C-B-D, thank you very much for sharing. I agree, especially at first glance, its a well done fake. Is it me, or do others have a hard time...
There used to be a good dealer there, then an insane man, (no, literally), but last I heard he wasn't open to the public. I am glad a good dealer...
I would agree with crack. Its in the right place for one, and looks too jagged for a scratch.

Shipping coins to China or Africa? Not for me. I buy coins from China regularly, but just a few dealers I trust.
Btw, which shop? Christopher's, Stamps and Stuff, or someone else? My favorite dealer of all time was Ben Marlenee, but when the building his shop...

Thanks for your suggestions guys. I think I will wait. Sorry to those who believe I should just pay up, but I have never had a seller refuse to...

So I bought 8 coins recently. The seller is overseas and listed $9 for shipping on each individual coin auction. He will not respond to Ebay...
A subscription to Coinworld like JWT suggested, or a membership in the ANA, (American Numismatic Association). Without knowing what types of toned...

I find you have to consider the times in which RIV was written. Iron curtain in place, (or earlier). We are used to eastern types the last 20...
Best of luck sir.
