I have to admit that I prefer the silver eagle design for the obverse.
I have responded to many of these ads and they are legitimate marketing tools. It's a pain in the neck to listen to and decline all of the other...
I'd like to read it but cannot view it.
I'm not a big fan of rainbow toning. Even if it is "natural" is still looks unnatural. I guess it's an acquired taste.

I've always thought that Canadian coinage was probably underpriced compared to US coinage.

It's in better shape than most of the ones I see.
