Thanks everyone for your opinions! I’m glad I went with my gut and stayed out of it when unprovoked. I’m not even going to consider your...
Looks about right for the grade
I don’t get it.
That repair job is simply outstanding.
It’s a denier from Metz, France while it was a bishopric. I had to have it because I simply do not see these fully-struck like this one.

Are they really better than NGC? Are the premiums over NGC slabs proportional to the increase in quality? From my experience, the answer to both...
