    chrsmat71 I LIKE TURTLES!

    I'm not familiar with these, but it is a cool coin.

    so is it 22-23 mm like the other coin, or is it larger?

    it cast a pretty big shadow, so it looks thick.

    Hi chrsmat71,
    My coin harder and longer about 22-24 mm. And weighs 12 grams (!!!)
    About 5 grams in the catalog.

    I'm an idiot, I was about 2 years ago it wanted to sell because he thought that there is 5 grams.
    But the 5 gram rare coin.

    It is a successful coin, but I understood it immediately, but after 4 years as a tight bottom coin gained.:joyful:
