Nice. I'd like to see a full Obv and Rev.
I have been collecting since 1948. I have a lot of 1960 era coins that I put in 2X2's back then and they still look fine today. The same for the...
I grade it Awesome.
I use them in type sets that I am making up for my great grand children (19 so far) and grand children (13). And, I think it is a sacrilege to...
