Night and day. Night and day. To use the example of my Aethelred II penny I posted earlier in this thread: Secure Plus image: [IMG] TrueView...
I thought that as well. Definitely fake, but a high-quality, attractive fake, which could have some modest value in its own right - as a...
Yes, these would be more "crusty" than "CircCam". By "crusty", I mean that in a mostly good way, as in "original". At least for your 1949,...
Yes, so sorry - bad news on both counts. As to the color chart, that's interesting, but doesn't really apply to the IHC, since that orangey red...
