The big gouge on the jaw and the mark on the cheek should preclude a gem grade, even if the reverse is quite nice. I call this one 64, in my...
I don't frequent the ancients as often. Good to know, thanks for the heads up.
I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Could you post a link to the auction? Show examples you have, members have, or notable...
