Y2K.. it just took a while
Every catalog I have either lists it at 25g or doesn't list the weight. Might just be the official weight listed.
Ah yes, I forgot the very early UP version, however, I have never seen this version. I suspect most were either not sold and destroyed or were...
This I answered above. For this issue there were no original proofs as far as I am aware. All proofs are restrikes, however, unlike most Artex...
That's interesting if it's true. I have a bunch of these, but they are all slabbed. Hungarian coins from this period and Artex restrikes are both...

There are a few clubs local to me that I am a member of, but the Fairfax Coin Club is the closest to me. I'm a board member and webmaster for the...
Opened mine yesterday. Awesome gift! Thank you Santa! I will post pics later in the week once we are back home.
Me too. Feel free to message me if you have questions.
