Yes, the owl has been relisted at the original price. https://www.ebay.com/itm/324708522173?hash=item4b9a22d8bd:g:zzQAAOSwvM9ggzGN
I've seen other owls listed in the $7,000 range, such as on Vcoins. Given the demand for these coins, and the cash floating around, that $7,200...
That's a possibility. Apparently the original price was $15K. The "sold" price displayed is $7K. The actual price could have been lower, but...
I assume this information is credible. I just saw a classical owl on eBay that sold for over $7,000. Here's a link:...
Very nice! The eyes are perfectly oriented. Quite often they are not well oriented in relationship to the angle of the head, which in the case...
I have a template of sorts, in Word, using 2"x2" text boxes. I can fit 20 of these on one page. In the text boxes, using the Franklin Gothic...

Here's the Notice of Detention from CBP. [ATTACH] Also, here's my (buyer's) "safe harbor" declaration to CBP. I had to modify Peter's...
Very nice! A great purchase.

That's an exquisite coin.
Here are three owls from Israel, purchased as a lot a couple of months ago. They all crude and show varying signs of corrosion from burial, but...
Yes, I got a really weird post to a thread that I created a while ago on the World Coins Forum. Yes, I think it is spam, using a new member's...
Nice coin! Using serpents would seem, to me, the perfect mode of transportation to use when traffic is at a crawl.
The coin finally arrived on Friday, after spending some time in Washington, DC. The packaging was clearly opened and then resealed with tape and...
Interesting coin! I've always found reverses with four elephants drawing a biga odd, stylistically, since the elephants need to be drastically...
