Ah. That looks like a "gold filled" or "heavy gold enameled" hallmark:...
Hey, that's my line!
Don't have to flip it over if it's submerged or buried.
I don't share this often, because the harder it is for other people to find coins on eBay, the better the chances I'll find them first. :rolleyes:...
I think the photos are clear enough. The coin is probably genuine, and contains a bit less than a quarter-ounce of gold, worth about $380 at...
I'm opportunistically buying (including crude cherry-picking) and selling. I think that constitutes a separate, parallel path -- I added in Step 5...

I guess metallurgy's enough of a mystery to me that I'm willing to take that part for granted. They may preferentially form at the metal's...
That's an odd statement. After all, whatever policies you hate most, imposed by whatever administrators or legislators or judges you hate most,...
Separate names with a comma.
