This is a very special rare coin. It was owned by Eric Newman and he obtained it from Colonel E.H.R. Green whose mother was Hetty Green the famous "Witch of Wall-street". A fascinating story. Rich dove-gray toning blankets most of the coin. This coin comes with the original Envelope with the price that Eric Newman Paid Col. E.H.R Green.Edward Howland Robinson "Ned" Green (August 22, 1868 – June 8, 1936), also known as Colonel Green, was an American businessman, the only son of the miser Hetty Green (the "Witch of Wall Street"). In the late 19th-century, he became a political ally in the Republican Party of William Madison McDonald, a prominent African-American politician. After his mother's death in 1916 and his inheritance of half her fortune, Green built a mansion in Round Hill, Massachusetts. He was noted for his stamp and coin collections.
