Almost all coins of this type are extremely poorly struck. Weak strikes, off-center, and the like. Even the ones in high grades are usually unappealing. This one is exceptionally well struck, so I had to get it.

 

Not the best pics. I was in Ireland and looked for coin dealers to pick up a souvenir but the ones I found weren’t close enough to drive to. Ended up buying through the website and he was very accommodating. If you’re interested, Mike at MLCoolcoins is a good guy. Turned out he was coming to the FUN show so he shipped to me from Florida and saved me from customs etc.
