This is as close as I can show. ex. Andy Singer, 1994. These are not the finest grade silver and I am less than 100% convinced yours is fourree...
It would be interesting to see a test to see how they handle the same coin shot by several different photographers, in several different ways and...
I see that the NGC guarantee does not apply to this coin so we should not require the certificate to spell Constantia correctly. While...
I felt like I paid too much for my similar coin. It was $69 in 2020. It is quite different in style and layout but from the same year (13) and...
