I've noticed people ask crazy prices for nice examples, way more than the coins are realistically worth. On eBay right now there are a pair of MS...
Would be happy to see them :)
Retrograde letters and numbers always make me wonder: mistake or illiteracy?
I went back and recreated the search I did, this type is "BG-813". I have no idea what catalog that refers too, but that roughness seems to be on...
Thank you for the confirmation :)
