$6.00 for $6.25 FV. Free shipping, too... What's the catch? Does Littleton consider this as sunk cost to hook you in? [ATTACH]
I got the Germany 10 Mark "assassination attempt on Hitler" silver proof coin, and although the coin is super neat, the most surprising discovery...
It was via PayPal and I'm unsure if it's from Mr. Kim but it was someone who seemed to be in charge, since we were able to haggle the price and...
I discussed this topic in general with you before, but now I'm wondering if the same die was used from the "Foreign" or English only language...
