I actually have little interest in the medal itself since it is outside my collecting areas. I do enjoy the original packing or other ephemera that accompanied so-called dollars when they were originally issued. The context adds depth to the appreciation of pieces in my opinion. I recently purchased an example of HK 700a in a card welcoming a new member to the society. The medal shows its age as does the card, I was smitten nonetheless.
