Really, what kind of premium did it bring?
I don't know about the necessity of handling them gently. They are pretty tough. If they get too badly scratched, just send em in and have em...
I e-mailed the seller and decided to give him a little incentive to take the coin back. I offered him a $25 restocking fee to cover his shipping...
There are two different definitions for Roll Friction and they are as follows: The Purists Definition: An excuse to label a coin with wear as...
