constanius Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 The 5 on that 1757 does look a bit like a 6, mind the monogram does give it away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hussulo Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 Novodel To be honest I have paid a lot more for worse so it wasn't too expensive a lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexbq2 Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 I have to admit that quite often I receive a coin and spend a lot of time scratching my head trying to figure out why I ever bid on it in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrel Posted January 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 well, if it ever shows up, maybe i will give it away to a new collector. I do like overstrikes... I just have a bunch of these 1757s. Maybe it will get lost in the mail, and i can put in a claim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Art1.2 Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 For my auctions, I encourge heavy drinking and rampant snipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve D'Ippolito Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Snipping or sniping? (Have you been drinking and posting?) And if sniping, what caliber? For something like this .338 Lapua is probably overkill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saor Alba Posted January 6, 2012 Report Share Posted January 6, 2012 Several years ago I had a few brews, was on the computer, and well, decided on the spur of the moment to go to Paris. So I bought the tickets. Next day I wondered how the heck did I do that, but I never questioned going. So we went and spent Thanksgiving 2000 in Paris. We stayed three blocks from the Louvre and we spent most of our days haunting it, in the evenings haunting the cafes and boulangeries, also pillaged a particular coin shop up in La Bourse. All in all a great trip, all because of a few brews. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For something like this .338 Lapua is probably overkill. I think we both have in common that same "other" expensive hobby. But I like going after bowling pins with 230 gr Pb.
