[QUOTE="Mat, post: 1912124, member: 21445"]So I bought this back in Dec of last year & I finally got my Vitellus. I got a great deal on it due to agreeing with the dealer to wait till he was here in the u.s. and ship here for free so we didnt have to worry about NY customs swiping it. It was one of my more challenging photos to take a pic of in awhile, its got the shiny/polished feel to it so no matter how much or little light I had, it didnt like it. So this is the best of the bunch. Cutis Clay gave the coin an OK with other pics I showed him, so no fake. Now its saving for a long time for Otho & my 12 caears will be done.
