Question for you Siggi - is that incuse or raised ? In the pics it looks raised to me, but pics can be deceptive that way. If it is raised then it...
Let's get back to the topic guys - and it's not farming or preppers.
You can find about all the examples you want from most coin dealers. For a specific example that you can verify, just look at completed auctions...
It's probably a coin from the El Cazador. Many of them look like that, or worse.
Yes, most of them are. But as noted, it's largely because of the design. The other factor that comes into play is that the pressure was kept as...
