Sorry, wandered into the wrong thread. I read oldie but that coin is about 700 years too new to be of interest. :) Sorry for sarcasm, "old" is a...
I would say it depends on my set, (if this is for a set). A or B are my favorites, and if strictly only for eye appeal I believe A is the...
Dude, are you kidding me? Something like AGE and common St Gaudens exist in the tens of millions. NO, they do not all have enough difference to...
