Description
The Reeded Edge is primarily known as a rare coin firm. But did you know that for years we were also one of the leading sellers of vintage toys and collectibles? Those of you who peruse eBay probably realize that we still have an extensive inventory of pre-1970 Dinky & Corgi models. Many of these models have been sitting idle for a decade or more. We realized that the market has changed, so we will be relisting each and every one with a lowered price and may even try a few auctions in the near future. Every one of these models was from a collection or old store stock. With the preponderance of modern reproductions in the marketplace, it is very important to stress that ALL OF THESE MODELS OFFERED FROM OUR INVENTORY ARE AUTHENTIC & VINTAGE, AND CARRY A LIFETIME AUTHENTICITY GUARANTEE. With that said, this particular model is a FRENCH DINKY #1423 CABRIOLET 504 PEUGOT, DARK BLUE, SCARCE, MINT W/ EXC BOX! This model had a production life of just over a year, and was not a big seller in the Dinky line. Consequently, high grade examples are very scarce today, and seldom appear. This version features DARK BLUE BODY W/ BLACK INTERIOR. The condition overall is MINT W/ FACTORY BRIGHT PAINT and NO IMPERFECTIONS. The matching and correct box is bright and EXC, and would be as MINT as the model, were it not for a trivial 5 mm tear on one of the picture panel corners. This model catalogs for 200-300 pounds (approx $300-$450-Ramsey 17th edition). A finer example of this model would be next to impossible to find. Our commitment is to provide you with quality coins and collectibles at the best possible prices. This piece is no exception. Please note, the coin and collectibles markets do fluctuate, and prices occasionally will change. In this rare circumstance, we will contact you first to verify your order.
