You could easily be quite correct. But I did some checking on the reales of Ferdinand & Isabella myself when you first asked. I have looked at 8...
Joe - I obviously have not made myself clear. Only 3 coins out of the ten are considered by the Mint to be genuine errors. These particular 3...
I'm curious to see what Nd has to say myself about why the coins did not sell. But in my opinion it is because we are on the cusp of a market...

pnut - Sent you a P/M ;)
It's really a matter of semantics. Is there a difference between cleaned & conserved ? I guess it depends on who does the cleaning or conserving....
Afraid I can't email it Nd - that pic is on my computer that is still down. You can always get a copy from the web site though. But for this...
There are two things at play here - novelty and pedigree. The novelty is that these coins are available for the first time and they come from a...
Since I am only here in the evenings as a general rule I did not get to read this post until just now. And I must say that I am surprised that so...
joesmom - If and when you decide to test the waters on ebay - write to me and tell me what you want. If I don't have it - I'll give you a list ;)
