Nice one Donna! Congrats!
Yeah that’s what I’m saying it’s remained between 10-15 to 1 for thousands of years from Ancient Rome under Caesar all the way until the Coinage...
Fair enough. I thought you were suggesting I was trying to profit off of the fluctuating ratio or something. Truthfully I’m just wondering why...

Amazing! Great coin! Just curious what does 25.2mm 6h mean? I know 25.2mm is the diameter but what is the 6h? Ive seen that #h thing on so many...
