That's what I was going to say. I like coins and I never thought I'd like paper. But they started getting to me the more I looked at them....
lol cool. You knew that would come in handy some day. I forgot you put that together.
Au gave a good reply. Really have to see a pic of it. In all likelihood, we can probably assume it's a normal, BN, well circulated one, as if...
One more thing you may want to know about grading..... Overall, it is the right thing to do. But be prepared. There can be positive and...
