Fantastic information sir. Thank you.
"Notarized and legal documentation"? Why? Especially the notarized part, that is just silly. If my buddy came to me and wanted to use my coin in...
Well it HAS to be rare, since it was struck 30 years before the mint went into operation. ;)
Nah, that is the ultra rare 1840 CC. :(
And that is great for you sir. I don't think most of us are throwing stones at the concept, IF it works for that collector. However, SOME Registry...
You know, if I were a rational person I would have had you move a ton of the stuff I never look at really. If I were a rational person..... Btw,...

I would postulate sir rate hikes in absence of any other economic news would have a negative effect on pricing. However, nothing is ever in...
I am with others in that if you do not like it send it back. Its the seller's responsibility to provide pictures how the can looks like in hand....
Great writeup. I have always wanted an example of that coin due to its story, but I am afraid I have so many wants they overwhelm my bank account. :(
Its Serapis, a kind of made up God combining many cultures ideals. Btw, I was wrong earlier, it should be more like 22-24mm.
