Description

Early European.  Date of coins 1904.  Obverse: Hand with row of coins "The T. Nelson Downs Palming Coin" "Foreign" at wrist.  Reverse: Bust of Downs "T. Nelson Down King Of Coins 1904" around edge.  What you have is an easel 10 7/8" long on the triangle end shape with 4 T. Nelson Downs Coins on one side and rotating the easel 1/3 turn shows a ledge for which coins may rest.  The second piece is 16 3/4" long having an internal slide mechanism which by tilting one way or the other brings about the appearance or vanish of the 4 Downs coins.   At one time a peg projection could bring about this action by moving it 1 1/2" but it is no longer present but could be easily repaired.  All are made of metal and covered with black silk velvet.  Condition very good.
