Nope. It has to have a full date. It can be Roman numerals, though. The 1483 coin I have in the showcase plus a French 1567 French Ecu d'or...
The 1475 in the sale is dated "1-awareness ribbon-lambda-lightning bolt." Would you believe that of all the characters in all the languages...
It's a good Morgan "anatomy" diagram. Yes, some of the info is obvious, but terms like bear claw, scribble ozone, and hair vee, how to count...
There were actually three of these dated 1481 in the auction, with this being the 2nd nicest. The nicest was sold first for a lot more than this...
48, I think. My set is complete 1721-1979, then I have a bunch going back to 1481. Here's the set. There are a few that haven't been added to...

Since you don't seem to understand what it means to call someone a scammer, what do you deserve being called, even if you aren't?
While CL is full of scammers, there is no indication that this is one of them. Looks like an uninformed seller.
Canada started producing actual holographic coins (gold maple leaves) in 2001. There is a die with the hologram on it, much as there is for...
Looks like severe acid damage on the reverse. Did your LCS guy test it with nitric acid and render it a bullion coin?

I got a trainee clerk yesterday. I needed to ship a registered package that I had already put stamps on and a pre-paid express package. Totally...
