The Brasher Doubloon (20th Century Fox, 1946). Lobby Card Set of 8 (11" X 14"). Called "the single most important coin in American numismatics," and actually sold by Heritage in 2005 for $2.99 million, the legendary Brasher Doubloon, a Colonial-era gold coin, was minted by Ephraim Brasher, a neighbor and friend of George Washington. The theft of this precious coin is the focus of this classic mystery film, adapted from Raymond Chandler's novel, "The High Window," and featuring detective Philip Marlowe (George Montgomery). This lobby card set features a beautiful title card, which has single pinholes in the left and right borders, as well as several pinholes near Nancy Guild's eye. There's some light edge wear, a pinhole at the center, some very minor staining in the border, and a bend at the lower right corner. Card #8 shows evidence of some minor scuffs and scratches. For any fan of Chandler or Marlowe, or any numismatist looking to branch out into other collectible areas, this is a wonderful set. Fine/Very Fine. This Set Sold For $418.25
