    Real Panama OR. Now That's What I'm Talkin' About!

    Achtung Baby: Not that I am complaining, but I just received my Original Forty-Seven in the grade 8 panama and the brim is only 2 1/2". Not the 2 3/4" as stated above. It's a nice brisa, fairly graded w/ a true fit. The leather is >meh< for that coin, I'd like better, or drop the price &...
