Hi,

good words. one didn't must wait for saying: Outstanding piece

So they must be!! Wonderfull.
This mint "26" are a special thing. The characteristic is that no other cross is like these pieces. The form is special in a way that one immediately know that it is an B.H. Mayer.
I'm glad to have one in this condition in my collection and the best is that the seller didn't know the Worth. So i paid for a perfect cased piece only 250 €.

I wish you fun with this piece.

Regards
Andreas

PS.: I said like Chris i didn't must wait for the reverse shot but naturally i wich to see more pics.

Mint Crosses

Beautiful crosses Chay! Your collection of "mint" crosses keeps growing and growing , and can only be called incredible. Let me tell y'all, when Chay says mint, he means it. I've seen what he doesn't consider mint, which is 99.99% mint to 99.99% of the collector's.

As i did say to you STOP, there will be no mint left you go on.

Hi,

which you say are very a importantly thing which we should have to discuss.
A definition of the scale for the description of the condition would be an important thing. Why it is so important?
I think we all know that most the salesman, also the well-known do not have a safe system for the description of the condition.
Because of that the salesman discribes the items in many cases as mint which is actually from an objective point of view is "only" in good condition.
Therefore a generally accepted scale for the description of the condition of the items would be very useful for both sides. For the collectors and the dealers.
If I white that the dealers description of the item tunes then he has a customer that often buys.
The only thing WE -not the salesman- have to do is to is the production of such a generally accepted scale.
I think that, on a democratic way within the community of the collectors, this is a feasible thing.

I already often thought about it and i've a concept which I consider appropriate.
I will not write mine now. So that I do not affect a perhaps following discussion.
For such a discussion i'll open a new thread.

Now is interesting whether this topic the others also as interested as me and whether if the other participants it also consider important.

For me the statement from ekhunter shows that it is like that what i think.

Your opinion would be very interesting. is such an discussion usefull? What do you think about this topic?

Go for it! I think it is a good topic. If you need examples of what are truly "mint" pieces are, then I'm sure Chay wouldn't mind posting pictures of some of his, as his are the type that should set the bar as to what "mint" truly is.
