMBLE SERVANT SERVANT--THE TEMPLAR

 I NOTICED SOME CONFUSION AS TO WHAT A STAR NOTE WAS AND I WOULD LIKE TO QUOTE FROM A PAPER MONEY BOOK--"WHEN A NOTE IS FOUND TO BE IMPERFECT IN THE COURSE OF MANUFACTURE, IT IS REPLACED WITH A 'STAR' NOTE--THAT IS A NOTE BEARING A STAR EITHER BEFORE OR AFTER THE SERIAL NUMBER. ON THE FEDERAL RESERVE NOTES THE STAR IS AFTER THE SERIAL NUMBER--ON ALL OTHER ISSUES IT IS IN FRONT OF THE SERIAL NUMBER. A STAR NOTE IS USED FOR THE 100,000,000TH NOTE IN A SERIES BECAUSE THE MACHINES CANNOT PRINT OVER EIGHT DIGITS"
        I HOPE THIS HELPS SOME OF YOU---GENERALLY A STAR NOTE IS WORTH MORE AND THE HIGHER THE DENOMINATION AND QUALITY OF THE NOTE INCREASES THE VALUE.
                                       YOUR SERVANT--THE TEMPLAR!

got my order in for the second of the five in the series---i don't plan on collecting all of them but i surely want to get gettysburg when it comes out in the fall----they all look very nice and i think i might get then slabbed?--not sure yet--i have been to gettysburg and it overwhelms you--especially the fields where pickett made his famous charge--they did a nice movie about it--if you like history--it is worth watching.
                                   your servant--the templar
