I would say similar except to store with fresh silver coins like ASE's instead. The ASE will start to tone if something is going wrong, and its...
No issue TIF. Everyone has coins that speak to them, and coins that don't. That is what is great about this hobby, we all don't have the same...
Nice coin. The Cash type coins without the sogdian calligraphy are definitely scarcer than the ones with the long calligraphy. Here is a paikend...
