Lane Limited’s Original Crown Achievement 2oz tins – 1980’s era

This is the original Crown Achievement that are at least four decades old! These are the old 2oz tins with the “Tin Made in West Germany” sticker on the tin bottoms. The West/East Germany unification occured in 1990, so these tins had to have been made at some point in the 1980’s. Crown Achievement is similar to Lane’s Medal of Honor, but with more Latakia and less Virginia in the mix. Per tobaccoreviews.com:  “The rarest, most costly mixture composed of the finest Virginia, Mahalla, Dubac and Mountain Leaf Latakia. Recognized as the world’s most outstanding smoking mixture.”
