<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1681352, member: 19463&quot;]Recently Randy posted a thread with his new PARL and the one he traded to someone I know (me) so I&#039;ll add here my new PARL which does not by any means replace the one that was once Randy&#039;s but is an additional coin nicer in some ways and short in the most important one.&nbsp; This new coin has great surfaces but was double struck so there is additional forehead detail floating in the portrait as well as mush where the left legend should be.&nbsp; Ther reverse is nice save for an mushy extra horse head just left of the good one and the big problem to me: The rump of the horse is flat with no Christmas balls which I consider important on a PARL coin.&nbsp; Still it is a nice coin and odd enough that no one outbid me on eBay so it cost about the same as the postage (from the UK).&nbsp; It is not a Bridgnorth Hoard coin (the surfaces are nicer than on my coin from that hoard).&nbsp; I like odd coins and this doublestrike bothers me less than what I saved in terms of price from a perfectly struck coin otherwise the same.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]251831.vB[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
