Cracked this one out of an AU details slab. They called it cleaned, but I don't see a hairline on it anywhere, to me it looks like someone heated...
The pleasure was all mine @chrisild. I'm so happy that I had the rare opportunity to catch up with you, it was a true pleasure. I've only been...
Coinfacts and heritage both have articles.
The guy that makes these does not try to defraud and makes it known that these are created "art" pieces. They sell for a descent premium because...
Genuine but polished to death. I'd buy it and keep it as a pocket piece until it looked descent if it went cheap enough.

I didn't know that either. He helped me build my set of SLQs in the early 90s. I responded to an ad in coin world if I remember correct. Never met...
No, just no wine yet. I find that if I use the full screen shot with the zoom on about 20% that I can get a decent representative image without...
