Quite excellent. But in 40+ years of doing this, I can't recall ever wanting to see one of my coins so close up. Looking at those photos makes...
Brilliant song. Ricky was more than just a pretty face.
I can remember as a young child when my parents had a 4-digit phone number. Yeah, simpler times.
No you shouldn't, and nobody has suggested you "assume" it's a replica. All they've said is that there are a lot of good reasons you should doubt...
Fair enough. Having fun is numero uno. But just understand that if it's difficult for us to grasp what you're wanting to do, then it's equally...

You should seriously consider selling the other 70%. There may be mitigating factors you haven't shared with us, but generally speaking someone...
Nice haul!
Or, you could adjust your selling tactics based on what you learned from this experience, and give it another go on ebay. You can also post them...
