Comments/description: Tough gold goat and text. This is the actual can pictured in USBC as 102-17. Tarnished considerably more since the book photo was taken but identifying marks are identical. This is probably 102-18 missing its white paint. Bottom opened, flat top. Even if it is not a true design difference, its scarcity cannot be argued! Replaced top lid, correct height. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Cans may have minor canning and handling dings at the rims that are not evident in photos. Please review photos carefully for these subtle indents. Larger dings that do not show and those in other locations will be noted in the item description.
