Thank you Nancy for the information. Now I have another coin to find to send to a grandkid. She lives in Montana and for the last several yrs I've sent her "Horsey" coins. She's only 11 now, gets 2 'Horse' publications a month, and because of her vast  interest/knowledge of horses, a neighbor just gave her a horse.
