Do you have any information that can help me to know what I actually have?
Welcome, Brandie!

I seem to remember seeing those 60th anniversary decals on Cové-built bikes. Not sure if they were used by the Amsterdam shop as well. Pictures of the bike would help. See if you can upload some to your album, as you're not allowed to post them directly before you have ten posts. (Sorry about the latter, it is an anti-spam measure.)
