The gorgeous piece is sure to keep the stackitus at bay. At least long enough for me to make it to the lcs or my next order arrives. I am always a sucker for anything with an eagle on it. When I saw this in with the generics it immediately went in my stack.

The other side has the slogan "Life Liberty Happiness." It also had a pic of the liberty bell which I thought was suiting.

I didn't notice this when I first picked it up. However when I was looking at it more I saw and thought it was interesting. Can any of you tell me what it means or is?

The date is 1753. What happened in American history in 1753?

Man I'm bad at history but I just searched a bunch to find out. Turns out it's the guys names who made the bell and the year they made it.

This is on the actual liberty bell.

The final inscription are three words centered on the front of the bell, and they are "Pass and Stow/MDCCLIII."

Its the guys names and year they made the bell.

John Pass and John Stow 1753
