Looks like a substantial upgrade in terms of eye appeal.
I tried the same, and had a hard time convincing myself that I could see a difference in orientation between strikes on the obverse.
This is not a genuine mint error. A genuine coin struck so far off center should be distended quite a bit beyond its normal diameter. There...
Lots of folks believe silver will move more percentage-wise than will gold, and they've invested in it for that reason among others, but it hasn't...
