Wow! Alright! I wonder what people have to say about that...o_O
Squeezing 2 coins together does not necessarily mean that one coins transferred actual material to the other, it may only have transferred the...

Jello, pictures don't seem to be showing up in your post. The coin I got looks nice, I would think high AU but then again it is very difficult to...
