<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Seattlite86, post: 4416209, member: 59737&quot;]Thank you everyone for your kind comments!&nbsp; I was very excited to find this coin.&nbsp; It&#039;s way outside my normal budget and I still have some coins to sell to make up for the cost, but I&#039;m very happy with my purchase.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;d love to see the coin when you are willing to share.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks Edward, this was actually listed as ss+, so great eye!&nbsp; My Teutonic Order 2T was listed as just ss and got AU53, so I was hoping this coin might land a similar grade.&nbsp; With it in hand, I&#039;m not certain it would make it, but if it did get anything in the AU realm, it would make the price much more palatable. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; This shall remain in my collection for many years.&nbsp; I hope to find more coins that have this beauty and historic significance (soon as I get out of the red).</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you very much!&nbsp; I don&#039;t think I&#039;ll be buying coins in that range in the near future, but I will be giving auctions more attention than I previously have.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks Mike!&nbsp; I would be ecstatic with an AU50, but honestly don&#039;t know.&nbsp; With these old hammered coins, it&#039;s hard to tell if weakness is wear or strike weakness.&nbsp; For that I need the opinions of those who handle these more often.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
