Well, it's plainly a 1977. Interesting how the damage moved the metal around like that, on the second 7, but yeah... that's all it is. Post-mint...
I find nothing whatsoever amazing about its condition. It looks totally ordinary to me. A bit porous from environmental damage, as mentioned.
A couple from my early 2000s PCGS Registry type set (20+ year old pics done on a flatbed scanner, back in the day). [IMG] [IMG] One that was...
Nope, not even that either, though golf is a big thing down here (and the resort company I work for caters mostly to golfers). I've played...

Oh, I ain’t gonna give ‘em away one at a time. They’ll go in batches of ten or twelve. With all different designs/counterstamps, as long as...
I took Ladymarcovan out metal detecting once, when we were first dating. Now I realize she was probably bored stiff (not her thing). But she...
I’ll tell you how it works. You send them $995 and hope you get something worth a lot more than that. Maybe you will, and maybe you won’t. Way...
