Trust me a picture doesn't do this coin justice. Alas, there are dust particles which I just couldn't get rid of.

Those coins are some of the only ones issued on that side of the border that i really wanted. the prices however, kept me from getting them. I havent looked in a while, but i think the issue price was $90, and the seconday market held that price .. no sure how they are now though .....   05-10-2007, 08:23 PM   #5 (permalink) Skylark Senior Member     Join Date: Jun 2005 Location: Vancouver, BC Posts: 256 My Mood: She sure is a beauty. __________________ It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems with just potatoes.
