Quite honestly I was shocked at the speed this list evacuated. We see on CT plenty of people showing expensive, high grade coins and another...
I looked at the list twice today. Meanwhile someone bought a lot of coins. There were some decent things in the category of which I have too...
I have always wanted a solid silver coin of hers with the 'fancy' hairdo but my only example is this fourree. Who has one to show? [ATTACH] CNG...
