Doesn’t surprise me at all to learn it’s Mint State. I couldn’t tell, based on my looking at the high points of Vickie’s hair. I was hedging my...
Agreed. Leave 'em in the OGP. Waste of money to have to have them graded AND attributed for an error (likely with an unsatisfactory outcome).

Good catch- I just noticed that. It's purportedly a four-reales, not an eight. And while fake eight-reales coins abound, I don't know of too...
I concur with this, if it is actually lead and not environmentally damaged (sea-salvaged) silver.
Here it is. Thanks, @Joshua Lemons.
I’m in. I will also be the standby Santa if anybody gets stiffed by theirs or doesn’t get matched. PS- if you do get any international entrants,...
