Right you are. Now that's money well spent. :) It's also a competitive price, and well worth buying if your needs go to coins/tokens/medals...

Thank you, Christian. Raymundo87, we'll be happy to help. Trade Dollars are among the most counterfeited of coins, though, and images are...
If it'll make you feel any better, Morgandude11, that one is just the beginning for what might be the single finest year of Morgan Proof...
