My V75 ASE with expedited shipping took about 2 weeks to show up. I don't know what to tell you other than that you're not alone.
It's a replica of a Virginia Halfpenny.
How young is a key question that needs answering. My recommendation is a handful of mixed foreign stuff with a few old US coins thrown in. Then...
