Sorry, Bill, anything I could add would be total conjecture. If anyone from the Forum is from Halifax or area, maybe they could talk to Martin at Citadel Coins, as he is the guy who gave me this story, to find out if he knows anything more. I see Bondy lists a buckled CBH in his list of repros, but whether this cobbling was his doing, I have no idea. By the way, the few (two, I think) buckled CBH I've handled both had sliders, if that adds anything to the good vs. bad detail.
